“…Other research focuses on the relationship between macroeconomic activity and aggregate patterns of demand (Orme & Vogel, 2020; von Rimscha, 2012), while Lepori (2015) investigates whether attending comedy films induces riskier stock buying activity. On the production side, Aray (2017) examines Spanish movie production post civil war, Aray (2021) investigates the relationship between Oscar awards and foreign movie production, while Bakker (2012) considers the broader historical context of production and the relationship with industrialization. Beyond these studies, other studies focusing on more macro‐industry issues include studies related to industry subsidization, international trade, and the ever‐present threat of piracy, which are each now discussed in more detail 18…”

Twenty years ago, there were all but a handful of scholarly studies published about the economics of the motion picture industry. Over the first decade of the new millennium, this changed dramatically and many studies began to appear in economics journals and those of cognate disciplines. The following, and most recent, decade has seen this trend continue and the literature on the “economics of movies” has well and truly matured. While economics and marketing disciplines still generate the most output, newer data‐orientated disciplines have increasingly turned their attention towards the industry and its abundance of rich and relatively accessible data. This survey endeavors to concisely but comprehensively review recent literature related to this eternally fascinating industry.

“…For instance, awarded scientists will attract collaborators, become nominators, and enhance the development of their research fields [1][2][3][4][5][6]. A typical example in show business is the Oscar award; winners in this event always attract tremendous attention all over the world and will get much more benefits in their future careers [7,8]. There are a large number of works trying to quantitatively understand the system dynamics and predict the behaviors of performers in the movie industry, for example, previous studies include exploring the dynamics of the movie industry [7,9,10], measuring the significance of creative work [11], predicting the movie ratings and success [12,13], the collaboration network analysis between performers [14,15], the gender disparities and age [16][17][18][19][20], and quantifying and predicting the career development for performers [15,21,22].…”

In show business, awards are conferred to persons and films to provide incentives to performers’ future career development through periodic film festivals and events. In this work, we focused on exploring the growth and dynamics of the film award system, the structure of the award network, and the relationships between historical performance, collaborations, and future career success of performers in the movie industry. We collected data from IMDb, which covers more than 3.5K movie events for 520K individuals with their award-winning and career records for over 90 years. By using network analysis and regression models, we find several novel results. At first, we found the exponential proliferation of awards across all genres of films and all professions of individuals and the uneven distribution of the number of awards in careers across time. More than 30% of the performers have won multiple awards. Second, we built an award network to reveal the interlocks between awards based on multiple award-winning phenomena. We found that for prestigious awards, 47% of the linkages were over-representative than the expectations from the null model. Furthermore, the performers’ collaboration network was highly clustered, exhibiting a high propensity of linkages between awarded performers. Lastly, our regression models revealed that multiple factors were related to performers’ early career success and award winning. Specifically, we showed that along with the performers’ historical achievements, their collaborators serve an important role in award winning after being nominated, with the scope and depth of the impact differing in the awards’ prestige. This work has strong implications for the harmonious dynamics of the movie industry and the career development of performers.
