Found footage is a genre of film making especially horror in which all or a substantial part of a film is presented as discovered film or video recordings often left behind by missing or dead protagonists. The events on screen are seen through the camera of one or more of the characters involved who often speaks off screen. Filming may be done by the actors themselves as they recite their lines and shaky camera work and naturalistic acting are often employed.
