How do I add myself correctly in this scenario

Hi I am new to imdb so im having difficulty in knowing if its even possible for me to add myself as an actor even through im a composer but I assume that will place itself once I work in the musical aspect of a film in here. So I am going to act as an infected in the series "fear the walking dead" This would be the first film im trying to add on imdb but I want to do it correctly so no one ends up erasing my information. I doubt they will place zombies names in the series credits but I heard they will add them in the dvd version. Anyway how could I prove I am what I claim to be to who should I send it or what. Thank you for reading and I hope someone can answer these questions. I have already read some of the guidelines but like I said I have explained my situation.

Andre: I take it that you do not yet have any credits listed in IMDb. (If you do have any, please say so, and then ignore the rest of this message.)

You will need to have at least one credited job in order to start getting your work listed in IMDb. Regarding "Fear the Walking Dead", that would mean getting your name on screen in the credits of the original release -- if your name is only on screen in the later DVD release, that wouldn't count.

However, once you have at least one credited job to list in the database, you can then go back and submit your uncredited work for listing. In each case, make sure to include the attribute (uncredited) with each such credit.

See http://www.imdb.com/help/search?domain=helpdesk_faq&index=1&file=uncreditedcredits&ref_=... for more information about this.

I hope this helps. Good luck!

Thank you for answering that question yes so I will do that, Now once I place uncredited is it possible for someone to delete it? How can I prove I did work in the project to the point where it wont get deleted. Even if I am not proven to be on screem (Just in case)

Andre: If you act in a film or television show, but you aren't credited, and you aren't clearly visible on screen, then you aren't supposed to get an IMDb listing for that role. This is explained at http://www.imdb.com/help/search?domain=helpdesk_faq&index=1&file=uncreditedcredits&ref_=... in Paragraph 5:

For cast/acting appearances, you must be identifiable and featured on-screen in the final released cut of the film. In other words, it's not enough to have worked on a production: your scenes must be included in the final cut and it must be possible to easily identify your appearance (i.e. background work as a crowd member or a similar role where it's impossible to recognize the subject are not eligible). If you ended up on the cutting room floor, you are not eligible to be listed. We may ask you to supply evidence of this, so you should be prepared to provide photos/stills/screen grabs to verify that you are featured in the film.

I have emphasized the last sentence. If you are clearly visible on screen, you should get a screen capture showing yourself clearly visible, which you may need to submit as proof. But you can deal with that when the time comes.
