So say you make a video about a technical subject, a game or even a drama and you and your crew don't want to use real names in the credits. Common practice.
And I see some credits that look like made up names. Oh god you can't have the assistant sound technician giving his real name. Then people will track him down in real life streets for getting the sound of special effects wrong. Actually that is a good reason to track down an assistant sound technician. Not really, So these will be joke names in the credits.
Try using names with the first letter omitted from the name. Have the name be of everyday things with the first letter left off but people may still be able to tell what word it was meant to be. Here's an example below, in this case the first names are normal and the last names have the first letter dropped.
Producer - Dale Urniture
Assistant Producer - Sheila Mbrella
Lead Programmer - Mark Ustenance
AI Programmer - Fred Orcupine
Lead Sound Technician - Melanie Ockroach
Assistant Sound Technician - Alan Tarship
