Verification Standards

All credits must appear on-screen, as part of the project's opening or end credit sequence. Upon credit submission, please provide verification. We accept credits from the following sources: press kits, publicity materials and official websites. We also accept other forms of verification including pay stubs or similar documents indicating person or company involvement with a production listed in our database. Due to this policy, IMDb or other user-generated online databases are not accepted forms of verification.

Please note: while we will make every effort, we can not guarantee that all updates will be added to our database.
