* Used during almost every dialogue scene in the ''[[Star Wars]]'' prequel trilogy.▼
== Live-Action TV ==
* Any scene that involved both twins interacting in ''[[The Patty Duke Show]]''.
* The episode "Lie to Me" from the second season of ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'' features this ad nauseam in the outside-the-school discussion between Buffy and Ford.

* Michael and Hurley's conversation in season 6 of ''[[Lost]]'' were filmed this way, presumably because they only had Harold Perrineau for a short time.

* Examined by [[Charlie Brooker]] on ''[[Screenwipe]]'', where he showed how much [[Manipulative Editing]] can be accomplished by interposing [[Reaction Shot|otherwise pointless shots of the interviewer nodding]] to cover the edits in the subject's answers.
▲* Used during almost every dialogue scene in the ''[[Star Wars]]'' prequel trilogy.
* ''[[Veronica Mars]]'' had to improvise an exchange between Veronica and a musician when the actor playing the musician couldn't come in to re-do the take. They hashed together the version where they were together with the one where [[Kristen Bell]] was delivering her lines to no one.
