I have a question:

I didnt write the TV spot, but i was put on as support for the production of the TV spot. I did the music exploration which the song got selected and put into the spot. I helped put together the production deck, did all the nuts and bolts transcribing updated scripts into the VO read decks, etc. Pretty much did a lot of the dirty work for the CD's, but I wasn't at the actual shoot, nor did they have me call any shots for the final spot.

Can I put my spot in the book?

Seeing someone put a spot in their book because ‘they chose the music and made a production deck’ would actually work against this person imho. Don’t do it, OP. It’s not your idea nor did you truly impact the execution.

My rule of thumb: if the other creative team members wouldn’t give me credit in their book, then I don’t put the project in mine.

Did anyone else on the team think your contributions were significant enough to list your name?

No. The spot is not yours.

“My spot” lol. If you have to ask, you already know. Especially as a writer…if you didn’t write the thing or have any involvement in original concept, why would it go in your book?

I wouldn’t, but I know a lot of people that would. 🤷‍♀️

As a hiring manager and with 20 years of experience in the creative marketing field, I say yes, but you need to be crystal clear about your role. You could list it like...

Role: Behind the scenes support including building production decks, transcribing scripts for voiceover talent, and sourcing soundtrack/incidental music/incidental audio.
