When you need rock-solid evidence that something happened or that someone committed a certain act, having it all caught on video (or audio) tape is just about the most convincing piece of proof there is. Even a Villain with Good Publicity won't be able to just wave criticism away when footage of them kicking dogs to death reaches the public. In fact, the absolute certainty that video evidence provides is such a common trope that subverting it has become a very popular plot twist, usually by revealing that the footage has been doctored, or that the camera angle involved resulted in Not What It Looks Like. And, yes, the video doesn't have to be recorded on actual tape; DVDs or computer files, or even perhaps that video recorded from your cell phone will work just as well, but old idioms die hard. However, the photographic version (which is frequently less damning due to being still) is Convenient Photograph. Often used to achieve an Engineered Public Confession or an Accidental Public Confession. May be achieved by a Magical Security Cam. |

The Casagrandes episode "Just Be Coo" has Sergio's friend, Pancho, being accused of pooping on a statue and wanting to hide out at the Casagrandes' apartment to avoid being sent to the pound with all the rest of the pigeons having been captured, but he quickly proves to be too much of a hassle, forcing Sergio to kick him out. When Sancho is captured, Sergio and Lalo, feeling guilty, mount a rescue mission, where they discover that Marcus, the animal wrangler, framed the pigeons, as the poop was really pistachio ice cream. When Marcus captures Lalo and Sergio for learning the truth, the two call Ronnie Anne for help, where Sergio shows everyone the Mercado security footage via her laptop of Marcus splattering the statue with the ice cream. Ronnie Anne threatens to post the video on Jim Sparkletooth's website unless Marcus freed everyone, at which point he breaks down and confesses why he did it: the pigeons never invite him to their parties, and when he's not doing his job, he has a life outside of it. Sergio takes pity on Marcus and lets him join the party after he releases them. | |

The plot of The Player of Games is triggered by a pseudo-aversion. Thousands of years into the future, video manipulation is so advanced and commonplace that no one would dream of considering videos as proof of anything, because it is trivially easy to produce pixel-perfect representations of anything you want. The eponymous grandmaster is very surprised when he is blackmailed by an unexpectedly advanced drone and has to learn that there are indeed levels of event-recording that will be accepted as genuine when a sufficiently sophisticated AI vouches for them. | |

In Better Off Ted Veronica turns out to have a tape of the time she and Ted had sex, confiscated off a security guard who apparently had dozens of similar tapes. Ted ends up showing the tape to Linda, not because of the sex (which she already knew about), but because it revealed that the e-mail Linda swore she had sent Ted had been accidentally deleted during the act, explaining why Ted never received it. | |

The mood is sombre among those watching. As a Brick Joke, Katrina switches off the camera, causing the children around her to utter a disappointed "Oh!". Hector does likewise, and Lexie says "Oh!" disappointedly. | |

In You Don't Own Me, this proves to be the killer's undoing. After Leigh Ann unsuccessfully tries to kill Joe Brenner and they are both surrounded by the police, Leigh Ann tries to play innocent, saying that Brenner confessed to killing Martin Bell, has been blackmailing her (which is true) and kidnapped and tried to kill her. Leo and Laurie both know she's actually the killer, but have no hard evidence... until Brenner reveals he had been recording his and Leigh Ann's conversation, the way he does with all his conversations, including Leigh Ann admitting to having murdered Martin and her intention to kill Brenner too. At this point, Leigh Ann drops the act, knowing there's no way for her to wriggle out of this one. | |

He did so by having Mickey arrested for stealing a baseball from his house and shows the court a tape of "Mickey" breaking into Mortimer's house to steal the ball. The court fell for it, but Mickey got released when the police found the words "Property of Mickey Mouse" on the ball. | |

Eli Stone: One episode featured a baseballer who was charged with murder because a ball he hit had killed a person he hated and the prosecutor claimed the baseballer aimed for the victim. The prosecutor tried to introduce a DVD suggesting the defendant did have the skills to aim but, since the DVD was anonymous, it became inadmissible as evidence for being more prejudicial than reliable. (The prosecutor couldn't prove it wasn't doctored.) | |

The villains of Machete are completely Too Dumb to Live in regards to this trope. Booth is pretty dumb for crucifying a priest while explaining his villainous plan and not bothering to remove the clearly visible security cameras, but the Senator takes the cake for actually asking that someone videotape him while he's committing murder, and actually requesting that he get a copy of the DVD afterwards. | |

