From the description on You Tube, here are the people involved
Pictured in the studio are songwriters Lamont Dozier (Standing on the steps at the back of the studio), Brian Holland (The guy who cuts in on the band), Ivy Jo Hunter (Does the countdown), Russ Terrana (The engineer standing up), James Jamerson on Bass, Earl Van Dyke on piano, Bobbye Hall on congas, and from left to right on guitars Robert White, Joe Messina and Eddie Willis. The arranger, wearing headphones and conducting the band, is William Witherspoon. To the best of my knowledge this incredibly rare piece of film is the only one of two pieces of footage ever shot at a session inside the studio known as the Snakepit.

The Supremes and the Temptations are the only groups where we actually see behind the scenes footage @ Hitsville.

But I bet there's more. There's some archival footage of Marvin and Smokey but it's all grainy.

They keep putting it up randomly when talking about the history of Motown, lol
