Article

Intimate Relations (1996 film)

Portion used

The front cover of the VHS is used, in low resolution, a very small portion of the commercial product.

Low resolution?

The image is only used once and is rendered in low resolution to avoid piracy. The image does not in any way limit the ability of the copyright owners to market or sell their product. The image is of much lower resolution than the original, and would not be mistaken for the original. Any copies made from this image would be of inferior quality.

Purpose of use

The image is significant in identifying the subject of the article, which is the film itself. It is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification for informational and educational purposes. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality for uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original product.

Replaceable?

As the film is copyrighted, no free equivalent exists that would effectively identify the article's subject.

Other information

Use of this image in the above article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.

Licensing

[edit]

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

  1. It's a low resolution copy of a Film Poster / VHS or DVD Cover.
  2. It doesn't limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the film in any way, in fact, it may encourage sales.
  3. Because of the low resolution, copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the artwork/image.
  4. The image is itself a subject of discussion in the article or used in the infobox thereof.
  5. The image is significant because it was used to promoted a notable film.
  6. The article for which this use occurs is purely educational in nature and, thus, is non-commercial.
  7. The sole purpose of this use of the copyrighted image is to illustrate the videotape or DVD in question.
  8. Said image is the primary means of visual identification of the main topic of the article; that is, the work that is distributed via the video media.
  9. The image is used only once in the article, and is used in a section or "information box" that is neutral in tone.
  10. The cover of the media is not the "content" specifically being sold by the publisher of the media.
  11. The market for the original videotape product will not be diminished by this use of the image. In fact, this use is likely to encourage the increased legitimate sales of said videos.
  12. Because the image is provided at a low resolution inappropriate for re-printing the video cover, its usage on Wikipedia does not pose a problem of aiding media piracy (the re-printing of covers to accompany pirated discs), or make it so that the copyright holder could not in the future successfully re-sell the image as a print or poster on its own.
  13. Since it is copyrighted video art, the image is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image of comparable educational value.
  14. Digital versions of this image have been previously published on numerous websites, so this use on Wikipedia does not make the image significantly more accessible.
  15. The image is not used in such a way that a reader would be confused into believing that the article is produced, sponsored, or authorized by the owner of the image.