In the fifth season of 24, former President David Palmer is assassinated and the wife of current president Charles Logan, Martha Logan, is convinced it has something to do with something he wanted to tell her. She says that they had a phone conversation the night before in which he expressed that he wanted to talk to her in person about a matter of national security. So somebody dredges up a recording in which Palmer says that "it's hardly a matter of national security" but he wants to invite her to a charity dinner. Of course, everyone dismisses her as crazy because she's had mental issues in the past and is on meds, but later it turns out the recording is doctored or fake. | |

Happens twice during The Karma of Lies: Hawkmoth's downfall is solidified when news cameras catch him detransforming, revealing his Secret Identity to the world. During the Final Battle with Mayura, Adrien offers a hand up to Nathalie, only for her to steal the Black Cat Ring and use it alongside the Peacock Pin to transform again into a more powerful form. As with Hawkmoth's last fight, this is caught on camera, and completely ruins Adrien's reputation, as it looks as though he willingly handed his Ring over. |

In Relativity, Sara and Greg have just gotten married when they bump into Sara's old flame, Martin Bling. When Bling finds out Greg is a chef, he mentions that he may want to visit his restaurant one day. Sara mutters under her breath, "Maybe you'll get food poisoning." Ten stories later (and over a year, in-universe), Bling does go to Greg's restaurant... and gets poisoned. His lawyers dig up the security footage of Sara and hire lip-readers to figure out what she said. Oops. | |

In Homestuck, there is a scene where One of the many Araidabot's Soulbot Video Logs shows the battle against the Black King. This technically counts as caught on tape as proof for Andrew Hussie to prevent the readers from bugging him about what happened during the battle. | |

Hey Arnold! The Movie: Scheck tried to demolish several homes and businesses to erect a shopping center and avenge one of his ancestors, who was a commanding Redcoat in the Revolutionary War. He gloated to Arnold and Gerald and burned the document that established the area as a historical site, thus making it illegal to demolish it. While it was important for Scheck to have surveillance cameras all over his building to prevent intruders from stealing the document, it proves to be a big mistake because his crime of burning it was recorded by his own surveillance cameras, at which point Arnold managed to obtain a videotape showing the document fully before it was burned, then he, Gerald and Helga (who secretly assisted the boys the whole time under the guise of "Deep Voice") show it to the infuriated townspeople, resulting in Scheck's eventual arrest. | |

Columbo The episode "Etude in Black" has this as what breaks the killer's alibi. The killer was filmed conducting a concert without his signature boutonniere, but later at the crime scene, the news crews present record him leaving with it. Faced with this, the killer's wife refuses to lie for him anymore. Similarly, in "Playback" Columbo notices in security footage that a party invitation on the desk in the room where the victim was killed mysteriously vanishes. Since the man he suspects is the killer presented the invitation at the party, Columbo figures out that he prerecorded an empty room and spliced in the footage to convince the security guard on duty that the murder occurred after he had left. |

DuckTales (1987) had an episode where Flintheart Glomgold framed Scrooge with art theft by showing a tape of 'Scrooge' stealing the painting. It worked at first but Huey, Dewey, and Louie eventually found out the tape caught a reflection of 'Scrooge' taking off his disguise, revealing himself as Flintheart Glomgold. | |

In "Movie Night" from Butterbean's Cafe, Butterbean and her crew decide to host a movie night at Butterbean's Cafe. Ms. Marmalady hatches a plan to ruin it and force everyone to come to her place for movie night. She goes around to the crew of the cafe one by one, each suggesting a different type of movie that's supposedly popular in Puddlebrook in order to get them arguing about it so they can't decide on what movie to show. Unfortunately for her, Cricket is onto her and films her interactions with everyone, then plays them back after the arguments begin to reveal that they're only fighting because Ms. Marmalady stoked them to. | |

On American Dad! a traffic camera records Roger running someone over and leaving them to die. However, he's wearing a paper thin Kevin Bacon disguise at the time, so it's the Hollywood actor who gets arrested. Even Bacon himself, who was thousands of miles away when the hit-and-run happened, believes he must have committed the crime and repressed the memory, because "it's clearly me on the tape!" In "Bully for Steve", Principal Lewis showed the Smiths a tape of Stan bullying Steve caught on the security cameras. It also caught Principal Lewis downing a twelve-pack of beer and urinating on the basketball court, and a janitor turning into a werewolf and attacking a student. |

