Synopsis

An unflinching look at a music industry that exists far from the overnight sensations of television's ""American Idol"" and ""The X Factor,"" THIS TIME follows six diverse recording artists on the verge of their next moment in the spotlight. They've sung back-up up for Elvis Presley, Aretha Franklin, Dionne Warwick, Dusty Springfield and Jimi Hendrix, been homeless while their songs were on the charts, struggled to fill tiny cabarets and fight against the odds of the music industry -- all while holding tight to their dignity and dreams. Accompanied by a soaring soundtrack of extraordinary music, the film tracks their gut-wrenching determination to turn up the volume on their careers. From the streets of South Central Los Angeles to New York's Park Avenue, THIS TIME takes you on a unique musical journey, in this story of the transformative power of creativity...

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 12

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.
