   For this purpose, you can state all the productions you have been involved with and that are already listed with crew-united.com in your profile, and set a direct link to them. You are then displayed alongside all the other participants as being involved in the Project. If a project that you want to include in your profile is not yet listed, you have to create the listing.

4. Profile management

   Once you are registered you can add new information to your profile, update it or change it at any time. You can also determine which data you want to make publicly accessible.