In Yakuza 2, the incident at the Amano Building with Date and Kawara in a standoff against Kazuki's impostor is caught on tape and used to implicate Date for murder, because it shows Date shooting the victim... and that's all. The angle of the footage shows only the two of them despite there being four other people at the scene (Kiryu, Sayama, Kawara, and Kazuki), and more importantly doesn't show that Date didn't shoot first. | |

Zootopia: This is how Judy blackmails Nick into working with her. Using a pen with a built-in voice recorder, she records his boast about all the money his schemes have made, then threatens to bust him for tax evasion (since he hasn't reported it as income) unless he helps her. Later, Judy uses her smartphone to record the conversation between Mayor Lionheart and a doctor about the berserk animals, making him look like the one responsible for their disappearance. After Judy comes back to Nick after quitting the force, she apologizes to him saying "I really am just a dumb bunny." He records this, then plays it back, saying that he'll let her erase it in 48 hours. Finally, Judy uses her pen to record Bellwether's confession, ensuring that the police she called herself now have evidence to arrest her. |

When Toshinori confronts her, he reveals that he's fully aware of her online activities slandering his family, giving her a massive "The Reason You Suck" Speech which is all caught on camera — and since Nitta's initial reaction is delight that he read her blog, this doubles as an Accidental Public Confession. | |

On Joe Schmo 2, the second season of The Joe Schmo Show, this is one of the things that leads Ingrid Wiese (the show's first "Jane Schmo" character) to realize that something is very much off about what's going on and possibly the final nail in the coffin. Cammy leads her into the bathroom to tell her an embarrassing story about having been in a food fetish video called Porked 'n Beans, saying that she's worried the producers are going to find out about it and use it against her. As she's telling the story, the cameraman has to step outside because the batteries on his camera have gone out. Any normal person would keep telling the story and probably be grateful for not having the cameras there. Cammy, however, or rather her actress, Jana Speaker, stops telling the story, deliberately waiting until the cameraman returns to resume it, as if she actually wants everything she says to be on camera. (Which she does, as this whole scenario is going to be an important plot point going forward with the series.) | |

Wheel Squad: Akim and Johnny were once arrested for robbery and a security tape from World Mart had been introduced as evidence against them. It turned out that Enzo, the manager of World Mart, doctored the tape because his boss wasn't satisfied that the extra cameras had yet to diminish the place's theft rate. | |

Family Matters: Season 8's "The Jury" has Carl and Steve serving on the same jury when a janitor at a jewelry store is accused of stealing the store's merchandise. It seems as though with the whole thing caught on camera, they have him dead to rights, but Steve thinks he was framed and the footage was doctored to make it look like he did it. The jury refuses to believe Steve until the very end when he proves that the store's security guard is the real culprit, as he didn't count on anyone taking a closer look at the footage, which shows his reflection in a mirror. Implied near the end of Season 8's "Karate Kids" when the Winslows' obnoxious neighbor, Nick Neidermeyer, feigns an injury and threatens to sue the family for the damages. The family stages a fake kitchen fire to drive him out of the house, with Eddie having captured everything on tape, forcing Neidermeyer to drop the lawsuit, though not before going through a Humiliation Conga. |

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney In Justice for All Case 2-4, you learn that Matt Engarde put a spying camera into the room that turned into the crime scene, specifically to record the murder happening. Later on, a videotape becomes evidence - whether the contents on the tape is the murder or something else is never revealed, as the video is never watched. The case specifically created for the DS "Rise from the Ashes" deals with a murder in the evidence room at one point. Said room had a security camera recording everything, but nothing conclusive was seen because a moving thing was in the camera view all the time. Turns out that no murder took place in that room, merely a fight that resulted in two people being injured. Well, a murder DID happen in that room however the incident caught on tape wasn't this murder but just a fight between two people. The actual murder took place prior to this fight. |

Except he forgot that he disabled his cameras while he and Tuesday were busy trying to frame Truman for the toilet bomb prank earlier in the episode after their failed attempts at getting him to misbehave, so he didn't really record anything, and Tuesday is given Truman's original punishment of being sent to mime camp. | |

