Aside from the automated elections accomplished by the Comelec, two TV networks also displayed some hi-tech broadcasting over the week.
On one side, ABS-CBN employed Augmented Reality (AR) while GMA 7 claims they’re using some sort of hologram.
Let’s see some sample clips below.
Here’s the one by GMA 7:
The holographic image on the GMA 7 video looks clean and cut around the edges. This was made possible because the station used green screens (chroma key) to separate the person from the background. However, I don’t think they were able to bring the green screens out in the field so this was also done in the studio.
Here’s the one by ABS-CBN:
This one by ABS-CBN doesn’t seem to be nicely trimmed so you will see a portion of the background around the person being projected (the video over-lay is more prominent here once that cut-out footage of that truck is shown). However, this technique allowed the station to shoot out in the field (not sure though if they used multiple cameras here).
CNN did a more convincing one during the last US Elections — the render solid and cuts around the edge of the body with multiple angles; not flat and seemingly one-sided as the one we’re seeing in the videos above.
What would have been a much better method was a combination of the two — bring a collapsible tent out to the field, pull down some green screens and shoot using multiple cameras. I think this is what CNN did but it’s more expensive, needs more crew to operate and requires a lot of bandwidth.
In the end, I think it’s all about how the viewers perceived the broadcast and how it added to the viewing experience (technically speaking, these aren’t really holograms but augmented reality). So, who do you think did a better job at it?
Note: I didn’t watch any TV (except the livestream of ANC) during the whole election so I didn’t knew about this until last night when one of the TV stations called me up asking for help about featuring “hi-tech stuff”.
Update: Evening news by both GMA 7 and ABS-CBN tonight clarified some terminologies. ABS-CBN stressed they used the term “virtual presence” and alleges GMA 7 did not use the “hologram” technology the latter reported it did. GMA 7, on the other hand, somewhat back-tracked and referred to it as “holographic effect”. The station initially tested it in their studio then actually did it on the field.

tipler says:
I doubt these are holograms. Just augmented reality.
3d holograms so far are small scale AFAIK.
Ronnie says:
imo, i think it would have been more convincing if they have a real platform setup where they can project the “hologram” instead of projecting the platform with the image.
tipler says:
Wait, shouldn’t news programs not mislead people into thinking they’re using ‘holograms’?
Abe Olandres says:
@tipler – most viewers don’t know the dictionary meaning of “hologram” anyway. It’s like calling the elections “automated” when in reality it’s just “automated counting”, the voting part is still manual.
boowee says:
True. GMA misleads people by claiming they are using hologram technology. Credibility of GMA: minus 1.

jake says:
even CNN called it “hologram technology”. it probably just pertains to hologram effect, but why be damn judgmental of the terms? and doesn’t automated counting mean automated elections as well? sheesh filipinos keep doubting the capacity of fellow filipinos.
markmarcelo0210 says:
ABS-CBN gives the best news coverage. GMA remains to be a CRAP! ABS-CBN’s augmented reality is stunning. GMA’s “whatever hologram” is CRAP! Loyal ABS-CBN viewer here.
Andre Marcelo-Tanner says:
hehe the gma version almost looked like an old movie greenscreen impositions, like fake people, hehe it was funny. atleast the CNN version the camera moved.
deuts says:
Automated election should be via text/SMS just like when you vote out a housemate in PBB. LOL. Time to gather those loose sim cards…hehe
tipler says:
Why be critical of us being judgemental? Sheesh.
enjayneer of JAYtography says:
Mas pulido nga ang sa gma7 as compared to abs cbn.. ^_^
tipler says:
@yuga My only contention is that, as a news agency, accuracy is everything. If you can’t be trusted to be correct on technicalities, what can you be trusted on?
Mike says:
TV5 had the best election coverage IMHO. And I think TV5 also started the hi-tech, interactive and social media aware newsroom with their touch screens a few months ago.
Abe Olandres says:
@tipler – I agree. You have a point. In that case, all networks are guilty by calling the recent elections “automated” when it’s actually “half-automated, half-manual”.

