Invisible characters present a tricky challenge in visual media: If the character is invisible, how can the audience follow what he's doing? To overcome this, creators have invented various methods of visualizing invisibility: The invisible character is visible to the audience. No special effects required, just have the other actors pretend they can't see the invisible ones. Used often in live action, especially when the invisible characters are intangible as well (lots of ghosts are shown this way). Usually accompanied by some verbal cue ("They can't see us!"). It's common to cut to another character's POV to show he's seeing empty space. This tends to be the norm with things Invisible to Normals, with the few scenes from the "normals" perspective hiding them entirely. The invisible character is rendered as a vague distortion of the background. A.K.A. the Predator method. Whether or not the other characters can see the vague distortion varies from work to work. This is also used quite often as a transitional state, as when something switches its invisibility on or off. Overlaps with Invisibility Flicker. The invisible character is partly transparent. The invisible character is shown as an outline. Especially common in comics and animation. The invisible character is completely invisible, even to the audience. Here, the only way to know what the character is doing is by indirect clues, such as the character leaving footprints, picking up objects, wearing a hat, eating something, or walking through smoke or rain. If no such clues are given, the exact position of the character is still often indicated by the camera remaining focused on them to the exclusion of everything else. See also Astral Projection and See the Invisible. Compare Fluorescent Footprints. Not to be confused with using visible shapes to indicate an object that has actually disappeared in general, which is Shapes of Disappearance. |

Everything or Nothing: The Nano Suit can make James Bond invisible, but leaves behind a vague outline. Later on in the game, Nano Guards have the same ability, but they can be defeated with EMP Grenades or Thermal Imaging. There is also a part in one level in which you can shoot an invisible guard without locking on with a Sleeper Dart-equipped Q-Spider. | |

Megamind: Megamind's car is supposed to be invisible. However, audiences can easily see the outline via a camo effect (mostly due to the sun reflecting off the car). And Minion drives the car so recklessly, that even without the reflective sunlight, it's easy see the trail of destruction. Roxanne manages to notice the car only because Titan had laser-cut a building and debris had fallen onto it. | |

Wonder Woman (1942): When Saturnians are using their Invisibility Cloaks and telepathy to makes themselves invisible and inaudable to human senses they are compeletley invisible until Wonder Woman's own telepathy clues her into their presence, following which point the level of detail seen on them is indicative of how much Wonder Woman is concentration on "seeing" them. The most detailed "invisible" Saturnains are rendered in monochrome blue, and at the least as a vauge humanoid dotted outline. | |

Adaptive camo in Ghost Recon: Future Soldier appears like this. Like Crysis, it's not perfect (your character's exposed forearms are still pretty visible in the first level you get it in, for starters), but it's pretty close - enemies from further than a few feet will generally be unable to see you, even if they've been alerted and are firing on your teammates, but the downside is that you can't use it while walking upright, and firing a weapon or being shot at deactivates it. | |

Lamput: Zigzagged. In "Invisible Necklace", the docs steal a special necklace from a magician to turn themselves invisible. As they each take a turn wearing the necklace, they alternate between being visible as white dotted lines and being just plain invisible. When Lamput winds up with the magic item himself, though, he stays more consistently portrayed with white dotted lines. | |

Claude in Heroes is visible to the audience most of the time during his episodes, but when he's introduced at the beginning of an episode, the audience hears his voice and sees him pick up an object, rendering it invisible. Also, the audience has seen him fade in and out of visibility. This causes his fans to believe that after he ran out on Peter, he's in every scene — we just can't see him. Lampshaded by the writers: when asked if they were bringing Claude back, they replied "We already have. Didn't you see him?" | |

Looney Tunes Bugs Bunny in "Water, Water Every Hare" when he becomes invisible; the only giveaway besides flying items is the munched-up carrot that he eats. Wile E. Coyote, thanks to invisible paint, in "War and Pieces". All that's visible are his footprints in the dirt—unfortunate for him when he walks onto a highway and is creamed by an oncoming truck. After that the tracks become noticeably staggered, until he wanders dazedly off a cliff and smashes several Coyote-shaped holes in the clouds as he falls. |