This naturally comes into play when Bustier finds herself going on trial for encouraging her class to harass Marinette after she transferred to another school. Alya gets another dose of this when she tries to recruit her classmates into a Malicious Slander campaign against Marinette's new friends. Among those who witness and record this is Alya's older sister Nora, who presents the footage to Alya's parents. |

When his parents and the police are too dumb to believe him when he tries to tell them that the school bully, Francis, is the real culprit, having found a shoplifted walkie-talkie in his pants, Timmy is forced to go on the run in order to catch Francis red-handed and clear his name. Near the end of the episode, Timmy is able to prove it when Cosmo shapeshifts into a security camera and catches Francis stealing a tub of lard. | |

When Alya reviewed the footage of the akuma attack at the end of the chapter, she finds out that Kagami was hit by a single airplane, and it was more than likely to Alya that the second plane hit Lila instead and made her act like the opposite of her true self. | |

The Loud House: The Casagrandes episode "Just Be Coo" has Sergio's friend, Pancho, being accused of pooping on a statue and wanting to hide out at the Casagrandes' apartment to avoid being sent to the pound with all the rest of the pigeons having been captured, but he quickly proves to be too much of a hassle, forcing Sergio to kick him out. When Sancho is captured, Sergio and Lalo, feeling guilty, mount a rescue mission, where they discover that Marcus, the animal wrangler, framed the pigeons, as the poop was really pistachio ice cream. When Marcus captures Lalo and Sergio for learning the truth, the two call Ronnie Anne for help, where Sergio shows everyone the Mercado security footage via her laptop of Marcus splattering the statue with the ice cream. Ronnie Anne threatens to post the video on Jim Sparkletooth's website unless Marcus freed everyone, at which point he breaks down and confesses why he did it: the pigeons never invite him to their parties, and when he's not doing his job, he has a life outside of it. Sergio takes pity on Marcus and lets him join the party after he releases them. |

The Leverage team love this way to take down marks. Notable is a few times, the marks almost know they're on camera, they just don't know how bad it'll look. In "The Homecoming Job," a corrupt Congressman and his CEO partner are tricked into summoning reporters to find the truck packed with millions of dollars in cash they've been stealing from military contracts. The pair try to play off that they've uncovered this scam themselves...at which point, all the reporters' cell phones go off to play video of an argument the pair had exposing their greed so they both go down. In the Leverage: Redemption episode "The Tower Job," just as it looks like Krista is about to get away with it, the team sends a video to her rich friends showing Krista practically bragging about knowingly building shoddy buildings so she could pocket more money for herself. Even if she avoids jail time for it, that friend makes it clear that once word gets around, Krista "will never sell so much as a timeshare again." |

When it seems as though his ruse is about to succeed due to SpongeBob and Patrick having called the OWS (Office Worker Safety) Department for help in investigating the accident, it quickly falls apart when Mr. Krabs remembers the surveillance camera he set up. The footage reveals that Squidward faked his injuries while trying to sleep on the job, and he now has to spend the rest of his workday pampering Krabs as the latter did throughout the episode. |

Fashion Upgrade has this happen to Lila twice over: First, when she attempts to sneak into the dressing room used by Ms. Mendeleiev's class and sabotage their fashion show, she's caught on camera triggering an ink trap. In this case, the larger and more immediate punishment is that said ink means she can't go onstage, ceding her role to her understudy. This leads to the second incident. Jealous of how Mylene and the other actors are being praised for their performances, Lila starts harassing her... and Ivan, Mylene's boyfriend, catches it on camera. Unlike Alicia, who spared Lila the extra humiliation of releasing the footage, Ivan is more than happy to reveal to the whole school just how she's been treating his girlfriend. |

CONSEQUENCES: In BREAKING AND ENTERING, Lila hits Marinette, steals her diary, and gloats that none of Marinette's "dumb little friends" will ever speak to her again once Lila's revealed all her secrets. Alya then reveals her presence — and that she's been filming the whole encounter. She promptly turns the video over to the police. SUN'S WRATH has this screw Lila over twice. First, when she shoves Luka out in front of a car, the driver's dashboard camera catches it. He's then able to show the footage to Hell-ios when the vengeful akuma arrives, saving his life and pointing him towards the true culprit. Later, Hell-ios presents her with a Sadistic Choice, claiming that he'll kill an innocent child if Lila doesn't turn herself over. Her refusal to do so is recorded by one of the other civilians hiding out with her group. |

