"This is easy to do with video as well. Kids can do it with a laptop and their Webcam."
This is just bullshit. Green-screening IS easy to do, but the boom-hands video is a deceptively complex composite requiring various elements to overlap and underlap at different moments. For instance, the mics are initially the foreground element, but then are layered behind the hand(s).
You're not doing that with simple cut/paste/slide software.
Dont be like that now. It is too easy. I have free software on my old Dell laptop right now that could replicate this. Layers arent hard. Compositing isnt a mystical dark art. I was doing that stuff in the 90s in college. Dont try and sound all knowing dude.
And btw, befor you hit reply, i dont care what degree you think you have or if youve been in the field for 30 years doing this stuff. Its 25+ year old tech and they are doing it like they're playing around in the AV lab at Jr. High.

Thats all there is to it.
Adjusting layer masking frame-by-frame in freeware?
"Kids" (they being the given context) are not learning that overnight.
Wow, frame by frame? In a still frame shot? What are you, a sadist or a masochist?
I dont think that is what they are doing, given the quality being put out.
I. Didnt say overnight, even though I put out my first green screen short in 2 sessions thank you very much.
There are panning shots. Whomever made the video had access to the location (or at least to preexisting video from the location).
