Face Locations in the Average Movie
**Source:** CineFace (my own repo): https://github.com/astaileyyoung/CineFace
All the data and code can be found there. Visualizations were created in Python with Plotly.
For this project, I ran face detection on over 6,000 movies made between 1900 and 2025. I then took a random sample of 10,000 faces from the \~70 million entries in the database. Because the "rule of thirds" is often discussed in relationship to cinematic framing, I also broke the image into a 3x3 grid and averaged the results from each cell.
