If puppeteers are included in the end credits include them and append (puppeteer) at the end of the role.

Just seeking some clarification on this rule.
Can puppeteer's be taken from anywhere in the end credits or only if they are part of the cast list in the end credits (Same as Stunts). Reading the rule myself it just says "End Credits" and does not specify any particular part of the credits.

Another question: IF they are allowed from any part of the credits and they are not part of the cast list should a header be used to separate them from the cast list?

In my opinion... they would have to be part of the cast credits since it is the cast section that it goes in and the cast section that the rule is in.

As for a divider... I would say no since there is no mention of using a divider in the rules for it... but tells you to append (puppeteer) to the end.

If you're going this way, and i'm not in puppets, you're are to remove a lot of puppeteers as they are not regulary credited with the cast same as voice effects and adr voices ...

We don't determine what a puppeteer is or is not, it's either a credited role within the Cast or it is not and if they are NOT within the cast list then they are not credited for us. As for ADR voices we have NO CREDIT at all for any ADR involvement.

Pete and Skip are correct, they are not allowed from anywhere in the credits.  This type of confusion happens when people take specific rules out of context.  The first part of this rule section reads:

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".


That sentence defines the term 'end credits'.  Anytime that term is used, in this section of the rules, it refers to the standard cast list.

Yet another case of not really paying attention to the Rules, but trying to bend them to fit the desired result. Unicus is 180% correct. Oooooh there's a puppeteer he is absolutely dead last, away from the credits, but since we are allowed to handle puppeteers then he must be OK....NOT!!!!!!

I have waited patiently for ninehours to WITHDRAW his Contribution but since he has not it is Predator 2;
024543-064022 . And should it get approved I will make the correction IMMEDIATELY.

No, you weren't as Unicus pointed out. If you had REALLY read the Rules, then there is no need for this poll or the question, you would have known the answer. You found the puppeteers and followed that NARROW point while ignoring the most relevant parts of the Rule to insert data which does not belong.

Good point well made, don't read the rules on its own but read them as a whole, thanks for that Unicus that makes sense.

I think a lot of users do that, they don't take the entire context of the Rules into account, instead they deal with phrases and bits and pieces which results in...well, you know. I definitely don't think you are alone. Cheers, knock back a pint for me.
