Quick question (i hope )
If someone is credited "Incidental Music By" would they get a credit and if so what. Not sure - I've seen this credit used sometimes where most of the soundtrack is songs or non-original music, and a composer writes "incidental music" to fill the gaps. So depending on the situation, a composer credit may be valid. |

| | Posted: | | | | Thats what i thought north, there are two music credits that appear on screen one is for the theme tune which is credited as "Music and Lyrics By" which i put as Song Writer the other is the "Incidental Music By" credit which i assume means that any other music you hear during the programme was written by that person (can't think of any other reason for the credit to be there) so thought a Composer credit might be appropriate. |

At best, you are guessing at what this person's actual role was.
Composer is reserved for the person who wrote the score. | | | | Hal |

Composer is reserved for the person who wrote the score. I agree with Hal. This person did not write the score so should not get a composer credit. He/she did write songs...which is why I said, "maybe songwriter". | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| | Posted: | | | | Except you'll find that whoever wrote the music for a particular tv episode or film is sometimes given an "incidental music by" credit. Which is why I said it depends on the situation.
I mean, after all, what is a score but incidental music? | | | | Last edited: by northbloke |