During an episode of Dave the Barbarian, the family has to defeat a group of "Invisigoths," invisible warriors that drove the people out of a neighboring kingdom. Reasoning that the Invisigoths can see each other, Uncle Oswidge turns everyone invisible to the audience, leading to a rather humorous sequence where the audience hears the fight, and the frames are edited to highlight the fight, but we still can't see what's going on. | |

Certain forms of puppetry follow this trope out of necessity. For example, the puppeteers in Avenue Q operate rod or hand puppets but do little to hide themselves from the audience. The general conceit of this is a suspension of disbelief that the actors aren't literally there in the same way that the characters aren't literally on a stage in the context of the story. | |

In Kickassia, Linkara remarks to interviewer Chris Larios that JewWario is extremely good at camouflage, and the camera pans to where the character is supposed to be standing.

Dawn of War: The position of cloaked units is still visible by glowing parts of their armor, Laser Sight, weapons, etc. although you need a nearby detector to allow your units to shoot them; Some units don't have this but are instead given away by the trails left by their weapons' projectiles. Meaning, yes, the orks have the stealthiest unit when not firing. | |

In The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion there are two kinds of invisibility: regular invisibility and chameleon. Regular invisibility uses the transparent effect, unless it's another character using it, in which case they go completely invisible. Chameleon also uses partial transparency, whether it's on your or another person. However, if you reach 100% chameleon, you are completely invisible, even to yourself. This is an infamous Game-Breaker, since regular invisibility goes away when you attack, but chameleon doesn't, and with either in effect, NPCs and enemies won't even try to find you. | |

Some NPCs in World of Warcraft have an ability that makes them invisible. The only way to see them is to wait until they attack (when the spell breaks) or use a detect invisibility spell. Mages also learn an invisibility spell, that causes them to turn progressively transparent until they disappear completely (it last for a very limited time, though). | |

Invisibo, from Freakazoid!, was invisible except for the scepter he always carried. Freakazoid still had trouble finding him, mostly because he's, well, Freakazoid. Due to budget constraints, however, Invisibo appears for most of their first fight as a rod clearly dangling from a piece of rope. Yes, in a cartoon. Fortunately, due to how bad that looked, the producers let them have a higher budget about halfway through the fight. | |

Two episodes of Johnny Test do this: "Spotless Johnny" has Johnny use an experimental stain remover made by his sisters on himself when originally he was meant to use it to clean the house. Johnny can only be seen by the stuff he holds in his hands. "Johnny and Bling Bling Bond Bond" has the twins use an invisibility spray on themselves to avoid Bling Bling Boy. The spray turns everything but their glasses invisible. |

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim uses a mix of distortion and translucency to indicate invisibility. Since certain spells, such as Muffle and the various ____flesh defensive spells, are indicated by glowing outlines of the player, you can get some strange video effects by combining these spells with Invisibility potions or the Invisibility spell. | |

The Metal Gear series, when a character is using stealth camo. The amount of distortion differs between NPC's and the player characters—a stealthed boss will be completely transparent aside from the distortion around the outline, while Snake or Raiden in stealth mode will also have a distinct green tint so you can at least see yourself. In Metal Gear Online, a sharp eye for these can help in stealth team battles. | |

Espio the Chameleon in Sonic Heroes.

