For my film ARB I needed a hologram butler, I've never done anything like this before so everything was new to me. To do this I have used adobe after effects for the editing, along with a green screen and lighting which was used for the filming of him. Below you can see how he has turned out.
I done this by firstly keying out Rory, leaving the shot with just him. After I then added a background of where I wanted him to be standing. However he still didn't look like a hologram, so I decided to mask over him and give him a blue shading. I then changed the opacity to 85% so the background can be seen through him. Finally I added an effect called 'noise' which adds a slight distortion to the image in order to try and achieve the best hologram look possible. On the film I have also added sound effects when he appears and disappears and also a slight humming noise while he is about, which will all hopefully add to the effect.
Overall I would say he hasn't turned out too badly, there are a few things which id like to improve if I had more time to learn how to use After effects, such as the masking and how he appears, but for my first attempt I am happy with it.
