This is less creepy than the Japanese cartoon one.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

No footage of him fading in or out = body double.

Shut up

Wow, when did hologram tech get this good?!?

Umm... all along? It's no different than the Sega Holosseum or Time Traveler arcades. It's 2D, pre-rendered, Mo-Cap animated movie projected up using mirrors and it only works if there is a pitch black background/foreground/floor around the projected objects. It wouldn't work with a flying camera going around it unless the render adapted for that camera's specific viewpoint and then it would break for everyone else (he would be spinning in place). Even then, that's eye-tracing and you'd need AFR for stereo (Alternate Frame Rendering for shutter glasses).

Perhaps you're simply impressed that CGI has gotten to this point, but it was very clearly CGI. Also, it could have just as easily been a live look-alike actor on a green-screen (it wasn't), so being a "hologram" is irrelevant.

Um, I'm pretty sure it's QUITE different

No. It isn't. Also, read my edit above.

People are stupid. Remember that stupid CNN "hologram" thing? Ugh.

As if it has any bearing to the viewer or has anything to do with being a hologram! It's just tracking multiple viewpoint to overlay, exactly like Star Wars pioneered in the '70s with programmable camera movements except now done in real-time with dynamic viewpoints (pointless if you can't control the perspective - same effect for the at-home viewer). Actually, the effect WOULD be better if it actually moved a camera in both studios and created the overly after a short time delay (the studio people can't see it anyway). You can clearly see it switch source cameras when the perspective jumps during slow camera movements.

No, I think this is a little different.

One more time: NO. It isn't. The audience isn't capable of drastically changing their viewpoint in relation to the image. It is the exact same effect as playing Holoseum from a fixed point (you aren't supposed to move all over with the game either).

How is this a hologram? It's just a projected video.

Exactly. People are sheep, especially if they thought Snoop saw 2pac from a different perspective.

1:15 in the camera angles changes? (From the link eits posted)

For a both moment there, it looked like two different perspectives...

It's an obvious splice.

 

[Skel]

That’s Truly Outrageous..

That is really tight as hell. Even you dislike rap.
