filmography

/fɪlˈmɒgrəfi/

Other forms: filmographies; filmographers

A filmography is a list of all the movies a person has worked on. If you're a big fan of an actor, you might check out their filmography to see what else they've been in!

If you're a beginning filmmaker, your filmography might include just one short film. An experienced director or actor who's been making movies for decades has a much longer (and more impressive) filmography. This term is also used for a collection of films that have something in common, like a filmography of 20th-century comedies. The word, modeled on bibliography, or "list of books," was first used in the 1960s.
