| Posted: March 9, 2013 9:59 PM | | | | IMDB"Jane Jenkins" is credited in the following 21 titles (132 profiles) "J. J. Chaback" is credited in the following 8 titles (156 profiles) "J.J. Chaback" is credited in the following 7 titles (41 profiles) "J J Chaback" is credited in the following 2 titles (15 profiles) This thread is to determine the common name for casting director and actress Jane Jenkins aka J. J. Chaback. According to the CLT results, her common name is Jane Jenkins, but if IMDB is to be believed, most of the titles that show up under the results for "Jane Jenkins" should actually be a variation of J. J. Chaback. Moreover, there is a substantial deal of overlap between the CLT results . Additionally, there's something funky going on as some of the results for Jane Jenkins show her credited as Production Sound Mixer on titles such as Air Force One, Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare, and Transformers - all of which she only served as a casting director, a credit we do not track. J. J. Chaback / J.J. Chaback / J J Chaback are all filtered the same so I'll count them together but keep them separated for "credited as" name purposes. J. J. Chaback / J.J. Chaback / J J Chaback - 9 confirmed as J. J. ChabackApollo 13 (confirmed by me) The Beautician and the Beast (confirmed by T!M) Frances (confirmed by bigdaddyhorse) Outbreak (confirmed by jmbox) as J.J. ChabackBackdraft (interpreted by me, screen capture by bbbbb) Ghosts of Mississippi (interpreted by me, screen capture by baham) Ransom (confirmed by ateo357) Rebound (interpreted by me, screen capture by baham) as JJ ChabackA Beautiful Mind (confirmed by ateo357) Jane Jenkins - 0 confirmed Unconfirmed Credits in the Database:Denial Welcome to Hollywood | | | My DVD/Blu-ray Collection My Letterboxd Page | | | Last edited: March 11, 2013 8:35 PM by Rizor |

According to Ken Cole's post here: Quote: J.D./Dawodu becomes J./D./Dawodu [J.D. Dawodu] J D/Dawodu becomes J./D./Dawodu [J D Dawodu] J. D./Dawodu becomes J./D./Dawodu Unless I'm reading it incorrectly, both J. J. Chaback and J J Chaback would be filtered to J./J./Chaback. There would be a different credited as name, but the same common name for both. | | | My DVD/Blu-ray Collection My Letterboxd Page | | | Last edited: March 9, 2013 11:13 PM by Rizor |

| Posted: March 10, 2013 12:03 AM | | | | If you upload a profile with J J Chaback or JJ Chaback, Profiler doesn't automatically filter it. If you upload a profile with J.J. Chaback it automatically filters it to J. J. Chaback.
So JJ/J J and J.J./J. J. are handled differently. | | | Last edited: March 10, 2013 12:04 AM by GreyHulk |

So JJ/J J and J.J./J. J. are handled differently. I wasn't too sure so I gave it a try. J J Chaback does get automatically filtered to J. J. Chaback (J J Chaback). JJ Chaback is the only one that isn't filtered. Quoting ateo357: Quote: A beautiful Mind is JJ Chaback on screen no space between the JJ. 1/24 in CLT. Thanks. I had checked this earlier, but wasn't sure. The Js look slightly further apart than the other letters, but it's not a full space. Or the slimness of the Js are playing tricks with my eyes.  Here's the credit for reference.  | | | My DVD/Blu-ray Collection My Letterboxd Page | | | Last edited: March 10, 2013 1:18 AM by Rizor |

 I think it is an optical with the same letter and being J's. |

| Posted: March 10, 2013 8:59 AM | | | | Quoting Rizor: Quote: Additionally, there's something funky going on as some of the results for Jane Jenkins show her credited as Production Sound Mixer That's easy: there was once an "IMDb2DVDP"-tool that mined IMDb's data into the DVD Profiler format which had one major bug: it consistently entered casting credits as "Production Sound Mixer". So every time you see a casting director listed as Production Sound Mixer, you know for sure that the rest of the profile is IMDb-mined data as well. 'The Beautician and the Beast': J. J. Chaback. The thing with Ms. Jenkins is that she's consistently credited as Jane Jenkins when she's working on the casting department, but as JJ/J.J./J. J. Chaback when she makes the occasional acting cameo. Since we don't track casting in the online database, it seems the common name will go to the "Chaback" name variant. But I happen to track casting in my local database, using custum crew entries, so for me personally, she'll always be credited loads more times as "Jane Jenkins"... | | | Last edited: March 10, 2013 11:34 AM by T!M |

I have Jane Jenkins credited as J.J. variants for Ransom and Outbreak, has that name ever even been used at all? I see no place for it, much less any confirmed. I'm freaking changing it right now! |

It looks like the Jane Jenkins common name might be due to a lot of profiles getting their information from IMDB. | | | My DVD/Blu-ray Collection My Letterboxd Page |
