Booker T. Washington : educator / executive producer, Andrew Schlessinger ; produced and directed by Rhonda Fabian, Jerry Baber. (OCLC #25563579)

In the RDA Toolkit’s “MARC Bibliographic to RDA Mapping”, MARC field 508 (Creation/Production Credits Note) corresponds to RDA 2.17.3, Note on Statement of Responsibility (RDA 7.24 on Artistic and/or Technical Credit now directs you to 2.4 and 2.17.3).

In practice, for videos, this field often contains non-cast contributors not listed in the statement of responsibility:

508	__ ǂa Director of photography, Keith Smith ; editing/script,
    Amy A. Tiehl [and others] ; theme music, Michael Keck ;
    introductions by John O'Neal.

Lollapalooza / Sister Ray Enterprises. (OCLC #909786219)

On first glance, I thought this video might be black and white, which would have been coded:

007 __ ǂa v ǂb d ǂd b ǂe v ǂf a ǂg i ǂh z
300 __ ǂa 1 videodisc (63 min.) : ǂb sound, black and white

I watched some of the video and, like the cover, it is in (filtered/washed out) color, so I coded it:

007 __ ǂa v ǂb d ǂd c ǂe v ǂf a ǂg i ǂh z
300 __ ǂa 1 videodisc (63 min.) : ǂb sound, color

using vocabulary described in RDA 7.17.1.3. I didn’t think Details of Colour Content (RDA 7.17.1.4) were important for identification or selection, so didn’t include any more detail.
