10	In most productions of film, television, and theatre, the work is split up between a large number of people, mostly because individuals tend to specialize in a specific part of the artistic process. Some are actors, others writers, editors, etc.
11
12	Occasionally, though, you'll find a work where a single person is credited in a whole bunch of the tasks. Sometimes this is because [[NoBudget they couldn't afford anybody else]], other times it's because [[PrimaDonnaDirector they wanted complete control]], other times it's just because that's how they work.
13
14	This is often seen as a sign of dedication or ego, but what can't be denied is that the presence of a Copiously Credited Creator almost always indicates that whoever holds the credits is DoingItForTheArt. Also, various union affiliations or distribution platforms can require that various production-related roles be included in the credits which can actually mandate that the same person is listed several times.

16	Sister-trivia to DirectedByCastMember, ProducedByCastMember and WrittenByCastMember. For a musical example, see IAmTheBand. Often overlaps with the AuteurLicense. Not to be confused with InCaseYouForgotWhoWroteIt.

18	Instances of when a Copiously Credited Creator's project goes sideways due to the creator's [[SmallNameBigEgo runaway ego and lack of talent]] are covered in the VanityProject sub-trope.

25	* In-universe and parodied in one ''Manga/{{Doraemon}}'' comic, which has Suneo converting his garage into a miniature cartoon studio and inviting everyone to partake in his cartoon production... [[JerkassToOne except Nobita]], as usual. So Nobita drags Doraemon into making his ''own'' cartoon with a futuristic Gadget-of-the-Week, the Instant Cartoon Studio, and invites the whole gang for his cartoon's debut. Nobita is proudly rubbing in to Suneo, Gian and Shizuka that "his cartoon is better" until the credits popped up (which leads to Suneo and Gian asking Nobita,"what did ''you'' do?"):

39	* The final ''ComicStrip/{{Nancy}}'' comic drawn by Guy Gilchrist [[https://www.gocomics.com/nancy/2018/02/18 had his name appear five times, three of them in the title panel alone.]]

42	[[folder:Fan Works]]
43	* ''WebAnimation/TheMarionetteTriesToListenToHisMusicbox'': Animator [=IllusionR1=] is credited as having directed, produced, and "terribly made" the video.
44	[[/folder]]
45
46	[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
47	* For the production of ''WesternAnimation/{{Coraline}}'', Henry Selick served as the writer-producer-director-production designer.
48	* PlayedForLaughs as part of the CreditsGag in ''WesternAnimation/BambiMeetsGodzilla'', where Marv Newland is credited for writing, screenplay, choreography, Bambi's wardrobe, and producing. For good measure, Mr. & Mrs. Newland get credit for "producing" Marv Newland. The credits take up over half of the (extremely short) running time.
49	* An in-universe case happens in ''Westernanimation/MonstersInc'': the DVD has the playbook for "Put That Thing Back Where It Came From Or So Help Me!", with basically everything done by Mike Wazowski (a rare exception: "Mike Wazowski by: Mrs. Wazowski").
50	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Up}}'':
51	** In addition to directing the film, Creator/PeteDocter was a co-writer, a story artist, and the voice of Strauch and Kevin.
52	** Creator/BobPeterson co-wrote the screenplay in addition to serving as a story artist, as well as providing the voices for Dug and Alpha.
53	* Domee Shi directed ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'' as well as co-writing the story and the screenplay.
54	[[/folder]]
55
56	[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
57	* For most of his movies made after 1991, Creator/JamesCameron has served as the producer-writer-director-editor.
58	* Creator/JohnCarpenter directed, produced, wrote, composed and acted in ''Film/{{Assault on Precinct 13\|1976}}'' and ''Film/{{Halloween\|1978}}''. He directed, wrote, composed and acted in ''Film/TheFog1980'' and ''Film/BigTroubleInLittleChina''.
59	* ''Film/TheBodyguardThai'' (both of them) is directed, written by, and starring Thai comedian Petchai Wongkomlao.
