I'm auditing a film & am not 100% sure who to include in the cast list.



Do I stop at "Boy  DANIEL DOTTERER" or do I include everyone down to "STEVE SUSSKIND"?

Thanks!

As far as I can see the cast credits stop at 'Boy  DANIEL DOTTERER' and then starts again at 'Helicopter Pilot  KEVIN LA ROSA' en the Voice Actors.

IMO the Helicopter Pilot credit could as well be a crew member as a cast member and should be left out.

I would include the voice actors though.

Thanks for the responses so far. My main problem with that is the part of the Cast Rules that says -

Quote:
For the purposes of this section we define "standard" film credits as those where all credited actors involved are listed together in a single section at the end of the film - defined here as the "end credits".


By not including the Stunts, we're separating the "Cast" into two sections.

I'll check out the other releases for the film to see how they've done it - Edit: So far, all releases that have cast info stop at the end of the main list.

The Helicopter Pilot depends on whether he's actually in the movie or just a crew member that for example holds the camera. But wouldn't he be credited in the crew section then?

@Forget_the_Rest
The Rules also acknowledge non-standard credits. But it's a grey area

It does indeed seem similar & the consensus there was to include them. Thanks!

The credits are already separated into two section.  The space between "Boy  DANIEL DOTTERER" and "Stunt Coordinator  GARY PAUL" denotes an end to the cast list and the beginning of the crew.

Thes, as with the example in the other post that is linked, are not standard credits because all the actors involved are not listed together.  That being the case, you can skip the crew and move on the the additional actors.

The helicopter pilot is probably just as involved as the stunt people. He's probably some kind of stunt pilot, when the camera isn't directed at the pilot, and when it's actually in the air, and not in a studio.

Thanks all. I've submitted it as suggested missing out the Stunt people & Helicopter Pilot.
