I have uploaded a video on youtube that is all of individual frames taken from Janet Jackson's performance at the Video Music Awards (VMAs).
There are many comments on this video both for and against whether this is Michael Jackson actually on the platform behind and above Janet and in front of the video screen. Some people say that the image is to big to be him, is a hologram, or a projection of video captured from the original scream video. Others believe that it is him actually performing at the VMAs.

Link to the entire video made from individual frames of the VMA broadcast:
[youtube:f3kmc12b]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxR5oAtidsw[/youtube:f3kmc12b]

1. If it is a hologram why wasn't that ever announced as being part of the VMA production?
2. Why was this "image" popping in and out so quickly throughout the entire performance and not noticed by many people when the VMAs first aired?
3.If it is a projection, how was this projected on to the platform in front of the video screen and not actually on the video screen?
3. How is it that we can see this "image" walk across the platform near the end of Janet's performance (as the platform is being lowered below the stage)?

I would just like to add, my understanding of the current technology of Holograms is that they are stationary. They can appear to move but with in one spot in space. The hologram projector can move to reproduce the hologram in a new space but the technology to create an actual continuously moving hologram (as would be required to show someone walking across a catwalk/platform) has not be fully realized yet.

"The holographic video project is developing a real-time imaging system that can render and display computer generated holograms at near-video rates. So far, we have demonstrated two prototype displays: the Mark-I and the Mark-II. The Mark-1 display is capable of rendering full color 25x25x25mm images with a 15 degree view zone at rates around 20 frames per second. The Mark-II display provides 150x75x150mm images with a 36 degree view zone at rates of around 2.5 frames per second. Our ongoing research examines methods to reduce computation time, ways to generate more realistic images, hologram compression and encoding schemes, new specialized hardware for optical modulation and computation, and new display architectures."

Maybe it isn't just an "image" after all. The following pictures are just a few frames as I captured Michael in about 125 frames that are about 3 seconds apart. It is very hard to extract each second in the time line without a better program.

Appearing on the platform in smoke, in front of the video screen and not on it!



On the platform:




Walking across the platform near the end of the performance. Notice the small white patch on his chest gets larger as he walks:

A still from a different video of the VMAs. Is that a woman's face being projected on to his chest? and if an image is being projected on to his chest, how could he also just be a projected image?



Here a couple screen shots I took from another youtube video .The quality is not as good as frames previously posted but those have been extracted and that is really time consuming. These screen shots are just before Janet dances with the Michael projected on the big screen.

oh wow!! I've never seen the actual frames, just the video as a whole...I'm shocked!! What kind of image walks onto the stage, before he can be seen?I mean, an image just appears where it's supposed to ..it doesn't wander around, to get to its place... :o

The hologram is gigantic. Michael´s size is much bigger than the dancers.

Also, to find if was Michael on real time we need to look at his face. Scream was made long ago and he had a particular look on his face.

I just watched it again (I have it recorded on VHS) After much pausing, rewinding, etc. I would have to say I have my doubts about a hologram, but I don't have many about it being the real thing.

So... I'm not crazy ?:D I've posted a thread on the other forum called" Is it really a Hollogram?" lol and the most answers were that it was just a frame from the real videoclip  of scream :D lol.. now I see this post.. I'm more convinced I wasn't going crazy and I really had something there! LOL thanks for sharing  :lol:

I really don't want to upset anyone here and maybe you can show me if I am wrong but I have watched that performance over and over and if you watch the video to scream and slow it down you will the EXACT same footage.  It just looks like it is large enough to truly be him because of the size of the screen.  Please debunk me if I am wrong because I would love to see this differently!

I close my eyes just to try and see you smile one more time
Its been so long now all I do is cry
Cant we find some love to take this away
Cause the pain gets stronger every day
Cant you see I dont wanna walk away

I have to admit this is a bit weird.  I hadn't seen this before.

I don't understand the image of Michael on the platform.  If this is not him, how can his image be projected onto the platform like that? Also where is that image, and the image of him walking across the platform from?

Sorry, I really cannot understand how this could be done!
