Yes, these "Drunk Backdrop Distortions" (let's call them "DBD's") are a fairly frequent feature of the more recent psyop imagery. As it is, I have observed many such 'tipsy backdrops' (in various suspect psyop / and NASA-related imagery) but never really elaborated / or even brought up the subject, because such "DBD moments" are often quite subtle / if not imperceptible - so it's tough to illustrate them in compelling manner. In this case, however, we have a pretty clear / noticeable example of this 'phenomenon' :Huge_Diaper wrote: Can anyone tell me what's going on the the background here? To me, it looks like it was windy that day and their green screen wasn't secured properly. Why else would Carlos and the interviewer be unaffected but the background stretches and shrinks?
The backdrop behind Carlos Arredondo is clearly undergoing heavy distortion - yet Carlos himself appears unaffected by the same. The first questions we have to get out of the way is: "is this a well-known effect of camera movement? Could this be some sort of optical effect/distortion induced by any particular/special lens we know of?" The answer to these questions is, decisively : no.
Instead, what we see here suggests that the backdrop reacts to 'camera movement' differently than the foreground does. This should be, in itself, sufficient to determine that we are looking at some digitally composed imagery - as opposed to real, unadulterated video footage. We may only speculate as to what exactly causes this glitch (unless we get special clearance to access Hollywool / Military film-animation hubs), but a fair guess would be that the algorithms regulating the camera movement (foreground relative to background) are imperfectly calibrated. In simple words, it's just a dumb, digital software bug.
I dread to think that we, on this forum, may possibly be inadvertently providing useful tips (free-of-charge) for the psyop-image-software-developers to improve their products...
