Distribution : Creating an image by Eddie Orozco

You can absolutely credit yourself and your production company if you're giving legitimate credit where credit is due. Is there a reason why you think you shouldn't?

I've been told that I should build myself first, then once I have more creditability then start disturbing with a production company name.

Maybe I'm missing some context, but I am honestly baffled by the advice you've been given. What am I missing? Rhetorical. It's certainly possible there is some missing context here that would clearly explain the reason behind that advice.

I just ask my instructor direct as that. Me: To get recognition should I just have my name on my movie or can I have a production company name also.

OK, let's use a basketball analogy. If you market yourself as a potential NBA Center and a Point Guard, people are going to think, "This guy is clueless. You can't be both a Center and a Point Guard." If your market yourself as a potential NBA Shooting Guard who can also run the Point, then that's focused and believable, right? If you market yourself as a director who has a production company, that is a completely focused statement. You're a director who understands physical production and can manage the production of content. How is that a poor way to market yourself? If you wanted to market yourself as a director and a post production supervisor, yeah, I'd say pick a road. But a director who has experience producing content, that is a plus! There are of course situations in which you want to focus on one and not the other, but generally speaking, there is nothing wrong for an independent filmmaker to have a production company that is capable of producing content. Those things go hand-in-hand.

Great finish Thank you so much

@Eddie, my pleasure. Break a leg!
