Genre Heiarchical Graph Chart

This is a heiarchical graph chart depicting the aggregated revenue of every genre. Drilling Down allows the user to sort by every half decade, giving the user a more holistic understanding of the trend and popularity of every genre, and finally every movie, as well as its profit and budget.

By using a bar chart race with scrubber to visualize the growth of every genre, the user is able to dynamically pin point the ranking changes as well as relative size in real time.

Genre Bar Chart Race

Selecting items in the legends allows the user to highlight different genres. In General, high rating movies have higher popularity, although with generally weak correlations, especially on less popular genres such as History and War.
