A Camera Trick where, in order to show focus on a particular thing, two black bars will emerge from the top and bottom of the screen in order to bring about some drama by changing the aspect ratio, Letterbox-like. Often done with eyes in order to showcase the intense stare of our hero, who, nine times out of ten is staring down his opponent, but not exclusively. Said bars are often accompanied by a nifty sound effect. Possibly originates from attempts by producers of TV to recreate the same intense effect that Sergio Leone achieved with his massive closeups in his Spaghetti Western films — which don't work so well in non-widescreen shots. Seen often in Animesque shows or other animated programs. See also Aspect Ratio Switch, Extreme Close-Up, Eye Cam, Eye Take, Iris Out, One-Eyed Shot, and Super Move Portrait Attack. Not to be confused with Eye Scream. |

Megas XLR, pictured above, does this all the frickin' time. Heck, you can't even get through the opening theme without being assaulted by this trope. And by "assaulted by this trope", we mean that most of the opening consists of this. |

Samurai Jack glories in this. The title card itself is an Eyedscreen. This was parodied in the Duck Dodgers episode "Samurai Quack". When this happens to Dodgers (playing Jack), he notices the effect and actually tries to push out the black bars. | |

Parodied to hell and back in an episode of Yin Yang Yo! where various characters do this when plotting something - then promptly note how cramped it is, take their hands out, and push the bars back to the ends of the screen. The bars get thinner and thinner to the point, by the end of the episode physically squishing Yin and Yang between them from the horizontal sides. | |

The original versions of Red vs. Blue had black bars added to hide the Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2 Heads-Up Display (the remasters lacked them for using the PC version, which had the option to turn off the HUD). Season 15 also had a case where a cameraman said "I just discovered the anamorphic setting on my camera! This is gonna look epic!", so cue the black bars, along with an Ennio Morricone Pastiche! | |

Persona 3 uses this sometimes when a Persona is about to hit a weak point with a spell or make a critical hit with a physical attack. The Superboss does this before the fight, indicating how much trouble you're in. When fighting Strega or your fellow party members they do this on the first turn as they summon their persona. |

Persona 4 also does this. You know you're in trouble when Adachi does this, revealing he has a Persona. Persona 4: Arena instead uses an eyedscreen to highlight that the character shown in it has entered Awakening (or that a Shadow-type character has entered Shadow Frenzy in Ultimax). |

Persona 5 "tears" strips of paper out of the screen to reveal characters' eyes both when they perform critical attacks with their persona and when they're having a particularly emotional moment in a cutscene. The Legacy Boss Battle DLC in Royal against the previous two protagonists use their original versions under the same conditions. |

Following in the footsteps of The Dark Knight in 2008, many films invert this for their IMAX releases by including select scenes in a taller aspect ratio (between 1.44:1 and 1.90:1) while the general release is in a more standard aspect ratio (generally around 2.35:1) for the whole film. Generally the "opend up" versions are used on home video, but this is not always the case. Other examples of this include most entries in the Marvel Cinematic Universe from Captain America: Civil War onward, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, and Interstellar. |

The Legend of Zelda: The The Legend of Zelda: Oracle Games feature a closeup on Link's eyes in the opening sequence. The non-eye variation is used in all 3D games when Z-targeting. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker uses a fake 2.35:1 aspect ratio during cutscenes. In cutscenes that transition seamlessly to gameplay, the fake letterbox bars slide off the screen, revealing the eyedscreen effect. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. The character icons in the game's selection menu focus on the characters' faces, specifically their eyes. Those with smaller faces have their whole faces visible in the icon bar, but normal-sized and large characters only have their eyes visible with this effect. |

In the Phineas and Ferb episode "Unfair Science Fair", Candace and her rival Wendy use this trope in emphasizing their competition. In "Doofapus", Both Doofenshmirtz and Perry have one before they fight each other. Skip to 1:30 in "this video" for an example in motion. |

Persona: Persona 3 uses this sometimes when a Persona is about to hit a weak point with a spell or make a critical hit with a physical attack. The Superboss does this before the fight, indicating how much trouble you're in. When fighting Strega or your fellow party members they do this on the first turn as they summon their persona. Persona 4 also does this. You know you're in trouble when Adachi does this, revealing he has a Persona. Persona 4: Arena instead uses an eyedscreen to highlight that the character shown in it has entered Awakening (or that a Shadow-type character has entered Shadow Frenzy in Ultimax). Persona 5 "tears" strips of paper out of the screen to reveal characters' eyes both when they perform critical attacks with their persona and when they're having a particularly emotional moment in a cutscene. The Legacy Boss Battle DLC in Royal against the previous two protagonists use their original versions under the same conditions. |

After Gopal hits BoBoiBoy Thunderstorm in the back of the head with a frying pan, the latter sharply turns his head and glares at him, the sound of a drawn sword accompanying the black bars from the top and bottom about his eyes. |

Used occasionally in Super Sentai (and thus Power Rangers) as part of the Calling Your Attacks sequence. Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger and Power Rangers Ninja Storm do this with nearly every mecha finisher. Power Rangers RPM had a rare practical effects version where they cast light over the actor's eyes while the rest of them was incomplete shadow. As they would be morphed at the time, the light cast would be in the shape of their respective visors as a sort of inside-the-helmet view. |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Used in Episode 7 "Dragonshy" when the Mane Cast is preparing for confront the dragon. Chief Thunderhooves of the buffalo tribe uses the effect several times in "Over a Barrel". In "Flight to the Finish", when Diamond Tiara gets the idea to shatter Scootaloo's confidence by mocking her flight problems, the screen shifts to focus on her eyes with Scootaloo's wings reflected in them. In "Twilight's Kingdom – Part 2", Tirek gets this when he tells Discord You Have Outlived Your Usefulness. In "Slice of Life", a slanted one over Bon Bon's eyes concludes her big revelation to Lyra. |

There's a nice example in Teen Titans, during the famous Judas Contract storyline. In the first "book," we were seeing things through Terra's eyes, and towards the end of the issue, when Terra accidentally slips up a little (she basically beat up Changelingnote Beast Boy senseless during an exercise), she barely managed to cover it up with most of the Titans... but not with Raven.◊ | |

The sequence that plays before each cross-examination in the Ace Attorney series looks like this except with two sets of eyes, one from each lawyer, glaring at each other. In Investigations, this happens before every testimony/argument, so there are Eyedscreens even for people like Gumshoe, Larry Butz and Lauren Paups. | |

Zone 66: The opening cinematic starts off as a very narrow rectangle of the actual footage, with black bars taking up a full two-thirds of the screen. | |

Event Horizon: Played with to horrifying effect, where you get a wonderful close-up of Sam Neill's eye sockets after he has gouged his eyes out, while he bellows and rants like only a possessed Sam Neill can. Not exactly this trope, because of course the film is already in a letterbox, and possibly an homage to those old Spaghetti Westerns. | |

Done in Revenge of the Sith with General Grievous when he's threatening Obi Wan. Loses some impact in the pan-and-scan cut of the film, though—his eyes are spread wide apart compared to a human character, so the camera ends up centered on his forehead, with his actual eyes just off screen. | |

Brutally parodied in an episode of Yam Roll — the letterbox effect gets smaller and smaller until you can hardly tell what it's focusing on. | |

Done in the Wander over Yonder episode "The Matchmaker" when Sylvia uses a fight with Something-the-So-and-So to distract Wander from delivering a love letter to Dominator, but he immediately snaps out seconds later and politely declines it. | |
