Raiders of the Lost Ark

Visible crew/equipment: Once Indy & Sallah have descended into the Well of the Souls, they slowly begin to approach the concrete structure that houses the Ark. As they approach, the camera pulls back to reveal the huge scale of the Well of the Souls, and across the top of the screen, in perfect silhouette, is the lighting rig. (01:05:10)

Suggested correction: What you see is an ornamental panel across the lateral beam of the wooden structure over the ark, a bird I think. The panel is visible again from the back side when they are lifting the ark up with the poles, and from the front when Indy and Marion are first trapped and again as the large statue is crashing into the wall.
