Effort Does Not Equal Views - Proof Using Blender Open Movies

There was a conversation about a film I made in Blender called [Moria's Race](h…

@moriasrace Some other ideas for comparison:
1) How long are the opening titles before the movie? This is the age of Tiktok. Whole videos are just 60 seconds long.

2) Do they address an international audience? Some of the other videos don't use language as part of the movie. How much understanding of the english language do the movies need? a) none b) a little c) a lot? Are the voices easy to understand?

3) How experienced were the makers? Were there specialists for e.g. sound effects or trained voice actors? How many movies have they made before?

4) How were the movies promoted? Were they uploaded to a huge youtube channel with lots of followers? Were they announced at the blender conference? Did people share the videos with their friends?

@MarkusSomewhere 1 and 2 could very very useful to look into. 3 and 4, what would be a way to collect data about it?

@moriasrace As an example for 3): In the beginning blender studio had only one person working on sound and foley: Jan Morgenstern who didn't have any previous experience

Nowadays (Wing It) they have 2 people working on sound and 4 on foley. They are experienced. E.g. the foley artist Victor Shcheglov https://www.imdb.com/name/nm5600022/
worked on over 120 movies.
