Looks like the music is lip synced though, you can always tell when what they are singing matches the hit record version exactly, live versions never do. |
This explains a lot - looks like film transfered much later on digital with wideband chroma - no color smear that you would see with analog, perfect transient response, etc.
The lighting and use of multiple cameras is video style though, as stated.
Use of multiple film cameras for producing TV shows was pioneered by I Love Lucy (in black and white) - resulting in the availability of high quality syndication copies up to the present day.
