No longer able to set accurate attributes

It is critical that crew members are able to indicate their specific roles, as we were before, particularly if they were not the primary person in the role. I have used attributes that indicate what segments of a show I did. For example: "additional photography", "Los Angeles" (or other locations), "2nd Unit", etc. It is VERY inappropriate to take credit for something implying that you were responsible for the whole film. IMDb is often used in lieu of requestion a resume when looking up potential hires. It is important to be able to designate our role properly so we are not seen as someone who takes full credit when someone else deserves that recognition. Additional sound mixer is too vague. We receive screen credit as "Los Angeles" or "2nd Unit" "Additional Photography" or whatever. We should be able to list that designation on IMDb.

Those are usually included in the role field after a colon, for example:

sound mixer: additional photography
