Credit or freak out with one of those making a scene? (8)
I believe the answer is:
director
'freak out with one of those making a scene?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'credit or' is the wordplay.
'credit' becomes 'direct' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'direct'+'or'='DIRECTOR'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for director that I've seen before include "He guides and shapes a play or film" , "Boss posing as creditor" , "Creditor (anag.)" , "leader" , "Manager, governor" .)
