Wow! This really gave me fucking chills, man!
I did some research into it and I guess I have to do some more
Supposedly, they invented new holographic technology
in order to create this live event!!!
What is real what is holographically animated?
I sure don't know yet, but WOW!!!!!!
"The Michael Jackson hologram danced across the stage with other holograms and real dancers on a gold throne while singing, Slave to the Rhythm from Xscape. The performance went on for about five minutes to a stunned audience, many with smartphones in hand recording the experience.
The Billboard Music Awards team spent half of a year working on the Michael Jackson hologram, with planning, choreography and filming. The team also helped develop new technology. BBMA director and producer Larry Klein told BillBoard, We’ve been talking about it for the last five months and while we were talking about it they were still inventing the process,” adding, ”It was really strange talking about something that did not exist.”
Klein explains part of the process behind bringing hologram Michael Jackson to life again. The magic includes a special stage at the MGM Grand Arena, and incorporating trademark Jackson moves, old costumes, lasers and flames into the experience. After careful deliberation the estate and producers selected Slave to the Rhythm and a team went to work to breathe life into a Michael Jackson hologram that had to deliver not only dance moves, but also goosebumps to anyone watching.
John Branca, Jackson’s lawyer and advisor, tells BillBoard why the family chose to unveil the hologram at this show, explaining, “This is something where we wanted a live performance in front of a live audience and nothing speaks to that more than an awards show.”
