Is there a way to filter data by departments? For instance when searching for a title the results would return just the camera department for the selected film.

Hi @joosbox,

There's no way to get the crew data from a search. When you make the call for the movie details, your only option would be to filter the data client side.

And filter through the crew array for all people with the "department" is equal to "Camera".

what is the difference between department and known for department in crew list ? @travisbell

I don't know if it is the right place to ask this but is there a way to show trailer on our own site ?

The department is the department of the particular credit record. The known_for_department is a person field, and gives you an idea of who that person is.

Sure, you can use our /videos end point. We store Vimeo and YouTube IDs, so you will have to integrate their players. We don't host any content.

Sorry to ask again, but what's the difference between title and original title . I have found same value for both of them .
