way in left field--the last scene in Andrei Tarkovsky's "Andrei Rubliev" is a son of a bellmaker making a bell for a nobleman because the rest of his family has died. It is fascinating to watch though I don't know how historically correct it is to the actual process. He only knows whay he knows from watching his father so is mostly making it up as he goes along, directing 20-30 people on the process. (Critics usually take the story as a metaphor for a young film maker directing an equal number of cast and crew and having to look through it all like he knows what he's doing.)

I like how much media ends up being about itself being made, if you squint hard enough.

It has to be one of the most robust meta-feedback loops, because the "vision" for the scene is apparent to everyone in real life.
