The Village Smithy

Runtime
8 min
Animation

Synopsis

Though he may not appear particularly muscled, Donald takes his role as village blacksmith seriously. He begins by crafting a new iron ring for an oxcart wheel, skillfully guiding it onto the wood, but soon learns that the laws of physics harshly penalize even minor errors, with the consequences worsening each time he insists on continuing. Next, Donald attends to a timid-looking client: the vain "Jacqueline-ass" Jenny, who refuses to approve any of the shoe models he presents and stubbornly resists his equally determined efforts to fit one onto her back hoof.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 2

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.
