Instead of memorizing vasts amount of text modern people memorize the plots of vast amounts of books, moves, TV shows, and video games and pop culture.
If you just watch the show you can see the Volume screens pretty clearly. The transition from the real set floor to the floor in the screen is usually pretty obvious.
Wow. This sucks. Look at how they gloat about how much they change the way they shoot to suit the technology. These kinds of technologies that box film makers in are surely contributing to the boring same-y-ness of modern film and tv.
The transition between the real set and the virtual set is usually very obvious. LED volumes really should be completely replaced in post and used mainly for accurate lighting and actor reference.
Every producer in the industry is looking to cut costs wherever they can (at least here in Europe).
They’ll happily settle for “looks good enough for viewers who are distracted by their phones anyway” if it means the post budget item goes away completely.
Computers are much better at remembering text.
