Probably not even a studio. That looks a lot like CGI to me.

It may look like CGI but the amount of effort it takes to do good CGI vs just setting up some computers and tables is a few orders of magnitude off.

You can't just do CGI and call it a day at 90% close-enough levels. You gotta do it well or not do it at all.

Agreed, but remember this is Apple releasing a product platform that is costing hundreds of millions or billions of dollars in technical investment and marketing - they'll have put the effort in.
