#2 BTW, I saw a bit of the video. He's in a professional studio , framed by a black drape, and large professionally made posters of Osama...and the World Trade Center in flames.

#3 I saw a bit of the video. He's in a professional studio..

He's upgraded their video production department:

Al Qaeda's media production wing, Al-Sahab, had announced the al-Zawahiri tape would be ready soon in a message earlier Thursday on an Islamic Web site.

I need to look at the video a little closer, the short piece I saw almost looked like he was superemposed over the back drop. That kind of production can be done on a laptop these days with commercial software.

#4 Ok, looked at what is available of the video. It looks like he was chromakeyed in front of a "virtual set". The lighting on him was flat and he looked kind of washed out compared with the backdrop. I'd say the cameraman shot him in front of a single color backdrop, lighting him directly from the front to remove any shadows. Then by using the same techniques they use to put your TV weatherman in front of the map, placed him in a virtual set. Lot's of TV stations are doing this now for their newscasts.

The pictures and framing holding them in the al-Zawahri look too perfect compared to him. You can see an example of a set here.

No Dire? Bo-ring.
