Synopsis

Arkelope is an animated short that examines endangered species and human indifference. A middle-aged couple encounters a nature documentary about the decline of the arkelope while channel-surfing. They learn that although the species has survived various natural disasters, it now faces imminent extinction due to human short-sightedness. With a serious yet humorous tone, the film highlights human passivity in the presence of the ubiquitous TV set.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 6

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
