When you can tell which objects in an animated film or video game are supposed to be picked up or manipulated by a character because they "pop out" from the rest of the scene. The effect is achieved by: (a.) making the stand-out object brighter,
(b.) making it a different shade of color than similar surrounding objects, or (c.) in the case of video games, making the object shiny or pulsing with light (intentional scooby doo effect).
The original effect was an unintended side-effect of cel animation. Animators would use the same slides over and over for static backgrounds and place the animation slides over them (e.g. the same picture of a room will be used for several hundred frames because the room never moves, but the characters have to be redrawn each frame with new slides).
The inconsistency of color and brightness between the new painted slides and the original background slide causes the animated object to stand out from the background. The Scooby Doo cartoon was a particularly noteworthy example of this effect in practice.

Almost every time the singer Frank Ocean has made a cover of someone elses song, most people will prefer his version of the song rather than the original version.
Person 1: Hey, have you heard of this great song? It's called "Strawberry Swing" by Frank Ocean.
Person 2: Dude, do you not know that song is a cover? Coldplay made the original song. You should listen to it.
Person 1: *listens to original* Yeeeeeah no Frank's version is a billion times better.
Person 2: bruh
Person 1: Yeah the Frank Ocean effect has had a heavy toll on my view of music

Since Jessie J released her smash hit “Bang Bang” in 2014 featuring Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande the three superstars have performed the song almost over 60 times due to its popularity.
The “Bang Bang Effect” is when you are made to do something because you are good at it even though you may not like it.

Balance that occurs when an act occurs or is executed (whether intentional or not) and then the same thing/person (living or dead) does the opposite of the original act/action. Which causes an average between the two acts - balance.

Girl: That's the Willack/Ballson Effect, nice.