60	* Shane Carruth, of ''Film/{{Primer}}'' fame, served as the film's writer-producer-director-star-editor-composer. For his latest film, ''Film/UpstreamColor'', he does all of that ''and'' serves as the cinematographer, too!
61	* When making films in his native China, Creator/JackieChan has served at times as the writer-producer-director-star-choreographer, though generally not all at once. He does have the prestige of the Guinness World Record for "Most Credits in One Movie" for his 2012 movie ''Chinese Zodiac''[[note]]A whopping 15 credits, beating out previous record-holder Creator/RobertRodriguez and his 11[[/note]]: lead actor, director, writer, producer, executive producer, cinematographer, art director, unit production manager, catering coordinator, stuntman, stunt coordinator, gaffer, composer, props, and singer of its theme song.
62	* Creator/CharlieChaplin wrote, directed, produced, starred in, and composed the music for many of his films.
63	* Creator/BusterKeaton spoofed this in his 1921 film ''Film/ThePlayhouse'', in which he himself goes to a variety show, sits next to himself (thanks to trick photography) and examines the programme, in which every single credit is to "Buster Keaton". Sure enough, not only does Keaton play all the stage performers (more trick photography), he's also every member of the orchestra. No surprise then that he comments to his neighbour "This fellow Keaton seems to be the whole show."[[note]]Keaton did this as a TakeThat to actor/director/producer Thomas H. Ince, who was always lavishly crediting himself in his movies. Keaton himself averted the trope by giving co-director and co-writer credit on ''The Playhouse'' to Eddie Cline, even though Cline didn't really deserve it.[[/note]]
64	* For ''Film/StepsTroddenBlack'', Keane Chan Hodges handled screenwriting, directing, make-up effects, visual effects, camera operation, editing, general production design including designing the aliens and space ship, pyrotechnics, boom operation, and sound mixing, as well as playing a minor role. Given that the film was made on a [[NoBudget budget of around 500 dollars,]] this was a necessity.
65	* Creator/TheCoenBrothers have served as writer-producer-director-editors on nearly all their films, although due to union regulations, their editing is done under the pseudonym "Roderick Jaynes".
66	* ''Film/AttackOfTheKillerTomatoes''. Costumes-production management-assistant director-second unit director-properties-all purpose bit player-location scout Costa Dillon, producer-director-editor-music composer-music editor John De Bello
67	* In a number of his films, Creator/ClintEastwood serves as the producer-director-star-composer, though usually not all four at once.
68	* Creator/TylerPerry movies are ''famous'' for this. He does the acting, the music, the writing...you name it.
69	* [[Music/WuTangClan RZA]] served as the writer-director-star-composer for his kung fu epic ''Film/TheManWithTheIronFists'', creating a bit of confusion in the credits where, depending on the role, he is credited as either "RZA" or "''[[SpellMyNameWithaThe The]]'' RZA".
70	* Creator/OrsonWelles co-wrote, directed, produced, and starred in ''Film/CitizenKane'', as well as many of his other films for that matter. After Welles served as writer-director-producer-star on ''Film/TheLadyFromShanghai'' for example, studio head Harry Cohn swore off hiring a single person to do all the jobs ever again, because it made the person impossible to fire.
71	* In ''Film/TheRoom2003'', Creator/TommyWiseau serves as the writer-director-star-executive producer-producer. No, that last one is ''not'' a typo.
72	* Creator/EdWood did this quite a lot.
73	** He produced, directed and wrote ''Film/Plan9FromOuterSpace'' as well as ''Film/TheSinisterUrge'', ''Film/NightOfTheGhouls'' and ''Film/BrideOfTheMonster'' (the last of which he co-wrote).
74	** He directed, wrote and starred in ''Film/GlenOrGlenda'', though his acting credit used the name "Daniel Davis" to cover up his ActorSharedBackground.
