FES Producer Guide / 3. Post-Production & Deliverable Guidelines

06. CREDITS GUIDELINES

Fox Entertainment Studios has a credit specialist who will guide Producers through the credit creation process. All main and end credit sequences must adhere to the latest guild requirements. The Producer is responsible for creating a copy of credits for approval. A template for credits can be found here INSERT LINK HERE TO A12.5 for features & A12.6. for series.

Please follow all client guidelines received from the FES Creative Executive and Schedule B team regarding credits. To allow for an adequate review period, please have a draft of the opening titles submitted two weeks after wrap. Similarly, end credits must be submitted for review at least one month before the start of QC. Templates for both opening titles and end credits will be made available along with the other templates in SeeView.

Once production has fully approved credits, please send a clean PDF and original excel or word document to gillian.kane@fox.com who will obtain all necessary studio and client approvals. Please check in with Gillian for the appropriate timelines for studio submission and approvals.

Producers must also deliver a statement of the approved credit billings in summary form, listing all cast and production credits for the production to be given in paid advertising, any restrictions and obligations related to the use of the casts’ likeness, together with any applicable contractual language relating to such advertising. For details, please refer to the item description of the “Paid Ad/Credit Obligation/Photo Approval Chart” within the Schedule B Deliverables folder found here INSERT LINK HERE TO A12.1.2

Please make sure to consult with your FES Production Executive on regional tax requirements being reflected in the end credits. It’s the Producer’s contractual responsibility to ensure all tax credit requirements are adhered to in the end credits.
