Enhanced specular reflections for inserted content

An apparatus, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory, the memory including instructions configured to cause the processor to:
• determine a first portion of a specular reflection associated with a computer-generated object based on a first contribution from an environment map component at a shading point of the computer-generated object;
• determine a second portion of the specular reflection associated with the computer-generated object based on a second contribution from a camera feed component at an intersection point of a camera feed and a reflection vector associated with the environment map component;
• and
• determine the specular reflection, at the shading point, associated with the computer-generated object based on a blending of the first and second portions of the specular reflection.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon computer executable program code which, when executed on a computer system, causes the computer system to perform a method, comprising:

• determining a first portion of a specular reflection associated with a computer-generated object based on a first contribution from an environment map component at a shading point of the computer-generated object;
• determining a second portion of the specular reflection associated with the computer-generated object based on a second contribution from a camera feed component at an intersection point of a camera feed and a reflection vector associated with the environment map component;
• and
• determining the specular reflection, at the shading point, associated with the computer-generated object based on a blending of the first and second portions of the specular reflection.
