Yearly redraw number 9!!!!!
[Image ID: A digital painting of a girl resting on a ledge. She strikes a casual pose, popping a bubblegum bubble and scratching the back of her head. She's dressed in a 2010s-skater-grunge sort of style with a pair of high waisted jorts, denim vans, mismatched slouchy socks, a black tank top, and a ratty, splatter-painted overshirt that says "PUKE" in bold block letters. In the foreground beside her, a skateboard with the same splatter-paint design, and mismatched wheels matching her socks, is propped against the wall. It's covered in stickers, including some cats, a lesbian flag, and a bumper sticker that says "defund the M****rfuckers" with asterisks. The background is a placid suburban scene in watercolor style, with trees casting dappled shadows over the foreground. The sun is low in the sky, as though it were both early morning and late afternoon at the same time. Her large yellow headphones and pink gum bubble create a visual link between her and the wheels of her skateboard, as though the skateboard were a part of her. END ID]

When we say there's physical fuckery going on in the NINA massacre scene...it even shows up in the BTS pictures.
Look at the mirror. The angle is all wrong. We should be seeing the doors directly across from the mirror, but we see the ceiling instead.
It's tilted, see?
That means the mirror is fully mobile.
This just goes to support the fact that they're changing/moving the physical mirror itself. It also supports the fact that the broken mirror is a physical mirror, like we saw with this BTS shot:
Just for support's sake:
a) Cameras don't correct for green screens. That's done in post-processing
b) We can see the unbroken mirror on a similar screen in a different BTS photo.
We know, then, that the broken mirror physically exists.
That means they’re moving the mirror. They're deliberately using the mirror to fuck with us.
That means:
1. The reversing shard pattern? Intentional. The mirror was physically flipped to create this effect.
2. The inability to see through the supposed one-way mirror, which isn’t physically possible due to the imbalanced lighting between the two rooms? Intentional.
Ex 1: We ought to be able to see the Gate through this mirror shard, since the Gate is brighter than the Rainbow Room on the other side of the mirror.
Ex 2: The Rainbow Room is brighter than the observation room in this shot. We should be able to see El's feet and the table flickering in and out of view while the lights flash, but we don't.
This is a function of the mirror most likely not being one-way in real life. This is a choice. It would have been so easy to work with a literal one-way mirror in these scenes for accuracy, and the one way mirror would have functioned in accordance with its physical properties...but this mirror doesn't. They didn't use a one-way.
3. The missing gate reflection is intentional. We should be able to see it reflected directly in front of El.
Justin Mitchell (Scanline VFX Supervisor for Stranger Things) explicitly tells us that better funding and more help allowed them to do more, better VFX than before. He also makes a point in the interview to tell us that the rifts and lighting thereof was a major to-do:
It's all intentional.
Something something...This place, and the people here, are not what you think.
