Have you ever wanted to make a hologram but didn’t have enough money? Or maybe you just didn’t know how? When I was younger, I always used to look at videos of holograms who would dance and who would be shown as tech presentations. One thing they all had in common, however, was that they were all huge and required lots of money to pull off. For example, Michael Jackson’s concert. They used holograms to put him onto the stage as he was dead and they needed a way to make him appear.

Another example would be vocaloids such as Hastune Miku. Since she wasn’t actually real they used a large hologram to cast her on the stage. When I saw this, I then searched on how to make holograms myself without having to actually buy things until one day, I came across a Youtube video explaining how to make one. With that information, I started my hologram making journey and made an adapted version of it and ultimately succeeded.

Once those steps are done just sit back and watch as the tiny hologram figures come into the box! To know if it’s functioning correctly almost nothing should be seen in the background except for your hologram character and the hologram should be in the box. I hope this D.I.Y was helpful! Thank you and have a great day!
