    Main point aside, that isn’t photorealism tho. Photorealism is depicting something almost identical to a real life photograph or simply what most consider realistic graphics.

      I would consider photorealism to mainly be light-based (prefix photo meaning light), but I get what you mean. I’d consider photorealism and realism to be separate. “I can see that existing” vs “I can see myself being there”

      A better example probably would’ve been claymation, or pokemon concierge.

      Edit: my definition of photorealism might be off.

        Yeah I got your point but pretty sure photo in photorealism is just photograph. Not sure if there are any term like that for realistic lighting tho.
