More options for crew members (Music, Producer, Editor, etc)

Rufus

At the moment you can only list Director and Screenwriter as crew members. I'm a big OST fan and think it would be nice to see who created the music for different productions on their respective pages without having to leave the site. 

There are other things that could be added to crew too, such as Producer, Editor, Cinematographer, Production Design, Art Direction. All of this information is usually available via IMDB or Wikipedia.

Since the crew member jobs is an easy thing to add, we will look into it.

Thank you.

If you know the exact crew job name please let me know, since I don't want to add every single one.

We need "Executive producer" and "Composer". You can see different crew roles here: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6751668/fullcredits?ref_=tt_cl_sm#cast 

Also, we need to be able to select each role individually. Directors can be screenwriters and producers and we can't add them as such.

Types of directors that could be added (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_crew):

Art director: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_director 

Music director: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_director 

Casting director: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casting_(performing_arts)#Casting_directors 

Creative director: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_director 

Stunt director: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movement_director 

Also, please, please, please, if you can add "Bit part" for actors: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_part 

We have lots of Bit actors in films but we have to label them as guest which is wrong because guests are famous actors that are paid more than bit actors and have a slightly bigger roles.

Adding Assistant Director and some kind of Other/Misc Director would be nice. 

There are many types of 'secondary' directors like Unit Directors, Martial Arts Directors, Stunt Directors, Choreography Directors etc. so grouping them in one role seems like the best solution.

That would change everything and it's not possible at the moment.

It's okay, just  please, please, please, add "Bit part/Bit Role" for actors: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_part

I would love to see music composers info added to MDL, I love listening to some background music and music composers deserve more recognition than just being named as "various artists" on Youtube.

I think Ji-N already added it as Composer.

I would also like to see Assistant Director in Crew members. I think they play an important part too and they need to be recognized.

Wow, I just discovered the many new roles that have been added. This is great! Maybe you can add a role specific option in the search, too? It would be really helpful with the new possiblities, to also be able to search for them. Thanks!

I had forgotten that I had posted about this, thanks for adding it! It's nice to see that people are already using it. One thing I'm not sure of is with OST contributions, maybe someone can help clarify this.

What do we use for music artists who contribute tracks to OSTs but are not the OST composers or music department? For example, Min Kyung Hoon has songs for dramas Rugal, Welcome 2 Life, Money Flower, Live Up to Your Name, The K2, SPY, etc. Pretty much every drama and movie have this in some capacity with title songs, etc.

Unfortunately, we don't have that role, yet. However, it would be nice to add 'OST Singer' as one of the roles too.

And would like to recommend to add 'Martial Arts Director' as well, as they play an important part in like 70% of Asian cinema. (: As I consider the role we currently have 'Stunt' as the actual stunt double actor. So it would be best to separate those two.