The Wire being a show named after phone surveillance, naturally this comes up, but rarely straightforward: The Unit gets some good intel about the Barksdale organization from hearing D'Angelo have phone sex with his girlfriend, but they can't mark it as pertinent evidence as they löistened to too long to a non-pertinent call. Sergei's Blasé Boast to White Mike "Does he have hands? Does he have face? Yes? It wasn't us" is played back to him in the interrogation room, one of the more straightforward examples of this trope in the show. The team tries to set up so that Proposition Joe's incompetent nephew Drac would get promoted so they'd hear more of his signature subtlety on the wire. The team is surprised to hear the usually very disciplined Cheese mourn having to "shoot Dawg" on the phone, only to find out he was talking about his actual dog, and at best they can charge him with improper disposal of a dead animal. |

In the series finale of Seinfeld the Main Characters are arrested because they watched an armed robbery take place and didn't call the police or do anything else to help. In court, footage that one of them shot themselves is used as evidence against them, showing them watching the robbery and, not only doing nothing to help but actually mocking the victim as the robbery's going on. | |

Forever (2014): In "Look Before You Leap," when a killer has taken Henry hostage with a knife at his throat, Henry obviously isn't worried about dying. He does, however, look nervously at the security camera which would record his death and his body disappearing. | |

An episode of Johnny Bravo had the main character being sent to prison for littering, but Little Suzie and Mama Bravo were able to clear his name when the video taken from a security camera across the street showed that Johnny did throw the candy wrapper inside the trash can and that the wrapper on the ground was actually thrown by some random passer-by. However, Johnny, who was accidentally sent to a women's prison, didn't want to be released. | |

Meanwhile, Back on Earth: Phillip Whittebane/Emperor Belos is hated by the world due to his cold-blooded murder of his own brother, his hazing of his gimwalkers including Hunter,and his attempted genocide of all of the inhabitants of the Boilling Isles, among other things, being broadcasted on the internet and television. In flashbacks from first Andrias's and then Leif's perspective, we get a first-hand look at just how oppressive and nightmarish the Newtopian Empire was at its height towards its conquered worlds, and (as is shown with the plight of the olms) many times its own people, with the former having all of their resources extracted and their people used as slaves at the whims of a small elite. |

Subverted in Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, where the Tachikomas discuss the fact that video footage is practically useless as evidence due to how easily it can be tampered with. Indeed, the Laughing Man's MO relies entirely on this, as he hacks into any recording devices around him (including other people's cyberbrains) and edits himself out of the footage, effectively letting him become invisible. | |

In the Leverage: Redemption episode "The Tower Job," just as it looks like Krista is about to get away with it, the team sends a video to her rich friends showing Krista practically bragging about knowingly building shoddy buildings so she could pocket more money for herself. Even if she avoids jail time for it, that friend makes it clear that once word gets around, Krista "will never sell so much as a timeshare again." | |

A very, very nasty example in False Memory: a woman, who knows someone keeps breaking into her house and raping her in the night, suspects her ex-husband but has no idea how the hell he's doing it, since she locks her house up tight every night, and it's still locked in the morning. She sets up a video camera in a potted plant and discovers that it's her psychiatrist, who's pretty much mind-raped her into granting him complete control over her psyche with a series of code words. Ick. | |

Sanford and Son: The 1976 episode "The Stakeout" has Fred (who had been smitten with a new resident of the Sanford Arms named Ms. Jenkins only to learn that "Ms. Jenkins" was a male thief named Charles Hacker) attempt to get a confession out of Hacker by sneaking a tape recorder under his sweater. He succeeds in doing so, but reality kicks in when the officer in charge of the stakeout notes that the recording was inadmissible evidence and could potentially blow the case. Eventually; Hacker ends up captured after Fred's friend Bubba - like Hacker wearing a dress - managed to follow Hacker (posing again as "Ms. Jenkins") into the ladies' room, heard him blabbing and reported it; managing to get the $1000 reward in the process. | |

Happy Endings has an early episode, with Dave newly moved into Max's apartment, with food going missing. After learning from Alex that Dave sleepwalks, Max borrows Jane's nanny-cam (that she uses to keep an eye on Brad, but that Brad uses to his own advantage) to catch in the act. Turns out, there's an artist squatting upstairs in their crawl space who's been stealing the food. | |
