2010: A
BREAKTHROUGH IN PORTRAIT HOLOGRAPHY !

FROM VIDEO..... |
....TO HOLOGRAM ! |
Although it
has been possible for years to produce holographic portraits, the excessive costs
(several thousand Euros)
have prevented most people from having one made.
Now we offer a revolutionary new technique:
We can produce FULL COLOUR holographic portraits from a video that you can shoot yourself with a simple digital camera or even your mobile phone !
This is how it works:
1. Shoot a video of your face while you turn your head from left to right.
2. Send us your video by e-mail.
3. You will receive your portrait hologram by mail after 2-3 weeks.
Size of the hologram is 13 x 18
cm (5 x 7 inch).
There are four ways to display your portrait hologram:
1. Desk display: Use the optional LED Portrait Light Stand (as shown here)
2. Desk display: Use a 50 Watt halogen spotlight shining from the ceiling onto the desk.
3. Wall display: Use the optional Halogen Portrait Light
4. Wall display: Use a 50 Watt halogen spotlight shining from the ceiling to the wall.
You can choose to display the
hologram as it is (laminated onto hard backing) or in an aluminium frame with a
glass plate protecting the hologram.
The frame can be 13 x 18 cm (no mount) or 18 x 24 cm (with black mount).

HOW TO SHOOT YOUR VIDEO
You can use a digital photo camera with video option or a mobile phone video camera.
The video must be shot in portrait format (vertical), not landscape (horizontal).
Make a video of the subjects
face. Hold the camera as still as possible.
The only movement should be the
subjects head which must turn slowly from left to right.
Use a colourful background and clothes to fully use the possibilities of colour holography.
For production of the 3-D data
for the hologram the image will be cropped slightly at the edges (about 15 %).
Leave some space around the face, but not too much.
We can also shoot your video-portrait at our gallery (by appointment only). Costs: 15 Euro.
