Data Issues & Policy Discussions

I appreciate that IMDB is primarily a movie/tv dbase, but it does have support for, and a LOT of entries of, Video games. However whilst there is a lot of crossover job roles for departments, there are a lot of roles that just have to get lumped into 'additional crew' which seems a bit of a shame an

We, as Set Decorators, and those who work with us in our (own unique) department, would like to be separate from the Art Department. The Set Decorator, as a department head, makes his or her own hiring decisions and our crew members should be grouped with us, please.

I want your thoughts on getting a 'Technology' Department added as part of a production. Currently any member of a Technology Department on a production can only be part of 'Other crew' or 'miscellaneous'.

Is it possible to set up Financial Management Category to put all Accounts people in?

At the request of IMDB they will only consider any category changes with a large amount of members agreeing that it should be changed. This posting is meant to involve the community of members who think it is important to move Choreographers out of the Miscellaneous Crew category and moved into its

For the department that supports every single other department, it seems absurd that instead of having their own category, production office staff must fall under "additional crew". Production Office Coordinators, Asst Prod Office Coords, Prod Secretaries, & Prod Office PAs should all fall under a "

Why is it that Production are still listed as "miscellaneous" or "other" crew on IMDb? Production are the hub of information on all films, we are the ones who send the call sheets, the schedules, who organise for everyone to be in the right place at the right time so that the films can actually take
