* [[ANTA.N.T. Farm]] uses this when Olive paints Chyna's bedroom wall green during a slumber party, Chyna uses [[Stock Footage]] from a movie for her background while video chatting with Lexi, to prove that her slumber party is cooler than Lexi's. Everyone in the background is at least 10 years older than Chyna and are dressed like they're in a nightclub. [[Idiot Ball|It works even when Olive puts on a hoodie the same color as the green wall]], which blanks out everything except her head until Chyna covers it up.

* While a lot of the scenes actually were filmed on location, in some of the cosmic calendar and Library of Alexandria scenes in [[Cosmos]], you can see this effect around [[Carl Sagan]]. It's combined with Motion Control to make it look as if he's walking through model sets. Apart from a few full-size props the entire Library of Alexandria is actually a model, and the effect is highly convincing.
