Animation credits for specific scenes

I see posts on here and Instagram all the time posting sakuga up and crediting specific animators for those scenes. It’s some of my favourite things to see online.

I am wondering how these users and pages are finding out who specifically animated those scenes. Is it just being able to tell from knowing their styles and specific tells. Or is there somewhere that officially credits animators per scene.

I would love to know to be able to learn what animators are behind some of my favourite things coming out recently.

Any help would be appreciated. Sending links to sites you know of, or any ways to learn more about animators would be amazing.

[Sakugabooru](https://www.sakugabooru.com/post?tags=) is a great resource for exactly this purpose. Likewise, [Sakugablog](https://blog.sakugabooru.com/) is a fantastic resource if you're looking for some in-depth pieces on anime production.

In terms of how these things are found out, sometimes there's direct confirmation, either through the artists themselves on social media or through some other official/external resource (Like artbooks, interviews, etc). Without direct confirmation, as far as I understand, it's generally just derived/guessed through a variety of methods like corroborating style with credits, just style, handwriting, etc.
