There would be no reason to isolate him if you wanted to make him seem closer. You would simply isolate the mics and zoom the rest of the video in. I’ve done some rotoscoping & green screen and I honestly can’t explain why his in focus hand would appear in front of a blurry microphone. If it happened live his hand would blur as it got too close to the camera. It’s weird. I didn’t believe all the empty White House conspiracy theories but I’m starting to wonder.
Yeah. It definitely looks poorly done. I re-watched some videos of Trump talking to reporters outside of White House. During the Trump videos the background noise was super loud (I assume from Marine 1), Trump had to yell his answers. Also, in the Trump videos the mics moved around a lot more in & out of frame & you could barely hear the questions. Whereas in the Biden video you can clearly hear the questions and the mics barely move. It’s odd.

I think it was an intern or low level staffer trying to impress everyone with his/her leet editing skills.
The real mystery is why any editor would approve it being released.
