As a result, the broadcaster is abandoning the process. The BBC has also promised to curb its credit-squeezing habits — but it will not be stopping it altogether. Instead it has vowed, among other things, to make sure the credits run in full for at least one episode of a drama or comedy. But the practice seems likely to continue on Channel 4 and ITV — two commercially minded broadcasters who will never not feel the need to keep viewers watching.
Although Channel 4 argues that it does not squeeze end credits but ensures they remain the same size by dividing the screen into two panels. For viewers, of course, that still means credits have to compete with marketing for other shows. Broadcasters point to the fact that viewers have got used to the idea of credits being squeezed; that it's a fact of life.
What's more, anyone who wants to read credits in full can do so online. But this seems to me to miss such an obvious point about the viewing experience and the importance of pausing after the credits.

What does Roll credits mean? The first ad is generally not everybody's friend. The job requires an authoritative personality, and could deal with the major stresses of a big production.
Beneath the first ad is the second ad. The second ad is usually in charge of handling the background actors and often directs background action. A second second ad may be needed for films with a lot of background people.
That is the call on a series of specific cues before it take to bring the cast and crew together including calling for Quiet on the set and roll sound and Roll camera. Big productions may have multiple units. The director may designate certain scenes often special effects, aerial shots or even small scenes to a second unit.
Depending on what the needs are. A second unit can have the same director team structure with a second unit director and second unit ad. The head of the camera department is the director of photography or dp. The dp is in charge of crafting the look of the film in collaboration with the director using lenses, lighting and camera movement.
A dp may or may not actually operate the camera so you may see a camera operator title as the person who actually works the camera. The first assistant camera or first AC pulls the focus and assists the operator and the DP. The second AC assists the first AC but also does the film clapper calls out the scene numbers and fills out the camera reports now productions will shoot with from more than one camera. In this case you will have operators first and second ACS for a camera B camera and even see camera.
If a celluloid film cameras being used, you will see the name of the film loader who has to make sure the exposed film is safely taken out and raw negative is loaded correctly into the camera. Digital productions are starting to use a digital version of that a digital imaging technician that makes sure all the footage is downloaded from the camera's memory and safely backed up usually in triplicate.
Now you will see some special camera credits including steady cam operator who, as you imagine, operates the steady cam or a similar device. Motion Control Tech's are for motion control Dolly systems. And the same vein you have on set videographers who are documenting the behind the scenes for the sound department.
The production sound mixers serves as the department head as responsible for recording all the location sound in the production. Under the sound mixer are the boom operators who are in charge of operating the microphone boom, and utility sound technicians who run cables and make sure everything is operating properly. The head of the lighting department is the gaffer now this position works closely with the director of photography to plan out the lighting of a film and in some productions is called the lighting designer.
Even when a woman fills a spot she can be called a best boy. The best boy handles the day to day management including the hiring, scheduling and management of lighting crew and the renting ordering inventory and returning of lighting equipment. The under the best boy electric are the lighting technicians who set up and operate the lights.
The grip department which is the Department for non electrical components of lighting setups such as stands, flags, rigging and bounces as well as camera moving equipment is structured similarly to the lighting department. The head is the key grip and below that is the best boy grip who manages the day to day operation and oversees the rest of the grips. If the grips are operating the camera Dolly than they will be credited as Dolly grips.
The origin of the term best boy may come from the studio days where the line between lighting and grip was not so rigid. When one department needed a temporary worker, the department head of one would just go to the other and asked for their best boy essentially the second in command. A best boy may also have its roots in early sailing and whaling crews as sailors would often work on the rigging in theatres when they weren't at sea. With actors cameras sound and lights and place now we just have to figure out what to put in front of the camera and that is the job of the art department.
The Art Department is headed by the production designer who worked with the director and the director of photography to figure out the look of the production from the sets, the costumes and the props. Under the general art department is a sub Department called the art department headed by the art director. The art director oversees artists and crafts people such as the set designers, graphic artists and illustrators who work on the look of a film and its marketing.
Once the art department designs the set, it is the role of the construction department headed by the construction coordinator who manages all the construction needed to build those sets. Reporting to the construction coordinator is the head carpenter who leads a gang of carpenters and laborers. This may also include crafting custom props, construction is also responsible for breaking down a set after the production is over. Once the set is created, it needs to be filled in.
This is the job of the sets department headed by the set decorator working under the set decorator are the buyers who purchase or rent pieces for the set leads Minh or leads person who oversees the set dressing crew, often referred to as the swing gang. This swing gang is made up of set dressers who fill in all the stuff you would normally see on a set of a set needs plants, you will see a greens man who handles all the plant material, sometimes real and sometimes artificial.
If a film has a significant amount of greens, this may be its own sub department with its own organizational heirarchy. The items that the actors interact with that are not part of the scenery are called properties or props and are under the jurisdiction of the property master who may have assistance below him or her as some projects will have a weapons matter which will work specifically with guns, swords and other weapons, both in procuring for the set and in training in their proper safe use.
The head of the costume department is the costume designer. Under that position is the costume supervisor who works on the day to day management of the costumes as well as overseeing the customers, buyers and renters who work in that department.
The head of the hair and makeup departments are the key makeup artists and key hair. Both positions will work on hair and makeup for the leads and oversee assistant makeup artists who work on the other actors.
Now special effects are the effects that happen in the camera, the practical effects team, a special effects team can have a similar eriko structure to the art department. And that's headed by a special effects supervisor, with a gang boss or construction foreman under him or her overseeing all kinds of technicians from pyrotechnicians to sculptors to model and miniature technicians backing up the art department and actually all other departments as well is the continuity supervisor sometimes called script supervisor.
The role of the continuity supervisor is to make sure that things that need to look the same look the same from day to day that the sets the costume hair and makeup stay consistent over a long shoot. How before we wrap up the production crew let's not forget the craft services and catering positions.
