Was the CNN hologram real?

CNN claimed they used a hologram to "bring in" someone from a different city into the studio. The result we saw on the screen was like star wars (life size) person displayed on a red dot. Was this an actual hologram - was the person visible to the interviewer in the studio?, or was the interviewer just staring at the red dot? I doubt it was a real hologram because I could see no projectors in the studio. I think it was just an elaborate video effect done live buit there was no actual hologram in te studio.

yeah, I just googled it. It's some fancy editiing but definetly not a hologram. That's bullshit. That's what we've come to expect from CNN (& other news networks) -- misleading claims.

holographic technology exists. The setup would have to be much more complicated. I think they would need a medium (gas) to project on to in the first place. ...

 

A lot of stuff exists but that doesn't mean it's plausible you see it on TV like that.

 

The sad part is that there is absolutely no need for seeing a reporting person's body. Actually, even the voice is sufficient and instead they should show the surroundings or the events taking place...

We just get the same smelly shit in a more fancy way...

 

All these idiot newscasters calling their video effects "holograms" need to be severely beaten with a big heavy optics textbooks.

 

I think the point is that the people being interviewed were not physically in the studio.

 

Agreed. just another distraction from actual news, facts, and information.

 

That point was made more than 60 years ago.

 

Rednecks, goobers, and people who'd vote Republican?

 

This is a no brainer. You don't even have to ask or do any research. Just look at the video. It is special effects. There is no actual hologram. BEP is standing in a spot with cameras. They can hear eachother speaking, and they are both standing there. then the footage is compiled to show both of them.

 

Why? It is a news program. It is television. All shows use special effects. Thats all video is special effects to create a picture. It is a video picture of a hologram. Just like I can create a computer CGI model of a table, animal, person, monster etc. It is not an actual table/animal, but in the animation, the table is there.

 

I think Nasor's point (and my point) is that if it's not a Hologram, then don't tell the audience it is. Especially if it's a news program where facts and truth are kinda important.

 

But.. it's obvious that it's not a hologram dude.

 

but...it's obvious facts and truth aren't important,dude.

 

Huh ? Don't tell me you are one of those people that put a cat in a microwave oven to dry it and then sues the company because the cat died and it didn't say in the manual that you can't put cats in there.

 

What about Palins make-up.. isn't that a disgrace ? She puts stuff on her face to look more attractive, it's not real !
