Synopsis

Set on a deserted cliff, "Meridian" features sudden lightning and a mysterious woman dressed entirely in white. This 12-minute Netflix original is eerie and disorienting. While it is available globally on the streaming platform, it was not intended for Netflix's 83 million subscribers, but rather for algorithms and their developers. Director Curtis Clark may have had artistic motivations for the film's unusual effects, but these elements were primarily included because they tend to challenge video codecs—software used to compress and decompress digital video—and other components of the streaming process.

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.