75	* ''[[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3813094/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 Headlock]]'' was directed and written by, and stars, Mark Polish.
76	* Creator/RobertRodriguez usually directs, writes, produces, composes the score, mixes the sound, has some input in special and visual effects and edits. He often does the camerawork himself and has credited his willingness to do everything himself to allowing him to accomplish otherwise "impossible" shooting days such as 73 camera angle changes in 13 hours. Occasionally he also manages to have a CreatorCameo. On ''Film/PlanetTerror'' he's also (half)jokingly credited as his own chef.
77	** Rodriguez took this to its greatest extreme on ''Film/ElMariachi'', the film that unexpectedly let him break into Hollywood. In order to keep costs down, he had no crew whatsoever and recruited the actors to help whenever he needed extra hands. As recounted in his book about the subject, ''Rebel Without a Crew'', he also edited the film himself (using the same awkward videotape editing method he grew up using as a kid) and did all of the sound recording and dubbing. After he got a distribution deal and full Hollywood resources, he balked at spending $3000 for professionals to take 3 weeks subtitling the film and did it himself over a weekend.
78	* In his early days, Creator/PeterJackson. On most of his early films, he was director, writer, producer, camera operator, editor, and worked on special and visual effects (he later founded Weta Digital company not to do the latter himself). In ''Film/BadTaste'', he also acts (later movies only had him in a CreatorCameo).
79	* Creator/LakeBell wrote, directed, starred in and co-produced ''In A World''.
80	* Ukrainian independent filmmaker Creator/NikolayYeriomin is this nearly always because of NoBudget. Just see his filmography to get the idea.
81	* ''Film/ManosTheHandsOfFate'' was directed, written, produced by and starred Harold P. Warren.
82	* Creator/KevinSmith was a director, writer, co-producer, and co-editor for ''Film/{{Clerks}}'', and he also played the minor character Silent Bob.
83	* ''Film/InWhichWeServe'' credits Creator/NoelCoward as Star, Producer, Writer, Composer and Director, the last credit being shared with Creator/DavidLean. However, the 'director' part is debatable, the original intention was for Coward to direct the actors and Lean to direct the action sequences, but as the film went on Coward became bored with the film-making and left most of the work to Lean.
84	* ''Film/BenAndArthur'' credits writer-director-actor Sam Mraovich as having a hand in nearly ''every'' aspect of film production, including editing, makeup, and composing the score.
85	* John Rad's name appears in the opening credits so much it achieves BrickJoke status in ''Film/DangerousMen''.
86	* Creator/NeilBreen does this so much that he makes up phony companies to credit and then admits later in the credits that any corporation with the initials "NB" is just him. Or just puts things like "Makeup: none".
87	* Creator/ClintEastwood acts in, directs, produces, and writes the score of ''Film/MillionDollarBaby''. (all the other movies of his where Clint is credited as a composer are ones where he's not in front of the camera; at most, some like ''Film/GranTorino'' have him writing or performing a song)
88	* Creator/StanleyKubrick mostly got writer-producer-director credits. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filmography_of_Stanley_Kubrick#Filmography His early work]] had him doing more things, and ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey'' also had him editing and helping with the effects (the latter is even the source of his only competitive Academy Award).
89	* Creator/PeterHyams is the writer, producer, cinematographer and director of ''Film/TwoThousandTenTheYearWeMakeContact''. He'd continue to do his own cinematography in all his movies afterward.
90	* Creator/ZackSnyder produced, wrote, directed and did the cinematography of ''Film/ArmyOfTheDead'' and ''Film/RebelMoon''.
91	* Creator/AlexandreAstier produced, wrote, directed, edited, played in and composed the soundtrack of TheMovie of his ''Series/{{Kaamelott}}'' series, ''Film/KaamelottPremierVolet''.
92	* Creator/BruceLee not only starred in ''Film/WayOfTheDragon'', but he also directed, produced, and wrote it, as well as choreographing the action.
