The 5 Block Types

Your Endcrawl project is made up of individual sections called blocks.

There are five basic block types. Using these, you can create any end credits sequence imaginable.

CAST+CREW is the most common block type.

It contains pairs of Roles ("Princess Leia", "Best Boy Electric") and Names ("Carrie Fisher", "Alan Smithee").

Use this block type for cast, crew, or vendors.

A CAST+CREW block can be either 1- or 2-column. See below for examples.

ℹ️ This block type was formerly called "Role+Name".

GROUP blocks are for multiple names who all share the same credit.

The most common use case is a Special Thanks section. But once you have at least 4 or 5 people with the same credit—think PAs, Drivers, or Roto Artists—consider separating them into their own GROUP block. It preserves space while offering a lot of layout flexibility.

ℹ️ This block type was formerly called "Name Only".

A PARAGRAPH block is a simple paragraph or line of text.

Use this block type for legal, copyright, or dedications.

ℹ️ This block type was formerly called "Blurb".

MEDIA blocks are most commonly used to credit music and needle drops.

You can also use this block type to credit other types of licensed material like stock footage or any other works of art.

ℹ️ This block type was formerly called "Song".

Logo blocks place one or more logo images into a neatly aligned grid.

Use this block type to credit your vendors and guilds, and to fulfill certain contractual requirements. Endcrawl has the world's largest collection of production logos: 4,000 and counting. You can also upload your own images and logos.
