Synopsis

The low end of his music was born in the bass strings of Leon Sylvers III. The melodic keys and harmonies were shaped by the Mizell Brothers, and the beats of Jay Dee to set the tone. Cover it all in the cloak of his hometown of Detroit, and that's Zo!, a multi-instrumentalist, producer and composer who has his most ambitious and personal album to date with SkyBreak. Through Making SkyBreak, explore Zo!'s hometown of Detroit and venture directly behind the scenes to learn about his humble beginnings. Tour his home studio in Washington D.C., and travel to a host of cities from LA to Raleigh, NC to sit down with the crew of talented songwriters, producers, and vocalists who helped create the amazing album. Get ready to take a journey through SkyBreak, one of the greatest contemporary soul albums of the year.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 14

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.
