| Musion® Eyeliner™ System
was the holographic projection technology behind the 3D animation
of the popular animated band Gorillaz, who performed 'live' at the
Grammy Awards 2006. What's even more surprising is that the Eyeliner™
System also re-created a virtual Madonna, who performed her hit
single Hung up on the same 3D stage.
Both the live and TV audiences who watched the
performance had no clue that what they were watching at least in
the first few minutes of Madonna's performance was just virtual
reality.
The Grammys performance was a variation
on the MTV Europe Music Awards in Lisbon, with the added attraction
of a virtual superstar. Yes, that's right. The Madonna you saw on
stage with Gorillaz at the Grammys was a virtual as her cartoon
counterparts. However, the rappers from De La Soul who came onstage
were, in fact, the real deal. |
