Originally posted by Fiverz I still think the video doesn't look quite right (awfully bright on the right side of her face, suggesting a window to the right of her). And some of the buildings that are facing parallel to the window do not have any light on them at all.

I'd say that you might be failing to consider shadows being cast by the smoke and by other buildings. Also remember that the camera make objects in the distance appear closer than they really are. I think it's called reverse parallax error or something like that. You can see this effect in sports all the time.

I finally got to watch this video, she actually says it was like an atomic bomb going off, i think she was right.
When she is talking about wtc7 collapse its probably because it was infact aired later after the collapse, and that woman talking has been super imposed onto the scenario, it looks that way. The BBC have no shame about putting people on to fake scenarios, a bit like how they do with the weather forcast. Hell, they do it for the Queens speech and everyone knows it.
If the timing really is before the collapse and that is a real live shot then that is pretty odd! It could be a misunderstanding because they 'thought' building 7 was going to collapse because it was badly damaged.

We have already established that it was filmed BEFORE the building collapsed, due to the time stamp on the original file.
So wtc7 would have still been standing at the time of the live report anyway. Please understand this.
Green/Blue screen is now irellevant in this case.

this building is in between the towers and the correspondent, so it would have no effects from the smoke multiple blocks away (especially considering the light source appears to be from the right for other buildings and the reporter).
i see what you mean, my explanation would be that it is much lower down than the building the reporter is in and is probably having shadow cast by building off to the right of screen. The sun appears to be very low in the sky so the lower building are getting shaded more easily. If you look the buildings further back are set higher and therefore would be more likely to catch the low beams of sun which they do.
