Purpose of use

The screenshot illustrates several different aspects of the closing sequence—including filming, visual effects, themes and reception. The filmmakers introduced the shot to reflect the "hopeful and sad" atmosphere at the end of the film, and to specifically create a period of emotional reflection for audiences, an intent that would be difficult to covey using words alone, as the emotional intent is guided by the use of perspective and activity (human and vehicular). The image also provides the reader with specific reference points for the corresponding article text, which breaks down the details of this particular shot—how it was imagined and constructed, and which elements were computer-generated. As the scene is described as representative of the types of effects sequences that feature throughout the rest of the film, in this way the image presents a broader insight into the effects than a description of this one scene would provide. It also provides a point of reference for third-party coverage that praises the seamless merging of photorealistic CGI vistas with live footage.
