Dolphins and Whales 3D: Tribes of the Ocean

Documentary

Synopsis

This documentary explores the coral reefs of the Bahamas and the waters of the Kingdom of Tonga to offer a close encounter with the surviving tribes of the ocean: wild dolphins and belugas, the bond between a humpback mother and her newborn calf, the singing humpback males, an orca regarded as the mighty king of the ocean, and the gentle manatee. It highlights little-known aspects of these creatures, emphasizing their capacity for sophisticated communication and social interaction. The film documents the lives of these graceful, majestic yet endangered sea animals.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 7

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.
