The microphones are shotgun mics. They're meant to be under a person and held on a boom. They are meant to extend past a person, not held to the person's face. What you're seeing is shotgun mics held at his knee level. These types of mics are meant to get past loud noises.
The top of his head is not missing. It's overexposed due to overcast.
Those are shotgun microphones often extended past the person. So it's not what you think.
Describe for us dummies please:
Why do the microphones look to be a fake overlay on top of original video?
And also, why does the top of his head look missing at the end? Overblown whites contrast or...?
