Credit (creative arts) means that if you create something, you get recognition for it. For example, if you write a song or create a painting or design some clothes, and you share it with other people, you can get credit for it. This might mean that people will give you money for your work or it could mean that you get recognition from other people, like your friends or strangers. Sometimes, the credit you get can be more important than the money, because it helps to show how creative and capable you are.
