This is pretty freaky stuff. I know most modern movies/TV shows are heavy on the CGI department, but I just assumed lots of green screens.
But what they are doing is creating something like a Giant Holodeck, and using Unreal engine to create the environments, and then display them on the walls, to create a giant virtual set, and the camera then records the virtual set. It isn't done in post production. The camera is actually recording what the Unreal Engine is displaying on the wall (and cieling) of their virtual set.
