The rest of the videos are video captures.
It looks like for the intro video they really rented a studio for the day.

The actual reviews appear to be 100% green screen, all the way down to the desk. For all we know the form for the desk could be a cardboard box sitting in the third bedroom of somebody's condo.

Simply brilliant! I fell for it until I got to a review where the green screen was a little too obvious.

To the site owners, bravo! This is beta and I can think of a few different directions this could go so it will be interesting to see where it does.

Would be funny if they incorporate long text reviews alongside the video ... just for egg-in-face of all the people that say it will never work because there is no text.
