* Buzz Lightyear does this in the ''[[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]]'' ''[[Pixar Shorts|Treat]]'' "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXLNBM-iWwA Shadow Play]".

* This is done in at least one episode of ''[[Scooby Doo]]'': Shaggy and Scooby entertain themselves by making shadow puppets, and the last one is the [[Monster of the Week]].
