What's the point? They go so fast, they actually run, so no one can see them. The only way for a viewer to see gaffer, script boy, editor etc would be to freeze the frame.
Originally posted by @moonbusMy band Southwind got a TV gig, and my wife, manager of the band, got Ed Asner to allow our band's name to go in the credits. Not bad for a folk music band. Few years ago now🙂
Somebody notices, I'm sure. Having worked on a film or tv show is part of one's cv, even if one wasn't visible on screen. I expect that is how a scriptwriter or a gaffer or a set decorator gets more and better work, by citing things he's done before, and the credits are the proof.
