The differences between independent and mainstream films is that, in mainstream films everyone is included for the credits in the film and the film will have it's own font as well as various scenes which show it's an American production. In independent films not everyone is listed in the credits as they don't have a large budget and don't have very many different scenes also they would require several small distribution companies to get the word out about their film because they have a low budget whereas for an American film they would only use around two big distribution company since they possess a large budget.

The credits of films may in teen-drama may differ quite a bit but not major differences when concerning American production films which has a large budget and a huge crew but one thing that will never change is that there will always be the film company at the beginning and who the film is directed by at the beginning anything in between there are small differences. However in the case of films that are not produced by an American film company won’t have as much budget therefore the difference between the credits in American films is they would have everyone and have at least one or two distribution company whereas British made films would not include everyone as they don’t have enough budget and would require a series of distribution companies to help spread word of their film.