Warcraft: In Warcraft III, your own and allies' invisible units are partly transparent, but completely invisible to the enemy (unless they have invisibility-detecting), but you can still get them with splash damage. Then there's that unfortunate Invisibility Flicker... In World of Warcraft, stealthed rogues, druids, night elves, and pets are shown like this. Stealthed enemy characters are completely invisible unless they come too close, though how invisible something hostile is to you depends on your level. If it's above your level you won't see it at all until you're practically on top of it, if it's around the same level it'll show up faintly when you get close, and if it's well below your level you can see it as clearly as a stealthed friendly, though it'll still be semi-transparent. |

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 distortion due to the use of the green-screen technique to make the cloak appear invisible. | |

Wile E. Coyote, thanks to invisible paint, in "War and Pieces". All that's visible are his footprints in the dirt—unfortunate for him when he walks onto a highway and is creamed by an oncoming truck.

Active Camouflage in Battlefield 2142 used two methods, an earlier "Predator" method with a refracted outline that proved quite visible at a distance, and a later "static" effect that was more visible up close. Users were never meant to be completely invisible; limited charge, a shrill sound, and vulnerability to detecting gadgets ensured that they weren't completely undetectable by alert players. | |

The invisible stalker in Dungeons & Dragons is a being from the elemental plane of air that is frequently used by wizards as an assassin and, as the name indicates, is invisible. Its official portrait in 3e and later is a vaguely humanoid shimmer slipping up behind a potential victim, while its portrait in the [AD&D] Monstrous Manual is, amusingly, just an empty portrait frame. | |

In Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, the Stealth Boy and Chinese Stealth Armor (only in the former game) behave this way. Enemies with high enough Perception can still detect the player when sneaking in this state. However, there's nothing stopping you from noticing their cloaking either (aside from your own IRL perceptiveness), so you're free to open fire on an enemy expecting you to be unaware if you spot them first. | |

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean averts this trope and then plays it straight in regards to depicting the Stand Limp Bizkit's powers, which allows the user to summon invisible zombies. The first half of the Limp Bizkit arc shows the zombies as being completely invisible, even to the audience; Jolyne managed to See the Invisible alligator zombie about to maul her after she splashed blood on its face. The second half of the arc does away with this and depicts the zombies as translucent to the audience, but still completely invisible to the main characters. | |

All stealth units in and since Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun (completely invisible to the enemy, of course). This effect is used to make certain naval units appear submerged in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 which shares the engine of the above game. In-fact, if a land unit collects a Dummied Out bonus crate that gives them stealth ability via map editing, they still make submerging/surfacing sounds. Stealthed units in SAGE engine games (Command & Conquer: Generals and beyond) will fade between opaque and fully transparent to their commanders and allies. |

One of the items that can be won from Time Attack mode in Shadow of the Colossus is an invisibility cloak. Only the very faintest shadow can be seen by sharp-eyed players, making playing with the cloak equipped somewhat tricky. The ability to go completely undetected by all the towering monsters definitely has its advantages, though; Combined with whistling arrows, this cloak can be used to make the colossi go wherever you want within their arenas, making many fights almost disgustingly easy. | |

Sam Casey of Gemini Man turns completely invisible, though the viewer is given clues to his presence by things such as bumping into other objects, chairs depressing from where he's sitting, objects he's holding floating, etc. This often just looks cheap, especially when the writers clearly have no idea of scale. For one example, Casey, while invisible, is holding a gun that to the viewer appears to be floating. When the henchman is staring down the barrel at it (thus a reasonable distance from Casey), he is suddenly punched in the face by Casey in spite of the gun staying perfectly still...thus somehow Casey punched a man with a six foot arm. | |

In the Phineas and Ferb episode "Don't Even Blink", objects and people hit with the Invisinator are completely invisible to the audience, except when Perry and Doofenshmirtz are hit off center and rendered only half-invisible — vertically. Some fans say this is due to the dispersal of the beam. it's highly concentrated when up close and spreads into less visible beams the farther it gets from the source. | |

In Tribes 2, the cloaking pack covers the player in a ghostly very translucent sheen. As the sheen was completely useless against semi-aware players and certain graphical exploits made it completely solid, the popular "Classic" Game Mod turned the cloaking player completely invisible, de-rendering them unless damaged. | |

