skate double which category should they go into?

After watching Finding Her Edge, I was wondering which category should skale doubles be listed in.

There have been some people listed as stunt double and other as skate doubles, so there is difference.

I read a post that said hand doubles should be Additional Crew as they are stand-ins but skate doubles are more like stunt people standing in to undertake more risky or technical stuff.

At the moment the series skate doubles are listed with the actors but I think it might be better to move them into the Stunts section.

What is IMDB's preference?

Hello leylandtiger

The credit will go depending on where the person was credited in the official onscreen end credits. However, based on what the Guidelines mention, the credits can be added in the Stunts Department.

Hi Fran

Thanks for replying.

I have included the Ref Number of one of my submissions, so you can hopefully see the screenshots used.

The actors & skate double names were shown after the Executive Producers and before the Director of Photography, but there was not a heading identifying them as cast or crew, it was just a list of their character names or whether they were skate doubles.

Should the skate doubles remain in the cast section or be placed in the Stunts Department as mentioned in your reply?

Based on the credit order, the credits look good in the cast section. I would leave them in the same department.

Thanks for posting the submission number to clarify!
