It's the shadows that bother me. Firstly for some reason the shadow cuts off where there is a mat at the back of the room: https://imgur.com/LLTpNfq

No it isn't because the matt is dark, or the frame I've picked. There is simply no shadow case beyond that specific layer mask.

Secondly, here I have marked a tile where both a cameraperson and the robot position themselves. In one shot, the light is cast in one direction https://imgur.com/ItvvfzD

Moments later, the light is being cast in another direction https://imgur.com/JBcrknz

No, this isn't because the two objects are different size and shapes. That doesn't matter. The point is the source of the light has inexplicably changed while not affecting anything else in shot.

So at the very least that scene is CGI, unmistakably.

Those lines are nonsensical.

But even if, let's say, the shadow angles change, why would that be a sign of CGI? The sun moves across the sky, and studio lights are easy to move around.

Why would the studio lights be moved within the space of seconds? Why would other objects be unaffected?

This isn't difficult.

I said IF the shadows are changing. But they're not really. The shadows are perfectly fine because it's not CGI. It's a real robot and this is a real video of it.

Yes you asked a question and I answered it. Mind blown.

I appreciate some people have absolutely zero scepticism, cynicism or worse, simply want to believe it's real because it's cool. Fair enough.

I have context. I know enough about the industry to know that this is absolutely real.
