Re: credit question
by Todd Terry on Aug 28, 2008 at 1:17:23 pm

If you want to follow the usual format usually seen in feature films, the composer of the whole score would normally be listed as "Score by...", although occasionaly might be listed as "Composer" or "Composition by..." or "Music composition by..."

This would typically be a very prominent credit, usually about midway in the opening titles, or very early in the closing titles.

If those additional songs that you are talking about are two already existing pieces of music (not custom created for your film), they would not be treated the same as the full score. Typically they would only be listed in the end credits, and usually near the every end of the credit roll. They would just be listed under "Songs" and would usually contain the name of the song, name of the song writer, name of the publshing company, year of the copyright, "Performed by...", and any specialty credit that is needed such as "Used with permission of Voodoo Records" or whatever.
