half life looks a lot like real life

What about that hazy effect that reads like interference artifacting from an off-camera sun? Just staring at a number of shots in the slideshow are making me feel woefully out of the loop.

Edit: Already deleted from YouTube; sorry if you missed it. This was a trailer for Joss Whedon's new series, "Dollhouse," about operatives who can have their memories altered to become new people.
