Editing Guidelines

Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article:

If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film)
- For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films)
When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references.
Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

Stub to Start-Class Upgrading Instructions for Films

Note that instructions for articles on other types of film topics within the scope of WikiProject Films are currently under development.

To contribute in upgrading this stub article to Start class, the following requirements must be met:

Significant intro (list the title, alternate titles, year released, director, actors starring in the film, summary of headings, etc.)
Film infobox ({{infobox film}})
Picture: Consult WikiProject Free Images for freely released images from a film shoot, opening, or other relevant free image. Non-free and unlicensed images are to be avoided if at all possible, but if used should include a detailed fair use rationale. (An image is not required for start class if unavailable.)
Plot summary
Include cast and crew information.
At least two other developed sections of information (production, reception (including box office figures), awards and honors, themes, differences from novel or TV show, soundtrack, sequels, DVD release, etc.)
Categories (by year, country, language, and genre(s))

Helpful links: WP:BETTER, WP:LEAD, WP:REF, WP:WAF

Once this article has fulfilled these requirements, the film can be reassessed to Start class and this template will be removed automatically.

[edit] Proposed merge with hip hop montage

Oppose - hip hop montage refers to footage which is specifically fast motion (as in the opposite of slow motion). You can argue that it's a subset of fast cutting because it also tends to employ fast cutting as well, although I'm not certain that this is uniformly the case.

From what little is actually said on the subject, it appears that it is actually a subset [1]. Both articles refer to the technique used in the same examples, and that one link I found refers to the "hip hop montage" as a jump cut. I'd say that's enough to make it a sub section on this article. Radagast83 18:02, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Inaccurate Use of Film Terms

Fast cutting is the act of cutting quickly from one image to another. It is a common technique used in many films and television shows and has not been most recently used in Requiem for a Dream, but rather is used mostly to quickly jump from one shot to another.
