Synopsis

While testing the latest first-person shooter from global game developer Sentinel, video game champion Max Troy discovers that events within the game are being mirrored in the real world. He soon uncovers the fact that the game's protagonist is Orson Creed, a real-life former Sentinel employee who is being remotely controlled by the corporation for reasons unknown. As the virtual and real worlds begin to collide, Max and Creed must team up to uncover the conspiracy before the game's sinister events escalate and spread into the city.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

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.
