I mean hyperrealism as an artistic style, not a verb https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperrealism_(visual_arts) ) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9ZbX6T8-NA The hallmarks are very crisp highlights, vivid colors, high contrast, etc. It’s what a lot of good amateur artists do to make things look interesting a good. The average person sees it and goes “wow thats amazing” but there is something about it that they subconsciously don’t like even if they don’t realize it. Truly great cinematography has soft edges and things are not unnecessarily high contrast or crispy when they don’t need to be. Luke vs Vader: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRcUdD5nthc a very high contrasty scene but if it was done with AI youd see all sorts of weird crisp highlights everywhere and a lot of unnecessary contrast. The easiest way as an artist to make something people think is impressive is to do all the tricks that AI is doing: crisp contrast, gleaming highlights. Doing that makes images really pop and stand out. Which is great for art class you’ll get an A+++ and the teacher will recommend you enter it in student art shows, but blockbuster audiences demand more. I assume it’s probably easier to train AI to make hyper-realism vs genuine professional cinematography. submitted by /u/Doredrin
