Would you, by that same reasoning, also leave out "production designed by"? That's not listed in the chart either, yet it's obviously what we're after. The same applies to sound editorial <--> sound editor(s). By the same token: would you leave out "written for the screen by"? And have you ever encountered a credit saying "Original Material by"? |

In the Film Business "Editorial" is the term given to the process of editing. Most editing (Film, Sound or Both) facilities are listed under "Editorial Services" in the yellow pages out here in L.A. Yes, in that context "Editorial" is an adjective, and makes sense  But the credit should then be "Sound Editorial Services [by]", or similar, so you aren't left with a 'hanging' adjective. Otherwise, it is read as a noun, and that makes it a little odd  | | | | You can download higher resolution versions of any of my cover scans from here | | | | Last edited: by Lewpy |

| | Posted: | | | | Ok, perhaps my explanation was not the best and if I write "I would not include them" should not mean I wouldn't accept them.
So looked a bit in the web and it seems that Sound Editorial is making Sound Editing, so I could of course agree to include them.
Problem was that in direct translation it's an adjective and means "redaktionell". And the staff that is doing the "redaktionelle" work at a newspaper for example so not have to be the same people that are writing the articles.
Btw, my translator didn't give me a translation for Editorial as noun.
To your examples:
- production design by -> person is a "Production Designer"
- written for screen by -> person is a "Screenwritter"
-> sound edit by -> person is a "Sound Editor" -> that a sound Editorial is the same I've just to learn.
Can you see a difference?
OMB is imho different, as there is no "credited as" in the credit chart, so we've to make our decisions with the notes/explanation from the credit chart. |

| | Posted: | | | | So, BigDaddy, did the credits include any credit for "Sound Editor"?
If so, I'd definitely leave them out as that is a clear indication that a "Sound Editorial" is not the same as a "Sound Editor".
If there is no "Sound Editor" credit, it would be an assumption that this is the same job without doing further research. It may very well be, but I don't like assumptions.
Personally, using the word "Editorial" seems to be a very strange credit for any "sound" credit since the common use of this term is a written or spoken "opinion" piece. | | | | Hal |

More context is required to determine if it should be added or not. Thank you, teacher. That is why some of us have said NO unless there are no other Sound editor entries for this title. If it is the only Sound Editor entry then I would accept it. I don't believe I have seen any comment from the OP as to whether this is the only entry or not. Skip | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!
