Summary

[edit]

A screenshot of the music video for "Billie Jean" (from the Thriller album) featuring Michael Jackson.

Rationale of fair use for Billie Jean

[edit]
  1. The image shows Jackson landing en pointe on a tile, which has illuminated at his touch. This part of the video is the subject of critical commentary within the Billie Jean article, specifically "Dancing his way to Billie Jean's hotel room, Jackson walks along a sidewalk, each tile lighting up at his touch. Performing a quick spin, Jackson jumps and lands, freeze framed, on his toes."
  2. Visual aid to support prose of the video within the article.
  3. The image is a screenshot from a promotional music video originally created by Michael Jackson for Epic Records, and intended for wide distribution.
  4. The screenshot is of lower resolution and quality than the original video (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).
  5. No free or public domain images have been located for this single.
  6. The screenshot does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the single or music video in any way.
  7. The screenshot is used as a visual enhancement to the reader's understanding of the video.
  8. The screenshot is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original single or music video in any way.
