There's no way the final rendering is realtime though, right? Post production work is reduced, but not totally eliminated. But the advancements they made with that dome are amazing

From what I understand from the documentary they put out then the the background they render in real time is indeed the final picture.Of course mistakes might still need to be fixed later but the rendering is intended to be final.

No I think they literally do photograph the LED screen on the stage with the actors and that is the final composite. Just like with traditional back- and front-projection.

I guess it’s graded etc, but so is a completely natural scene.
