| Article | |
| Portion used |
Entire image in original aspect ratio to preserve the film's cinematography and avoid misrepresenting the work in any way. |
| Low resolution? |
Low: the video has been compressed and downscaled from the original DVD quality. With a frame rate of 24p, the 80 seconds contained in this video contains slightly over 2,300 frames and account for less than 1% of the total motion picture. Copies made from this video will be inferior to the original DVD, preserving commercial opportunities, and unsuitable for illegal uses being such a small portion of the film. |
| Purpose of use |
The clip is used to illustrate the special effects of Requiem for a Dream which would be impossible to communicate effectively using only text or text and still images. As described in the article, visuals were created using a unique process of macro photography of fluid dynamics and microorganisms rather than CGI. A second clip from the DVD documentary Inside The Fountain: Death and Rebirth explains this further and is uploaded as File:The Fountain documentary.ogv |
| Replaceable? |
