About
This tool aims to categorize directors on a spectrum ranging from 'Art' to 'Commerce' based on their generalized filmography.
The left end emphasises art, with of focus on symbolism and visual storytelling.
The right end emphasises entertainment, with a focus on appealing to a large audience.
Both ends of the spectrum are equally important, and does not aim to categorize any filmmaker as 'better' or 'worse', as you can see some of the greatest directors can lie anywhere on the spectrum. Rather, this just aims to show an interesting way to view the industry.