93	* ''Film/HarlemNights'' was written, directed, and starring Creator/EddieMurphy.
94	* Creator/SylvesterStallone wrote and starred in the first six ''Film/{{Rocky}}'' films and directed the second, third, fourth and sixth films.
95	* ''Film/{{Music\|2021}}'': In addition to director, co-writer and producer, Music/{{Sia}} also composed the soundtrack (in the form of new original songs), as well as the editing.
96	* Creator/DanAykroyd directed, produced co-wrote and played two roles in ''Film/NothingButTrouble''.
97	* Creator/JohnWayne directed, produced and starred in ''Film/TheAlamo1960''.
98	* Creator/JoshRadnor directed, wrote, and headlined ''Film/{{Happythankyoumoreplease}}''. He did the same for ''Film/LiberalArts'', but this time he also produced it.
99	* Creator/BritMarling co-wrote, produced, and headlined both ''Film/AnotherEarth'' and ''Film/TheEast''. She also co-wrote, produced, and is a main cast member of ''Film/SoundOfMyVoice'' (Creator/ChristopherDenham plays the lead instead).

102	[[folder:Literature]]
103	* An in-universe example occurs in ''Literature/{{Porno}}''. Nikki and Rab write the script to the titular porno ''[[ParallelPornTitles Seven Rides for Seven Brothers]]'' and Nikki is the star, but when the film has been edited, Sick Boy takes all the credit. Nobody is impressed, but when the police get onto Sick Boy, [[HoistByHisOwnPetard he is the one whose name is on everything]].
104	[[/folder]]
105
106	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
107	* ''Series/AngryBoys''. Chris Lilley served as creator, writer, director, producer, executive producer, and composer... while playing [[ActingForTwo all six main characters]]. He also wrote, co-produced, and starred (also as multiple characters) in his previous two series, ''Series/SummerHeightsHigh'' and ''We Can Be Heroes: Finding the Australian of the Year''.
108	* Creator/LouisCK was the writer, producer, director, editor, and star of the sitcom ''Series/{{Louie}}''.
109	* Creator/LenaDunham writes, produces, directs, and stars in her HBO series ''Series/{{Girls}}''.
110	* Creator/JackWebb served as the credited producer-director-star of every single episode of ''Series/{{Dragnet}}'' as well as the revival series ''Series/{{Dragnet}} 1967''. He very, very occasionally also wrote an episode.
111	* ''Series/{{MASH}}''. Over the course of eleven seasons, Creator/AlanAlda slowly gravitated to various different jobs on the show[[note]]his accountant had stolen all his money and he needed the extra income the other roles brought in[[/note]]; aside from just playing Hawkeye, he eventually began writing for the show, then directing for the show, and finally became an unofficial showrunner with producer Burt Metcalfe after the departures of co-creators/producers Larry Gelbart and Gene Reynolds (the latter also served as co-creative consultant with Alda).
112	* Spoof example -- ''Series/GarthMarenghisDarkplace'' credits Creator/GarthMerenghi as writer, director, producer, star, and even sneaks in a composer credit ("based on tunes whistled by").
113	* On ''Series/{{Psych}}'', Creator/JamesRodayRodriguez became more involved in behind-the-scenes work to become a director, writer, and executive producer alongside being the show's headliner.
114	* ''Series/{{SMILF}}'' is a TV show created by, written by, executive produced by and starring one Frankie Shaw.
115	* Similarly, ''Series/CrazyExGirlfriend'' was co-created, co-executive produced, co-written, and stars Rachel Bloom. It helps, however, that her co-writer and co-creator, Aline Brosh [=McKenna=] is the actual showrunner of the show.
116	* Jean-Luc Azoulay, creator of many French TV favorites such as ''Series/ClubDorothee'' and ''Series/LesFillesDaCote'' liked to be heavily credited for his shows, generally under his alias of Jean-François Porry.
