Three of tonight's BB house promos rolled into one video (including living room ... or could it be an eviction room??):

That all comes across a bit fake. Either they've had Mel film away from the house or just painted the house green and using CSO to decorate it virtually.

The corridor feels very cheap too - like it would all fall down if you leant on one of the archways.
 
The updates to the eye and visual design doesn’t look great in my opinion, but easily goes along with the Y2K inspired look that Pinoy Big Brother is using for their 4th celebrity season.

However, I can easily imagine them colour coding the big eye for each of the shows (and colour coding in the correct colours too, unlike 9’s last season).
 
I’m probably in the minority but I’m not really seeing anything that screams we need to be concerned at the moment. While we may be seeing some obvious ITV influence let’s not forget that BB has said the production team was going over past series and taking note of what worked and what didn’t. At worst we’re getting an “adaptation” of an ITV era series and at best what we’re seeing now is the extent of the inspired elements. Let’s also not forget that ITV’s first series wasn’t terrible… What made it bad is that they haven’t really made an effort to make improvements where they should have.
 
IDK why but for as much as I think this general eye shape has overstayed its welcome within the global franchise I actually don’t mind this. Keeping the OG eye inside keeps it feeling familiar while giving the logo a modern appeal. At worst (apparently my new favourite saying 💁🏼‍♂️) it’s better than what we’ve seen from Nine, 7, AND ITV.

The OG theme song isn’t present in the three new promos, instead they’ve gone all in on Bad Guy by Billie Eilish… not even a combo of both. 😢

Unless the teasers they’re posting on social media are from weeks ago I think it’s pretty obvious Mel isn’t filming from the actual house. The unnatural blur in the background I think is a dead giveaway this is Mel on a couch in front of a green screen.

I actually think this could the actual living room. They possibly chose angles where the house looks most assembled. But who's to say.

The blur between the couch Mel is stilling on and the background is a pretty good indicator the background was added in afterwards.
 
So sorry if this has already been said but saw on TT that the Housemates are in lockdown!! Awesome news and excited to see. I got a call last week saying I didn't get chosen but congratulated me on making it so far, so I assume they called all the chosen housemates last Friday too :) Looking forward to apply for the hopeful longer run next year!

The housemates are not in lockdown yet. They’re expected to go in this weekend.

Hmm, I disagree. They’re not going to that much effort. Depth of field exists… and even if the whole house isn’t quite complete (look at where the carpet meets the concrete in the Entrance promo), they’ve obviously just used angles and FOV to capture specific areas. (I mean, you can even see what looks like a hot head camera behind Mel in the Lounge promo. They haven’t added that in separately.)

I think you’re giving them a little too much credit by suggesting a green screen. 😆
