Script Supervisors Feel Cheated
We are NOT "miscellaneous crew", but because IMDB calls us that anyway, our "known for" sections are a complete disaster. As a script supervisor in film/tv, I have one of the most important jobs on set. Any entertainment industry professional can vouch for that. During production, it's me, the direc

Production Crew - that deserve their own Catagory - it is about time!
I am writing on behalf of the Department of the Film Industry that everyone forgets. They are the backbone of every production and, as most of these crew members are not seen, they are forgotten. Where does the call sheet come from that gets into your inbox for your next filming day? Where does t

Production Office Category??
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 "

Production department "miscellaneous crew"???
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

Production department (again)
Hello, I know this has been brought up again and again, but can there be a category for Production? We are the central nervous system for shows and that we just get swept into Miscellaneous is frankly insulting. Production Management would not be the same. I feel like this would be for UPM's and may

Could we please have a separate "Colorist Department"
The role of Colorist and related jobs such as color timer, conforming, finishing, versioning, HDR etc. really need to be in their own category. It can be very hard to find who did the grading and finishing on a project, colorists are scattered between editorial, visual effects and maybe some other d

Production department deserves own section, we are not Miscellaneous Crew!
I know this has been raised before, but with not much response nothing has changed. I have been told that as long as there is enough users to vote on the idea, IMDB will consider the change - so please help me spread the word.Seeing a recent addition of "Script & Continuity Department", I would like