117	* Creator/DanLevy produces, writes, stars in, edits, sometimes directs, and is the ShowRunner for the series he created, ''Series/SchittsCreek''. He also collaborates closely with costume designer Deb Hanson on the show's wardrobe and meticulously supervises the art direction.
118	* On ''Series/TheRedGreenShow'', this was parodied with ''Ranger Gord's Educational Films'', which stated that they were written, drawn, animated, voiced by and starring Ranger Gord.
119	* Creator/BillCosby in ''Series/TheCosbyShow'': Created by Ed. Weinberger & Michael Leeson and William Cosby, Jr., Ed.D.; Theme by Stu Gardner & Bill Cosby; Executive Consultant: William H. Cosby, Jr.; A Creator/CarseyWerner production in association with Bill Cosby.
120	* Every episode of ''Series/{{Intimate}}'' is written and produced by series stars Bruno Alexander, Emil Belton, Oskar Belton, Leo Fuchs, and Max Mattis; directed by Alexander, Belton, Belton, and Fuchs; and edited by Alexander, Belton, and Belton. Mattis does not co-direct but gets a ''second'' producing credit (as executive producer). They are, naturally, also the creators, but (probably due to the series' conceit that they are starring [[AsHimself as themselves]]) the show does not use any 'created by' credits.
121	* Creator/BritMarling:
122	** Marling long with longtime ProductionPosse Zal Batmanglij created, wrote, directed, and executive produced ''Series/TheOA'', with Marling also playing the lead role.
123	** Marling and Batmanglij also created, wrote, directed, and executive produced ''Series/AMurderAtTheEndOfTheWorld'', with Marling also having a lead role. This series also marks Marling's directorial debut.
124	[[/folder]]
125
126	[[folder:Music]]
127	* In 1954, Bobby Sherwood had a recording session set up with other musicians at Rudy Van Gelder's studio in Hackensack, NJ but Hurricane Edna hit on the day of the session and only Sherwood made it to the studio, having arrived 20 minutes before the storm. Instead of wasting the expensive studio time, he went ahead and recorded two songs entirely by himself: "Yes Indeed" and "Brown Eyes, Why Are You Blue?" On the picture sleeve for the single featuring those two songs, he's credited for first trumpet, second trumpet, third trumpet, french horn, trombone, piano, guitar, bass, drums, vibraphone, four vocal parts and arrangements.
128	[[/folder]]
129
130	[[folder:Pro Wrestling]]
131	* An in-universe example comes from Wrestling/WWENXT for [[http://prowrestlingnow.tumblr.com/post/87946347597 the credits]] of Wrestling/TylerBreeze's music video for his theme song ''#Mmmgorgeous'' He wrote the song, performed the song, inspired the song/video, edited the video, produced the video, directed the video. [[OverlyLongGag He's also]] in the special thanks section and is listed as Most Gorgeous.
132	[[/folder]]
133
134	[[folder:Puppet Shows]]
135	* On the Creator/PBSKids show ''Series/DonkeyHodie'', a spinoff of ''Series/MisterRogersNeighborhood'', David Rudman is credited as a creator, executive producer, director, writer, storyboard artist, puppet designer, song lyricist & performer and theme song performer, as well as the puppeteer of Bob Dog, Grampie Hodie and Yodel Bird.
136	[[/folder]]
137
138	[[folder:Radio]]
139	* In a Christmas episode of The Archers there was the in-universe "Linda Snell presents a Linda Snell production of Linda Snell's adaptation of A Christmas Carol. Directed by Linda Snell."
140	[[/folder]]
141
142	[[folder:Video Games]]
143	* ''VideoGame/CaveStory'' was created entirely by one man in his spare time. Daisuke Amaya wrote the scenario, drew the artwork and scenery, animated the sprites, designed all of the levels, composed all of the music, and programmed the entire game engine, all by himself over the course of ''five years''.
144	* ''Franchise/TouhouProject'' might be the ultimate example, "Team Shanghai Alice" consists of one man, who normally does all of the graphics, sound, and programming for each game himself.
