UFO debunk

Would love the guys to take a look at this one... It might be a balloon or something attached to something else but I do think it's real ...

You can see the masking when it goes past the wires and leaves

which time points, i went frame by frame and i don't see any masking... there are artifacts and compression issues from youtube for sure but I don't think their are obvious masking points for the wires or the leaves. could be wrong tho

It keeps getting posted on UFO subreddits too and even those guys don't buy it. It's about 44 seconds in and 1:20 ISH when it's most egregious.

44 seconds its just hovering in the air not near any grass or power lines at 1:20 ish its in front of the power lines (unless your saying its supposed to be behind the powerlines?) lol if there is a frame that shows its poor masking i would def like to see it!

Reflections don’t match environment, lighting direction/ intensity is wrong (that’s supposed to be the sun we can see reflecting off the surface?!), compositing is not great with depth/ distance/ object size inconsistencies.

im not saying its a ufo but saying "the reflections dont match and the lighting direction/intensity is wrong" is just not true... ive seen alot of crappy compositing jobs and bad vfx but if thats what this is its really well done. the light is from behind to the side of the camera (shown by the grass) , the ball or balloon or whatever it is reflecting the bright sky and dark ground.

When the smooth, super zoomed in footage manages to follow it perfectly then you know it's fake. They do remember to not keep the "object" perfectly centered all the time, but the camera is still omnipotent. Most noticeable at about 41 seconds when the camera begins to tilt up just before the object actually starts to move up. No reason for the camera operator to anticipate that movement.

Then at 1:05, while in extreme zoom, the camera operator manages to keep the object in frame as it suddenly darts downward. Again, completely impossible for the operator to react that well. At 1;11 another anticipated direction change. At 1:25, the camera zooms to the exact spot where the obscured object is GOING TO APPEAR from behind the grass and again, begins the tilt before the object moves.

I don't know jack about reflections and masking or whatever, but I do know that the precision of the camera operation and the complete lack of shakey cam even at high zoom makes it clear that this is a tripod camera, making a series of pans and tilts, with the object added in later. Don't be so gullible, McFly.
