== Anime &and Manga ==
* ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]'', in the first episode and an opening sequence.
* In the final fight scene in the first episode of the anime ''[[Samurai Champloo]]'', the camera not only jitters, but also loses focus at one point. The effect shows up in a few other episodes as well, always in a fight scene. Looks cool, although drawing attention to the camera raises the question of [[Anachronism Stew|what a cameraman was doing in Edo Japan]]. [[False Camera Effects|Or a cartoon]].
Line 75:
* ''[[24]]''.
* ''[[Firefly]]'' was notable for being the first show that ''simulated'' the jittercam effect in its CGI sequences.
* The 2003 reboot of ''[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined(2004 TV series)|Battlestar Galactica]]''. The use, at least in the space scenes, was actually called for by writer/producer Ronald D. Moore, in his manifesto on "naturalistic science-fiction." The idea was that while in conventional film-making it is important never to draw attention to the camera in order to avoid breaking [[Suspension of Disbelief]], CGI special effects shots tend to fall into a sort of [[Uncanny Valley]] effect. The CGI shots in ''Battlestar Galactica'' were therefore shot using only camera placements and techniques that theoretically could have been used if the show were, in fact a documentary.
* The ''[[Doctor Who]]'' episode "Love & Monsters".
** The more recent episodes are entirely filmed with Jittercam. Just look at "Let's Kill Hitler", for one example.
