Synopsis

Filmed with three cameras, this fascinating documentary captures prolific American glass artist Dale Chihuly re-creating his past works for an audience in the fishbowl-like ""hotshop"" of the Museum of Glass in Tacoma, Wash. As part of Chihuly's weeklong residency at the museum, he invites glass blowers he's worked with over the course of his 30-year career to join him once again, revisiting 13 of his most well-known series.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 15

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.
