The Movie Database Support

Hi guys! This is a topic for anyone who, like me, finds it ridiculously hard to add crew credits. smile_cat

My first objective was to build a list of all the jobs available and, thanks to @Janar, the biggest part of the job is already done. My proposition is that we add any other form these credits may appear as and specification when necessary (e.g. the difference between Music and Original Music Composer), but I am open to suggestions. I really don't want this to be a mod-only project, everyone is welcomed to contribute! If you are entering credits for a film or a TV show and notice the on-screen credit is different from the credit in the database, please come by and let us know. nerd

I thought it would also make sense for this topic to double up as an help topic for confusing crew credits.

Please let me know if you spot errors on the list, but please do not request jobs missing from TMDB. The official topic for new crew job requests is here. clipboard

Has there been any discussion about silent film composers? Specifically those professionals who have created NEW scores for old silent films, such as Ben Model, Donald Sosin, and Robert Israel. I've seen them credited with "Music" and "Original Music Composer" but I'm not sure what the official TMDb stance is on this. https://www.themoviedb.org/person/11524-robert-israel

Has there been any discussion about silent film composers? Specifically those professionals who have created NEW scores for old silent films\

The Contribution Bible is very clear that TMDb currently only supports the original version of a film, and that means that only artists that who worked on the original version should be credited.

How should "Series Producer" be creditted? Can we add it to the list?

even though theres a separate credit for just "Producer" for a different crew member for both of those episodes?

I feel like it doesnt make sense to credit two different people the same job title when they are given different job titles in the credits of the same episode?

maybe Im just uninformed but I have to imagine a "series producer" is in charge of different things than a "producer" is, especially if the distinction is made between different crew members for the same project.

Yes, even though. One is a producer in specific episode(s). The other two are producers of the entire series, i.e. showrunners. From what I know, it is a role specific to British TV. Although, if you prefer to wait for an indefinite amount of years until (if ever) someone considers adding a separate "Series Producer" or "Showrunner" role, just do not credit them at all. Anyhoo, I don't think we should continue discussing that in this thread.

Well then it should be added to the list so that theres some readily available information that people can find telling them that Series Producer should be credited as Producer (because at the moment there isn't/I dont think its on the list.

What role should "Designer" be credited as? Holly Pigott in National Theatre Live: Fleabag.

What would field producer be credited as? Just saw it for Danny Jordan at https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3637602/fullcredits/