In The Invisible Man (2020), only through his physical interactions and certain fluids (paint, rain, extinguisher smoke) the title character can be noticed. However, the "distortion" approach also appears when the main character sees the Invisibility Cloak being created, and when after being hit in a fight, the cloak glitches at certain points. | |

The 2000 series — the camera would usually cut to Fawkes' POV to show what he was doing. Somewhat lampshaded in one episode, where Darian has to spook out a superstitious generic South American dictator by pretending to be a ghost. His narration actually says that people aren't afraid of what they don't see, so if he's going to freak this guy out, he'll need to see something. Cue Darian letting the quicksilver drop from his eyes, to show human eyes looking out of nothing. Effectively creepy. | |

In the episode "Mad Dogs and Aliens" of Kim Possible, Kim gets a stealth upgrade for her battle suit, which uses the distortion effect. However, it should be pointed out that when she actually sneaks into Drakken's lair she's completely invisible until she makes her appearance behind Doctor Drakken. It's zig-zagged between completely invisible and a distortion, depending on what's going on. Of course, its stealth ability is only shown in one episode. | |

Toru Hagakure in My Hero Academia is absolutely invisible, but her clothes aren't. Her hero "costume" thus includes pretty much just gloves and shoes. A common fan theory is that she's also wearing a leotard made at least partially from her own hair, making it invisible as well. | |

Die Sendung mit der Maus: In a cartoon clip, the mouse rummages around in a cellar and knocks over a big barrel of turpentine, which washes away her orange color and makes her see-through. (Luckily, she finds an orange airbrush to repair the damage, a literal interpretation of Painting the Medium. Not the trope, of course.) | |

The Pokémon Kecleon can turn invisible, but the red zigzag stripe around its body can be seen. However, it's implied that the red stripe left behind is nearly or totally invisible anyway, as none of the characters in the anime manage to spot it in an episode that featured Kecleon, even when it was around things that would make said stripe stand out, although the anime doesn't use the games' rules for the most part. | |

Infiltrators in Planetside 2. New infiltrators, thinking their cloak makes them invisible, are easy kills for players who know to look for the distortion. Worse, uncloaking makes a distinctive sound, so players quickly learn to look behind them after hearing it. Experienced infiltrators use the cloak within its limitations - for invisibility only at a distance, when crouched and still, and to make a moving target very hard to track. | |

Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy has some high-ranking stormtroopers use this. The hilarious part is that they're usually still painfully visible, and the fact that they won't move or attack while cloaked means they'll just stand there and wait for you to impale them with a lightsaber. Same with the Shadow Troopers in Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, but not as easy to impale them with the saber if it wasn't for the fact they were wielding one themselves. | |

When Danny and other ghosts from Danny Phantom are invisible, they are either inked with a blackline with an airbrushed glow effect and filled in with slight white (their eyes are drawn normally even when they're invisible to make it easier for the viewer to spot them); slightly transparent; or invisible to everyone and the viewers. Though averted with villains occasionally. They will be completely invisible to the audience if we aren't supposed to see them.

In Team Fortress 2, the cloaked Spy is visible as a distortion to his own team, but completely invisible (unless he's shot/bumped into) to the other team. Unless he's using the Cloak and Dagger. That works normally when charged or when standing still. If the charge runs out and he moves, the same visibility effect happens as when he is shot. Also, the Dead Ringer. If you have it activated before you get shot, you will don a perfect cloak (no flicker effect even if you are bumped into or shot again). The cost? The perfect cloak only lasts about 6 seconds and has a very loud and obvious "decloak" sound effect. |

Unlike in, say, Metal Gear Solid, this means that enemies who are at close range or have already been alerted to the player's presence will, in fact, be able to see (and shoot) you. Likewise, it is possible to see cloaked enemies as well, if you look carefully. | |

