Filmography Credits

Casting credits

  • Casting directors may be credited as just "casting" or "casting by" in the on-screen credits); other casting personnel, including casting directors of additional units or for specific locations, should be included in the Casting Credits. In other words, someone whose function was "(casting: Toronto)" or "(casting assistant)" should be submitted to the Casting Credits. The same is true of casting associates, extras/background casting directors and "original casting" credits.
  • The attribute "(casting)" or "(casting by)" should be added if this is the way the credit appears on screen.
  • For TV series, uncredited work, and alternate names, please see the attributes guide.
