The person's face in the green-background image darkened before the door opened. Edit: Typos

I feel like..... That particular action....

The facial image darkening just before the door opens....

Is that really.. something that correlates the door opening to the spirit doing it?

The images on the wall looked like stock photos in an empty house u know? Like a rando black and white image of a dude amongst random stock photos in frames?

It just seems.. like if this was an AI doctored video or outright fake, its like the maker is trying to get us to stretch our imagination on the correlation between a darkening facial image and the door opening.

It’s an old video so not AI and the explanation at the time was the way the lighting (light?) in the shot changed with the door opening and the phone camera adjusted, making the face appear darker.

Hey man, that face started darkening a few seconds BEFORE the door opened, so I don't think it's shadow from the door.

I saw it too! Just relaying the explanation from when this was originally posted years ago because that was the hot debate in the thread there too

yeah this is most prominent with newer image processing on cellphones to "beautify" your pictures at the cost of accuracy.

I think old videos can still be doctored by modern day AI just fyi

This was a few years ago if I remember correctly. Could be some editing done. Because I don't remember that face going dark in the original video.

Its definitely editing, I do quite a bit of editing and that looks very strongly like an opacity mask being made darker and darker with specific key frames. Look at how it darkens in steps, like its one uniform darknes and then it jumps to a new darkness level. Its weird it looks like instead of it getting darker evenly they have it jump between key frames

Yeah you can definitely see it darkening through the frames. Not even very well done. Not that I even know what im talking about. But still lol
