Think its done to try and make it look smaller than it is, but they dont need the effects at all.
Correct, it's a cheapo fake tilt-shift effect intended to make it look smaller, but as someone with the eye for it all it does is remove any ability to get any scale because you have nothing to compare it to. For all I know this chicken is 3m tall and the porch is actually a train station dock.
It's a completely unnecessary addition. It's the same shit as speeding up video playback speed to make the video seem more impressive
