Using a scene from a film in the background of my scene?

I would recommend finding another film you want to use ASAP. Japanese studios do not give the rights to things for free or cheap. It'd be great if they said yes to your project, but companies here in Japan are very protective of their IP's. Especially when it's such a huge property as Evangelion.

Yeah I was worried about that. I can film something myself I guess it'll be a fun little challenge
