Sorry, may seem like a dumb question.

I'm auditing my copy of The Evil Dead. There's three sound credits listed in a row. Not under a sound header or anything, just three sound credits listed together. Mel Zelniker is listed as Sound Mixer. Searching through the CLT, the majority of Evil Dead titles list Mr. Zelniker as Sound Re-Recording Mixer.

The credits table says Sound Mixer = Production Sound Mixer when listed outside the sound credits. There is no other single credit for Sound Mixer in the crew table. There are some that are close! Sound Mixing is close, that's listed for sound re-recording mixer. So what do I list him as when he's got a credit of sound mixer within the sound credits?

Here's a screen cap for clarification.

What's the confusion, the Rules make it clear...Sound Re-Recording mixer.

From the Crew Table re: Sound Re-Recording Mixer
Re-recording Mixer,
Sound Mixing,
Principal Sound Mixer,
Sound Re-recording,
Sound Re-recording Engineer,
Sound Re-recordist

From the program itself
Sound Re-Recording Mixer
Re-Recording Mixer, Sound Mixer when listed within the Sound Section Credits, ya da, ya da, ya da.

What's so difficult here?   But then according to some i don't know the rules.

Case closed.

That's just something that Skip thinks that is funny. Similar as 3 year old thinks that it's funny to paint your white walls with finger paints.

Don't assume that everyone understands what 'hazing' is. I certainly don't. This is an international forum with international people asking simple questions respectfully expecting a simple answer. That seemed insulting from my point-of-view too. I certainly wouldn't have taken that nicely.

I agree the "What's the confusion" and "What's so difficult here?" do come off a little demeaning.

@ Skip:  To paraphrase you from another thread, Different strokes for different folks.  You aren't sitting in Merrik's chair, you can't speak for anyone but yourself.  Clearly he felt offended, and others saw it as such, you just don't see it...that's fine...but it doesn't make it not true, nor does your opinion invalidate his or theirs.

Agreed.

But here's the really funny part, Martian. The answer is obvious, clear and right under the nose, which was the point. That can't be argued, which many people so desperartely want to do when i give an answer. so what's the response attack the messenger. Typical, but pathetic.

@ Kulju:

Get over yourself. You have thrown far more than your share of insulting and distasteful remarks. You have no room to judge.

I love users like you and some others who are quick to judge when they have no room to judge. Physician heal they self and keep your mouth SHUT. You are one of the more insulting users that frequent these forums.
