Shameless (2011)

Citizen Carl - S10-E7

Visible crew/equipment: Carl is walking along the reporters trying to get their attention. At the bottom of the screen is the shadow of the camera filming the shot. It moves as the scene moves. At one point there is even a boom mic shadow on the right. While this may be a member of the news crew, it's likely the boom mic for the show as the reporter has a mic of her own and the shadow follows Carl.

The Town (2010)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: I think that is actually a reflection of one of the street lights. You can see a very similar street light behind him for a split second as soon as he gets off the bus. They likely would not have used a boom mic in the scene anyway, as there are no speaking lines.
