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.
Those are shotgun microphones often extended past the person. So it's not what you think.
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.
