Interestingly enough, as a vfx guy, the things that actually look greenscreened are the mics. They have green spill all over them. What I would wager is they had some junior vfx guy add the mics into the shot and he thought he’d add some “realism” by having his hand break the plane in front the the mic and did some roto work. Because the mics are definitely way too large when they get behind his hand, like way too large.
Yea but it’s not just that. The depth of field on them is all wrong. They should move into focus as they get closer to him, but they stay blurry behind his hand. Something is fucky, but he is 1000% NOT on a green screen. This coming from a 20 year vfx vet
Did you see the different angle of the video? It's clearly a muffled shotgun mix at his knee level held by a guy with a boom. The camera angle that this supposedly staged shot takes is to his right and the mix is under his elbow on the left.
Have you ever worked on a film set? The mics mufflers make them look really funny even in real life. Couple that with overcast lighting with a shitty broadcast compression and you get this.
There are instances where he is on a set, mostly the ones in the White House taking the shot. Those are all green screen and fake lighting. This is not one of them.
You can't try to believe something into existence. That's not conducive to our cause. I've worked on many film sets and all of our shots where we accidentally capture a boomed shotgun look like this.
I work in film. We see this all the time.

Shotgun mics are huge especially with the muffler on. They're about the size of stuffed animals.

They're not blurry. They're covered in mufflers that look that way.

People like you make the rest of us look like insane idiots.
