OKAAAAAY
So i skimmed through the actual concert and have things to say:
People are dunking on it waaaaay more then it deserve.
Actual performances are FUCKING GOOD! They can sing, they don't resort to any obvious autotune. Dances - whatever, i don't care about that part.
Musicians don't get enough screen time for my tastes, but whatever.
Camera work is quite solid.
Editing is more choppy than i'd like, but whatever.
Some models are lower resolution than others (have some shame, i see huge fucking pixels!) but this is still lesser issue.
All actual problems that make it look so horrible come from lighting!
They have complicated, and frankly excessive, lightshow, but then they grabbed some average-ish color and flooded models with it. And even this slopjob is NOT FUCKING SYNCED!!! They had whole year to sufficiently reproduce lightshow in whatever software they use for rendering, and they did NOTHING!
Not cleaning up motion data, which resulted in long neck and some minor jitter in group shots, looks like absolute nothingburger compared to lighting.
Looks like there will be many graduations indeed, but they don't fold the branch quite yet.

Everyone should apply
