Was it totally CGI or did they take footage from a concert and hologramify it? if they did the latter older artists could get tricky

Nice to see you back again, we have been awaiting your return.
I have mixed feelings about this video.

On the one hand, it's amazing that technology has come such a long way. On the other, I find it totally disrespectful.

Saw this thread and it reminded me of a pic i saw a few days ago



If Bieber died do you think they would bring him back like this? i really hope not!

*Sorry for derailing the thread*
LOL yeah I am sure he would be a hologram at every awards show the minute he was dead, who knows he may already be so he can be in more than one place at once LOL! That pic actually makes me sad ;(

Do you find the lyrics or the fact that they are kind of exhuming his body to make money he will never get? I have heard people feel angered about the latter and the former for that matter.
Yup, that's wrong.

Is a music video with him in it really that much different than the hologram performance?

A music video was made with his consent, big difference.
Its hard to tell what someone would have wanted. If it was me I don't think I would want a 3D caricature of me performing like that... Some might get a kick out of it. Who knows what Tupac would have wanted. We DON'T know so I think his memory and the way he was in life should be left alone. Things like this could change his legacy and I don't think anyone would like that done to their memory.

This reminds me of when they had Fred Astaire I think it was dancing with hoover vacuums. Think of some other gimmick that isn't so creepy.

Every time they do this it is creepy to me. Like when they put Chritopher Reeves head on a walking body... Or when they made a 3D Orvil Redenbacher. Just weird and unnecessary.
There are two wrongs about this whole thing


This is the first

Please make it stop!!!

My thoughts exactly!

The second is everyone making a big deal out of this and calling it amazing new technology - it was not new, it was not a hologram!

The 'hologram' that allowed murdered rapper Tupac Shakur to steal the show at the Coachella music festival was a mere theatre trick that has existed for over 150 years.

Snoop Dogg and Dr Dre wowed the crowd as they danced and sang alongside their fallen friend last week with what was described by the projection company responsible for the stunt, AV Concepts, as holographic technology.

However, Dr Lincoln Turner of the Monash University School of Physics reveals that Tupac actually appeared via common stage-craft known as 'Pepper's Ghost'.

This illusion involves an image being projected onto a transparent sheet, known as mylar film, using high-definition video projectors, which are reflected off mirrors below the stage. As long as the stage lighting carefully avoided the plastic film, spectators were unaware that they were watching Snoop Dogg and Dr Dre through a screen.

"Tupac had as much depth as any other 2D projection - none - and the illusion only worked because the audience was too far back to see this," said Dr Turner.

AV Concepts CEO Nick Smith admits on the company's website that the technology "is not 3D and not holographic, it gives you ... an illusion of that".
For me it is EMIN3M all the way!! \m/
