The end credit ideas that we have in mind are very similar to the credits from 'The Inside Man' (Below)

(End credits begin from 2:03:00)
There are many different ways of ordering certain departments on end credits on a full length feature film. However, many films follow a certain template.
I studied the end credits of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire to see what order certain attributes came in.
I noticed that the credits were split up into two sections: One was a very visual animation of the more important information which would be seen by the audience as they are leaving the cinema. The other section is afterwards where it is a long crawling list of different names, companies, departments and special elements. The majority of the audience has left the cinema room by the time the second section of credits comes on.
Below is the order of positions. Only 1/4 of the end credits have been added.

I also studied the final credits of "Cheaper by the Dozen 2" to see the order of attributes:
I saw that the outtakes were displayed before the credits came up and then the standard scrolling credits began:

I also looked at an amateur clip of credits of a television series instead of just a full length feature film and the credits were similar in the way they ordered on screen.
