Also called a "fake documentary", a "mockumentary" is a fictional movie shot in the style of a documentary. While the name of the genre implies comedy (such as This is Spın̈al Tap), the format can also work with horror (The Blair Witch Project or other Found Footage Films) and disasters. Fake news reports done by real life newsreaders are common, along with interviews with 'experts', real or fictional. One thing you won't see, however, is famous actors in these movies unless they're playing themselves. We might intellectually know this is a movie as scripted as any other, but having the camera follow Brad Pitt for 90 minutes would break immersion. The BBC did a lot of Mockumentaries in the late 2000s (to the point of two or three a month), mostly of potential regional-worldwide disasters. One BBC newsreader commented he did news reports for these programmes about twice a month. Due to the miracle of computer-generated animation, the Discovery Channel has also taken to making mockumentaries about wildlife that no longer exists, such as dinosaurs, or has never existed, such as dragons, in the "filmed in their natural habitat" format. See also: the Documentary Episode, a Framing Device or plot used for certain episodes on a drama or comedy series. Meanwhile, the Faux Documentary is what a Mockumentary becomes when it often discards the constraints of a supposed documentary crew. Also see Left It In, when people in the documentary directly request (to the camera) that something be cut or edited out, a request that is denied, since you, the viewer, still get to see it. Found Footage Films are what you get when the characters didn't survive long enough to finish the documentary and only left the raw footage. A related trope is Phony Newscast, when a fictional work is presented as a news program. Compare Faux-To Guide, Speculative Documentary, and Scrapbook Story. Contrast: Documentary, Documentary of Lies. |

Adam Westing | |
| Mockumentary / int_120d0e3f | comment |
Pittsburgh is an unusual example in that it weaves an Adam Westing narrative around actual events: A 2004 Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera production of The Music Man that featured Jeff Goldblum as Harold Hill, Ed Begley, Jr. as the Mayor of River City, and Illeana Douglas as the Mayor's wife. The three are friends in real life, and staged, improvised vignettes that gently exaggerate their egos/personas (Goldblum's risking his career in blockbuster movies for this gig, Begley's shopping around a solar-power gadget, Douglas gets involved in an ill-fated relationship with Moby) alternate with actual audition, rehearsal, and performance footage and talk show/news coverage. | |

Camp Gay | |
| Mockumentary / int_722b3319 | comment |
Bruno is a Camp Gay Austrian fashion and culture reporter who typically interviews people one would expect to hold homophobic beliefs, such as frat boys and skinheads. He also interviews people in the fashion world and tricks them to contradicting themselves or revealing a lack of awareness of anything outside of fashion. Made the center of the film Brüno (2009)''. | |

Psychic Powers | |
| Mockumentary / int_874176be | comment |
The Atticus Institute (2015) is a Mockumentary account - mostly interviews - of a series of 1970s experiments to assess the Psychic Powers of a telekinetic woman. Or so it seemed initially; the story gets creepier as it becomes clear that she's really the victim of Demonic Possession. | |

Ur-Example | |
| Mockumentary / int_b20fdfc8 | comment |
The Ur-Example is probably the Mercury Theatre's infamous adaptation of The War of the Worlds. This was so realistically presented as "breaking news" of a Martian invasion that many of those who tuned in after the start mistook it for real. | |

Borat is a bigoted and childlike man from Kazakhstan who is utterly clueless about American culture and values. He constantly inserts his own deeply offensive beliefs, which often go unchallenged by the guests. The character became the focus of the movie Borat. | |

Ali G is a white guy who affects a hip-hop aesthetic and interviews major world leaders while displaying a catastrophic misunderstanding of every topic touched upon. The character became the center of a film told in a tradition narrative rather than a mockumentary, Ali G Indahouse. | |

Unbuilt Trope | |
| Mockumentary / int_f0e85546 | comment |
Might be considered to date back to 1914 in Unbuilt Trope form to Kid Auto Races at Venice, the third film featuring Charlie Chaplin and the second one in which he wore the Tramp costume. The conceit of the six-minute short has the film crew recording a soap box derby race at Venice, CA, only for an annoying attention whore stranger (Charlie) to continually get in front of the camera and ruin the shots. | |
