This answer is oh so simple. Do you see Sound Design Editor listed in either the Rules Crew table or the Program....NO? Then they don't get listed.

Kinda what I figured, but will continue to ask about these "hybrid" credits that pop up from time to time.
Who knows, maybe because I asked this question, these roles will be on the next chart, a butterfly will flap it's wings on the moon and a baby will stop crying in public.

You could try, tracer, but i think Director (directed By IS covered in the rules, the crew Chart and the Program

"If someone is not credited with one of these roles (or direct translations of these roles), do not include them in the Crew section.

SDE is not a direct translation, it instead contains information for TWO different roles in our crew system, so for now the answer has to be no, but we can hope for the future. I still think the best way is to stop this game of shoehorning and creating unclear data, just list what you see that way the day is clear and communicates exactly what is On screen instead of some sort mish mash

I would not removed a director with directed by, I was mentioning the "A Film By" credit.

So your saying the Director should be included if they are only credited with "A Film By" credit even though it doesn't exist in the "Credited As" field?  Because Hollywood loves to play with credits... just to mess with the Invelos Contribution Forum

Oh absolutely not. A Film By Credit is nothing to profiler, if there is no accompanying Director (Directed By credit, then its meaningless.

I have seen "a film by" in non-US films as the only director credit.

Then that would be NO Director credit for profiler  (Online). What you want to do locally about it would be your business

That kind of thinking elminates all non-US roles though. If it's customary for that language or country to use "a film by" for director, I add it.

"A Film by" means undoubtedly "Directed by", no matter whether it is covered by the rules or not. It was (and is) establishes in so many films, especially in French and German movies ("un film de..." / "ein Film von..."). It is a standard description.

Sometimes I ask myself how blinkered some people can be. Switch on the brains, boys!

I'm also one of those that say: If it's not in the crew chart, leave it out.
But if there a crew descriptions that are meaning the same as existing crew we track, it would be good to add them to the crew chart.
