I'm entering in the Canadian edition of the film Eyes of a Stranger (the U.S. version is in the system under UPC 012569-827912). Everything looks good, I've verified everything and double-checked everything that needs double-checking.

I've run across a credit in the film's credits that I'm unsure of how to handle.

There's a credit listed as:

Special Makeup - Dean Gates

The film already has listings for Makeup Artist (Carlos Gomeri) and Special Makeup Effects (Tom Savini) which I've entered accordingly under Make-Up Artist and Make-Up Effects.

Where the heck should Dean Gates go? Should he be listed under Make-Up Effects or Make-Up Artist, or left out? For Make-Up Effects the rules state Make-Up Effects, Special Make-Up Effects [by] and Make-Up Artist lists a whole crap load, but none just as Special Makeup. I doubt Special Makeup would be seen as the actual makeup artist (and one's already listed), but the credit doesn't have a listing for "effects" either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

that discussion is still ongoing, very slowly and not many are interested in these credits, related to the credits was this credit before Make-Up Artist or Special Makeup Effects, was it biger in display then those 2. If not I would leave him out, if you in to following these credits, you could park this credit in
the Special Make-Up Effects in the other section, so you would have it in your profile and can be taken care of in future. And you could join the "Contribution Rules Committee"

would not be valid, if you look at the list:

Quote:
Chief Makeup Artist,
Department Head, Make-Up Artist,
Head Make-Up Artist,
Key Make-Up,
Key Make-Up Artist,
Key Makeup Artist & Hairstylist,
Lead Makeup Artist,
Make-up,
Makeup and Hair Designer,
Makeup Artist,
Make-Up Designer,
Makeup Artist & Hair to [Cast Name],
Makeup for [Cast Name]

it is Make-Up and the combination of Hair Designer or Hairstylist, not the solo hair crew.
If you want to track this Hair Supervisor or other Hair crew put them in the other in the Make-up section (these stay local)

Thanks, I'll leave them out of the profile then (This was a credit in "That '70s Show: Season 2", which I'm currently profiling).
