| | Posted: | | | | I'd say "No",
but if "Yes" the only possibility would be "OMB" | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

| | Posted: | | | | For those that insist on giving "Created By" a DVDP credit, it's hard to argue that "Developed By" should not also get the same credit. Talk about your slippery slope!  My position is no credit. | | | | Hal | | | | Last edited: by hal9g |

Any credits for these people & in so which ones? These are writing credits (as is "Created by"). See Determining Separated Rights on a Television Series from the WGA. It's under item 3. Here's the last paragraph: Quote:
The rules for determination of the "Developed by" credit are set forth in the Separation of Rights Manual. Three independent arbiters are asked to review and compare the relevant literary material to determine whether the writer proposed for "Developed by" credit has "contributed significantly to the series' distinctiveness and viability, [though] not enough to warrant a 'Created by' credit." The "Developed by" credit should only be granted "when the use of a 'Created by' credit alone would substantially misrepresent the writer(s) responsible for the series' distinctiveness or viability." There are no role restrictions on OMB specifically because we knew we couldn't come up with all of the possibilities. As such, IMO, you may include them as OMB. | | | ...James

| | Posted: | | | | All four of them do get an original material credit IMO. |

| | Posted: | | | | OMB is to be used for adaptations from another medium so doesn't really fit these credits. I wouldn't want to dilute the data to the point of becoming useless so I would leave them out. | | | | First registered: February 15, 2002 |
