People are sharing this ‘realtime VFX’ because it’s so satisfying and a little bit mind-blowing
A bit like Seinfeld – although, you know, not really – nothing really happens in this film and yet I could watch it again and again.

Fortunately we’re not alone because it’s been shared a whole loads of time online. Maybe this could be a new direction for superhero films.
As you can expect, people had a few questions.

If I paint my tiny room bright green, can I use this to do YouTube videos that make it look like I’m a big time player in a mansion on the beach? I’ve got a budget of like £50 for the software and a Lumix G80 camera… should be ok right?