This effect is used to make certain naval units appear submerged in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 which shares the engine of the above game. In-fact, if a land unit collects a Dummied Out bonus crate that gives them stealth ability via map editing, they still make submerging/surfacing sounds. | |

In Prince of Persia: Warrior Within, there are "invisible" enemies that distort the image of whatever is behind them, and this distortion gets stronger at the edges, almost giving them an outline. Imagine a human-shaped glass figurine and you're pretty close. Only, light doesn't reflect off these guys, making them way harder to spot than glass. | |

The Soul Series has various examples of this trope: Hwang's ultimate weapon in Soul Edge/Soul Blade, the Phantom, appears as just a sword handle with a completely invisible blade to the naked eye...until he swings it where the weapon effects become visible. Using the Invisible ability in Soulcalibur IV renders your character invisible, even to you the player- all you can see is the effects when swinging a weapon. Of course, this is because it's usable in Special Versus, too, and human players aren't so easy to fool as the AI. |

Used to great effect in Rise of the Guardians. When the audience is introduced to Jack Frost, he's alone and looks perfectly normal (well, completely visible, anyway, with no indication he's supposed to be otherwise). So when he wanders into a town full of people, the audience is just as shocked as he is to learn nobody can see, hear, or touch him. | |

Shizuka in Translucent uses several of the tricks. The story focuses on how Shizuka has contracted "Translucent Syndrome", a nonfatal, noncontagious disease that turns her mostly translucent on a monthly cycle. In the manga, this is shown via either sketching in the background lines behind her, showing her without any shading at all (or as a very pale gray), or showing her without any lines at all (merely using shading). People who get more serious versions of the disease can end up with "Fully Transparent Syndrome", which is traditional invisible stuff — which in the manga is shown by the "completely invisible, even to the audience" subtrope, with the exception that extreme positive emotions can cause a faint screentone outline to appear. The one character who has FTS in the series wears a hat, gloves and glasses to show people where her head and arms are. | |

Amazon Women on the Moon had a sketch that parodied the trope: Ed Begley Jr. as the "Invisible Man", so he says he is, who is perfectly visible to everyone around him; they just play along with his antics. To make it more "authentic", Begley rips off all his clothes in order to carry out his pranks (sticking darts in the dartboard, stealing beer, etc). He's genuinely surprised when the police finally arrest him. | |

In Sgt. Frog, Keronian technology can make it so that specific people can see you while others can't. If you can see a cloaked Keronian, you see them as translucent images. The anime adds a rainbow glow to the outermost outlines, though it can get a little inconsistent with some items only having the rainbow glow. | |

The Shadows in Babylon 5 occasionally appear this way when they're not totally invisible. | |

In City of Heroes allies who are cloaked will be invisible to the enemy but semi-transparent to you. Your character will also appear semi-transparent to indicate to you when cloaked. A few stealth powers, like Cloak of Darkness and Shadowfall, make you look more like a cloud of smoke to yourself and your allies. | |

Dexter in the Dexter's Laboratory episode "Surprise!" is shown as an outline when invisible. However, near the end, we see him from the viewpoint of a couple of kids and then he is completely invisible on-screen. | |

The invisible car in Die Another Day. There's a (rather overlong, which Bond lampshades) explanation of the spec-tech involved, and the distortion is very visible. At least when the car is moving, as presumably the cameras and computers have a hard time keeping up. When it's still, it's undetectable. | |

There's an episode of Happy Heroes where Doctor H. invents an Invisibility Cloak. Most of the time whenever any characters use it, they're still visible but transparent. | |

Super Smash Bros. series: when a character is under an invisibility affect, the area where they take up space becomes distorted as they move about. Therefore, the only way to be 100% invisible is to remain completely still, giving the status a notable weakness and strategy. | |

The puppeteers in The Muppets' arena show wear black "ninja puppeteer" outfits. While this does render them hard to see if the background and lighting are exactly right, mostly it just indicates that the audience should think of them as being invisible. | |