145	* The Creator/{{Valve}} new employee handbook states that this is the company's default mode of operations. It notes that this is part of why they only have a plain alphabetized list for their credits.
146	* In ''[[VideoGame/{{Turrican}} Super Turrican]]'' for the NES, all four names credited with the game's development are Manfred Trenz.
147	* Creator/HideoKojima indulged in this trope for ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolidVThePhantomPain'' - atypically, though, it may have been more of a TakeThat to {{Creator/Konami}}, as they'd removed his name from the cover prior to release.
148	[[/folder]]
149
150	[[folder:Web Animation]]
151	* In ''WebAnimation/TheDementedCartoonMovie'', the credits for the extremely short "abbridged version" are "Brian Kendall presents / A Brian Kendall Production / Of a Brian Kendall Film." A more pedantic version of this opens the actual movie, with the end replaced with BlahBlahBlah.
152	* A lot of the longer ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'' cartoons had credits featuring a variation of "Written, Drawn, Directed and Animated by the Brother Chaps", with voice credits to Matt Chapman and Missy Palmer. This would be increasingly lampshaded in later shorts:
153	** ''A Decemberween Pageant'' has "The Usual Credits" shown on-screen.
154	** ''Homestar Presents: Presents'' has "BlahBlahBlah The Brothers Chaps".
155	** ''Jibblies 2'' has "an incredibly scary Halloween-type toon made by the same people who always make these cartoons."
156	** ''Most in the Graveyard'' has "The credits for the 9th Homestar Halloween Cartoon...are the same as the first 8!"
157	* Japanese web animation ''[[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4X5MIgeGzQBl33ajzf7BZXWgC3U_zobD Matatabi Movie Labo]]'' has anime-style opening and closing credits where Karamel is credited for producing, creating, co-writing, directing, editing, music, character design, and most of the voices. Gurun is credited slightly less for co-writing and additional voices.
158	* ''WebAnimation/TheMostEpicStoryEverToldInAllOfHumanHistory'': The credits are exactly as follows: "Literally Everyone Voiced by The Most Epic Person Ever", "Animated by The Same Guy", "Written by Also The Same Guy", "Directed and Produced by Guess Who? The Same Guy", and "Also Edited by The Same Guy Lol".
159	* ''WebAnimation/MurderDrones'': Creator Liam Vickers has a "written and directed by" credit for every episode, as well as credits for concept art, 2D artist, and [[DescendedCreator the occasional minor voice role]]. The {{pilot}} episode additionally credits him for art direction, voice direction, storyboarding, animatic, greybox art, composition, and VFX.
160	* The early seasons of ''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue'' have just about everything but the music done by Creator/BurnieBurns, though later ones downplayed this for him. [[WebAnimation/RedVsBlueTheChorusTrilogy The Chorus Trilogy]] had Creator/MilesLuna writing, directing, voicing Felix, and editing, along with doing machinimating, compositing and casting in two of the seasons. And in [[WebAnimation/RedVsBlueTheShisnoTrilogy Season 15]], Creator/JoeNicolosi wrote, directed, edited, voiced Jax Jonez, performed a song in the end credits and did some compositing (in season 16, only the music part wasn't repeated by him). Following an aversion of this in Season 17, [[WebAnimation/RedVsBlueZero Season 18]] had Creator/TorrianCrawford responsible for the story, directing, animating, editing, and doing motion capture ([[https://twitter.com/AnimatedTorrii/status/1339679237024919552 he lampshades it in the intro here]]).
161	* ''WebAnimation/ZeroPunctuation'' does this for a joke as Yahtzee describes ''VideoGame/CliveBarkersJericho'', calling it "Clive Barker's Clive Barker's Jericho by Clive Barker."
162	[[/folder]]
163
164	[[folder:Web Videos]]
165	* ''WebVideo/EconomyWatch'': David does the directing, writing and editing of every episode, with occasional co-writers.
