Post-Production: Credits

To acknowledge everyone who took part in making a game/film/tv series, a credits screen is displayed right at the end to show audiences who took part in the making of the game/film/tv series. The credits shows the director, the executive producer, the actors/actresses, the teams who were involved in different areas (Animation, Rendering, Art, Storyboarding etc.) and the music/sound effects used, crediting them to the music and foley artists for their work. Below is what a credits screen normally looks like.


This is a screenshot from Saint's Row 2, showing the Art teams who were involved in concept, background and character designs. It also shows the Animation coordinator too. In some credits, the animators would usually do fly bys of an environment, a place that was involved during the animation and have the words scroll up. This would have been done in Adobe Premiere by using a text box and pulling it from bottom to top.
