It's a bit frustrating that the footage is first shot, then denoised in post, then renoised in post, then denoised in encoding and then renoised at decoding.





You worry too much, it's all fake. What you think is the "footage" will be many layers from various sources composited together.

Fake lights, fake shadows, fake sky, ...
