On Production: How AI Is Changing the Green Light Decision featuring Tobias Queisser

Cameron sits down with Tobias Queisser, CEO and co-founder of The Cinelytic Group, to explore how AI is changing decision-making across the entire content lifecycle from development and packaging to marketing, distribution, and monetization. Tobias brings a unique vantage point to this conversation. Before co-founding The Cinelytic Group, he spent a decade as an investment banker advising on complex international M&A deals, co-founded a global investment fund in London, founded Arctic Pictures Limited as an international film production company, and co-founded Cosmo Media Labs, producing TV shows, games, and Web3-based brand experiences. That cross-industry background—finance, technology, and entertainment—is exactly what drove him to build the tools he felt the industry was missing. While much of the industry conversation around AI focuses on content creation, Tobias argues that some of the biggest opportunities sit on the business side. Drawing on his M&A background, he explains why filmmaking has historically lacked the analytical tools common in other industries, and how forecasting models, audience intelligence, and decision-support systems can help producers better understand risk before costs lock in. Cinelytic's proprietary models have achieved 97% accuracy on early 2026 domestic box office forecasts and are used to track streaming performance, franchise trends, and predictive signals for sequel success across major releases. The conversation covers everything from script evaluation and talent packaging to release strategy, windowing, marketing analytics, and audience sentiment, including a look at SocialSense360, The Cinelytic Group's real-time tool for tracking audience reactions to trailers and campaign content. Tobias also discusses how forecasting models should be used—not as a replacement for creative judgment, but as a way to test assumptions, explore scenarios, and bring more clarity to the business decisions surrounding a project.
