Item Use Type Definition Guide

An item that was filmed during the production and used in the final cut of the show or movie.

Screen Used/Worn Stunt:

An item used by a principal actor (not stunt double) that was used for a stunt sequence requiring a special skill set. The item is typically not made for close ups and is often made of lighter and safer material to minimize fatigue and risk of injury for the actor during a stunt sequence. Also, a wardrobe item for the principal actor may be marked “stunt” with a modified size for placement of padding and/or to allow the actor to move freely to perform the stunt.

Screen Used/Worn Stunt Double:

An item used by a stunt actor portraying the character for a stunt sequence. A stunt is a difficult or dangerous sequence requiring a special skill set that wasn’t performed by the principal actor. The item is typically not made for close ups and is made of more durable materials to withstand wear during stunt sequences.
