Fair use rationale for Image:F. W. Murnau - Faust.jpg[edit]

Image:F. W. Murnau - Faust.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:23, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Seriously affected studio shooting[edit]

"Faust seriously affected studio shooting and special effects techniques. Murnau uses two cameras, both filming multiple shots; many scenes were filmed time and again."

Using two cameras (or more) was standard procedure in the 1920s, both in Europe and in the U.S. (see any Chaplin or Griffith biography). This yielded double negatives, with slightly different angles, and the worse shots would be used for export prints. As for "many scenes were filmed time and again", this was also standard procedure from the 1910s and on. So what's the point of that sentence? It certainly doesn't illustrate "seriously affected studio shooting".

"Both filming multiple shots" - what does that even mean? How could two cameras not film multiple shots? 2A02:AA1:102B:BC72:A0A9:7B30:8BEC:FB7F (talk) 15:34, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
