| | Posted: | | | | Walt Disney being credited as a producer.
So if it says "A Walt Disney Production" he gets a credit as a producer or is this more of a Company name.
If so does he still get credit for the films that show "A Walt Disney Production" even after his death. |

| | Posted: | | | | I fully admit to not understanding crew credits rules... but how it sounds to me... a company credit so no credit. Though I would wait to see what others thinks. | | | | Pete |

| | Posted: | | | | I would have to agree, a production company credit is not a crew credit. Just as in this example the company name may not reflect a producer that worked on the film |

| | Posted: | | | | Here is the 'Credited As' from the crew chart: "A [name] Production (excluding company names)"
Walt Disney is an odd duck as it is both the name of the producer as well as the company. For films/shows that were produced while he was alive, I think he can be entered as producer...even though he may not have been the producer. For films/shows that were produced after his death, I don't think he can be entered as it is obvious he didn't produce them. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| | Posted: | | | | In this case, I think you're talking about Mary Poppins. The movie was produced in 1964 and Walt didn't die until 1966, so I think we should use him as the producer, and because there is no other producer listed. | | | | Marty - Registered July 10, 2004, User since 2002. | | | | Last edited: by mreeder50 |
