It has come to
our attention that some
individuals have made false
claims regarding their
participation on the film Mystic
Voices: The Story of the Pequot
War.
Unfortunately, the participants
have falsely listed themselves as
having worked in a number of
capacities for which no veracity
can be claimed. While we have
acknowledged and appreciated the
actual contributions made by
these participants to the success
of the documentary, the
individuals have claimed to have
acted in a capacity that
accurately reflects neither their
actual participation nor the
credits accorded by the producers.
Specifically,
the claim made by Julianne
Jennings (a.k.a Strong Woman)
that she served as Associate Co-Producer
(RI Location) of Mystic
Voices: The Story of the Pequot
War is
inaccurate and misleading. Ms.
Jennings actually served as
Associate Producer ( Rhode Island
). In fact, for your edification
there has been previous legal
action which had been taken in
order to avoid further confusion.
*To
help explain things for those not
involved in the film and
television industry, here is a
definition of the term Associate
Producer:
Often
a "gifted" title,
granted by the producer(s) as a
courtesy to someone who might
have made a financial, creative
or physical contribution to the
production.
An
individual who performs a limited
number of functions on a
production delegated to her/him
by a producer, co-producer,
executive producer, etc. The
Associate often will act in a
limited capacity and function,
and does so under the direct
supervision and control of the
producer(s). Fairly uncommon in
feature films, an Associate
Producer is normally someone
acting as a liaison between the
producer(s) and a limited number
of personnel (for television the
Associate Producer often works in
the post production process).
Additionally,
no such title of "Associate
Co-Producer" exists (to our
knowledge) within the industry,
and it certainly wasn't part of
any personnel's titles involved
in the production of Mystic
Voices: The Story of the Pequot
War.
