كان هناك إختلاف حقيقي بين الطريقة التي ظهرت فيها اللقطة ذاتها ,في اللحظة ذاتها, على السينما و (تلك التي عرضت فيها) على الفيديو
I know it's long, but I hope that helps clear the meaning (the way I understood it, anyway).

"the same exact" really just means "exactly the same" = "the same". The author probably just wants to emphasise that the moment/take was one and the same, not any other.
"take" and "moment" are used as synonyms here, meaning لقطة من فيلم.
I would rephrase the English sentence: "THere was a real difference between the way that precise take would appear on film and the way it would appear on video".
I also think that "film" here actually means "cinema"; otherwise it doesn't make much sense.
My modest attempt:
اختلفت هذه اللقطة اختلافا كبيرا لدى عرضها في السينما مقارنة بالفيديو
I'm sure there's a better way of putting that in Arabic.. but I can't think anymore!
