End credits are one of those things impossible to get perfect the first time, but Endcrawl is making it easier with a new exceptionally thorough, free template.
End credits are an interesting thing to still have exist in the age of the internet. If you get something wrong in your IMDb listing, you can always go back and add and correct things.
But with your end credits, once your film is out in the world, it’s incredibly difficult to go in and add another name or fix a misspelling. It’s doable, but it’s not easy.
Of course, getting those credits together in the first place is a ton of work that can involve hundreds of emails to find out if “Steve” wants to be credited as “Stephen” and to confirm the name of every single person who day-played in the VFX roto department.
