Line 178:
* ''[[Harry Potter (film)|Harry Potter]]''. The footprint method is used in the third movie when Harry wears the cloak outside while it's snowing.
** However in any shot where he's putting on or taking off the cloak, it falls into the category of [[Special Effects Failure|distortion]] due to the use of the [[Chroma Key|green-screen technique]] to make the cloak appear invisible.
** The [[Harry Potter (video game)|video game version]] of ''[[Harry Potter (Franchise)/Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone|Philosopher's Stone]]'' uses the Partly Transparent method. And although we can see Harry the whole time, they didn't bother to put a cloak on him -- you know, the thing that's actually supposed to be making him invisible in the first place.
* ''[[The Lord of the Rings (film)|The Lord of the Rings]]'' trilogy, with Frodo. The only way we could tell where he was in the last part was by his footprints.
** Bilbo was invisible to the audience while wearing the ring. However, when Frodo wore the ring, we saw a distorted version of reality with him in it.
Line 247:
* In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|The Legend of Zelda a Link To T He Past]]'', when Link uses the Magic Cloak to turn invisible, he's completely so, but [[Fridge Logic|somehow]] [[The Shadow Knows|still has a shadow under him]].
* Princess Peach still casts a shadow in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', after she drinks the invisibility potion and (presumably) [[Invisible Streaker|gets naked]].
* Hector the Reflector, a ''[[YoshisYoshi's Island|Yoshi's Island DS]]'' boss enemy, is invisible, but fights in an arena with a mirror in which you can see the boss reflected. He also smashes the mirror more and more as the battle goes on.
* In ''[[Command and Conquer]]: Red Alert'', cloaked units are shown as shadows to their general (copying the style of how submerged submarines are shown; indeed, there are normally no cloaking land units in the game barring bonus crates).
* In ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', you can see your clothes and shadow when invisible. You can see most invisible enemies' shadows as well.