166	* The credits of [[WebVideo/TheIrateGamer Christopher Bores']] show ''Haunted Investigators'' list Bores as Executive Producer, Editor, Post Production, and Music Editor. ''No one else'' is credited apart from a "Special thanks to all parties responsible for making this show possible" credit.
167	* The four members of WebVideo/ShipwreckedComedy each have multiple jobs on each product, including actor and producer (all four of them), writer (Sean and Sinead Persaud), and costumer (Sinead, Creator/MaryKateWiles and Sarah Grace Hart).
168	* PlayedForLaughs in the SeriesFauxnale of ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries'', where the credits list every character who ever appeared, and their voice actor. It's just Creator/LittleKuriboh listed [[ManOfAThousandVoices over and over]], with a handful of other voice actors.
169
170	[[/folder]]
171
172	[[folder:Western Animation]]
173	* CreatorCouple Ross Bagdasarian, Jr. and Janice Karman are heavily involved in many different aspects of production of various different projects and material for ''Franchise/AlvinAndTheChipmunks'', ranging from supplying the voices for the characters, to writing and producing original songs, albums, cartoons, and movies. Janice, in particular, directed ''WesternAnimation/TheChipmunkAdventure'' (after the unidentified director they had to begin with backed early on), and also headed the color department for both that movie and [[WesternAnimation/AlvinAndTheChipmunks the 1980s cartoon series]].
174	* Creator/AristomenisTsirbas had the story written, the characters designed and most of the animatics done for ''WesternAnimation/BattleForTerra''. Snoot Entertainament needed only to add post-production effects and sign on voice acting talent to make this work suitable for Creator/{{Lionsgate}} distributorship.
175	* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'': Trey Parker is credited as co-creator, co-executive producer, writer, director, additional music, and also voices half the cast. Matt Stone does slightly less.
176	* In-universe example: In ''WesternAnimation/TheCritic'', ''Le Artiste et Mort'', Jay's student film from college, was written, directed, starred, and catered by Jay himself.
177	* Subverted with ''WesternAnimation/RockyAndBullwinkle'' and other cartoons produced by Creator/JayWard. Ward's partner, Bill Scott, did multiple jobs on the shows, being the co-producer, head writer, and voice actor. However, he only received screen credit as a producer; he declined credit for his other roles specifically to avoid having his name appear over and over.
178	* A few of the ''WesternAnimation/HashimotoSan'' shorts would have creator Bob Kuwahara credited for directing, writing, and animating.
179	* The 1970 animated adaptation of ''[[WesternAnimation/HortonHearsAWho1970 Horton Hears a Who!]]'' has Chuck Jones credited as a director, co-producer, voice actor (with Creator/JuneForay), and storyboarding (with Bob Ogle). Dr. Seuss himself is listed for writing the original book, as well as co-producing with Jones (credited as Ted Geisel), lyrics, and teleplay for the adaptation.
180	* Creator/MarkEvanier [[https://www.newsfromme.com/2019/09/05/ask-me-producer-credits/ said]] he wore many hats in ''Westernanimation/GarfieldAndFriends'', but the credits reduced it - he was the showrunner, voice director, did voice casting and a few other things, but his credit was at first "Written by" and then "Written and co-produced by". Evanier also mentions that a name over and over can be unintentionally funny, such as an independent movie he saw where someone was credited ''sixteen times''.
181	* In-universe example in the ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'' episode "Kon Ducki", in which not only is Plucky credited for everything on the epic movie ''The Voyage of the Kon-Ducki'' down to the catering, but he has three production companies named after himself.
182	* Obscure 1992 Christmas special ''Up on the Housetop'' has Jerry Reynolds and Russ Harris both getting credit for producing, writing, directing, and voice acting. Jerry Reynolds has additional screen credits for music, songs, animation, and backgrounds, while Russ Harris has additional credit for camera.