Here’s a true Hologram:

Robert Sanchez says:
Being familiar with chroma, all I thought was that both stations were making suckers out of the viewers. I was thinking that they just decided to do this to:
1. coincide with the new technology used in voting.
2. to show that they are almost at par with what CNN did.
Despite their efforts to show it, they both failed in most techie fanbois eyes. In the end, it wasn’t how “high tech” the presentation was, it was the content that most viewers were after.
zEr0-IcE says:
Our local stations are trying their first time implementing these “high-tech” stuff on TV. Shouldn’t we all give them a pat in the back for trying?
It may be mediocre to you, but millions of less-fortunate Pinoys who watch TV, who have never seen CNN (who couldn’t afford to pay cable), might beg to differ.
Who cares if “automated” meant “automated counting”? Don’t we all understand what it meant?
Wag masyadong mayabang.
Not everything should be taken in absolutes. These people are human, incapable of perfection.
netbooksearcher says:
How about the one in the hologram?
It’s amazing if that person could also see a hologram of the one inside the studio.
Jay Angeles says:
I was overwhelmed by what have they done.

ive watched TV Patrol just now. they clarified that ABS is not using HOLOGRAM tech. instead they r using Virtual Presence. They trying to get intouch with GMA coz of the Misleading statement regarding the HOLOGRAM issue. it is indeed FAKE!
Vidar says:
The term Hologram Effect sounds misleading. Though it is indeed a visual effect that made it look like a holographic image. Still ain’t as convincing as the one they used in Star Wars decades ago.
i-Tech says:
My comment kung totoong Hologram ang sa GMA bakit naka focus lang ang camera ng GMA sa 2 Angles ung malapit sa Anchor and ung Malayo para makita ung sinasabi nilang hologram. Pero sa ABS-CBN gumagalaw ang Camera nila mula sa Anchor papalapit sa Augmented Reality… See? niloloko ng GMA-7 Ang mga tao. Bilib na sana ako eh. Tricks lang pala.
fr0stbyte says:
Ito nalang.. Ang sabi naman talaga nang ABS-CBN eh ang ginawa nila ay augmented reality.. Just like what some iPhone apps implement with images displayed on the camera, with the use of the GPS. Pero GMA’s sticking with their story.. Ang CNN nga umamin.. Ang kapal naman nang mukha nila kung sila aamin. It’s all green-screen and that’s fact. Pero sabi nga nila, ‘pag nahuli kang nagsinungaling ay huwag na ‘wag kang aamin. That’s why I don’t watch GMA.
Dan says:
GMA and ABS-CBN didn’t use a 3d live imagery, they just use only one 35 HD cam, and some 3d effects, im not amazed… at least CNN uses 3d like imagery
fr0stbyte says:
*kung ‘di sila aamin.
Dan says:
but still not amazed
princess says:
from the start, abs has confirmed na hindi hologram ang ginamit nila, btw. i like abs moe kasi kahit nakikita yung background nung reporter, napapakita rin nila na talagang working on field ang abs while green screen lang ang gma… and gma has been braging about holograms when CE lang pala yun :))
laurence says:
@zero-ice your absolutely right! that’s the right kind of thinking everyone must possess, not one-sided. two thumbs up bro! and congratulations to all the networks who gave all of their time and presence to make the first “automated election” (as far as everyone used the term) coverage a huge success.
cutemoboy says:
last MAY 10 & 11 GMA used the term HOLOGRAM… when Tech People start noticing it.. at binatikos ng lahat ng tao na hinde HOLOGRAM un kahit ipagpilitan pa nila.. THEY CHANGED the TERM kanina lang sa 24 ORAS na HOLOGRAM EFFECT nalng daw un! u people should tell the Truth! u are a news organiaztion dapat hinde ganyan.. tsk tsk.. nakakahiya.. na BEMBANG tuloy kayo ng BATIKOS!
kannuchi says:
Grabe! Dahil sa wrong technology or term masisira na ang tingin sa isang network? Isn’t the news coverage is more important than looking at these angles?
Before judging, look at how well they have delivered the news to people, and how relevant they are. But it is good to see how the two networks used advanced-tech methods to cope with the dynamic technology.
kannuchi says:
Mejo naguluhan lang ako sa virtual presence ng ABS, kase kung nakikita ang mga tao sa background ng newscaster sa AR nila, hindi kaya mas maigi kung TV na lang ginamit nila para ipakita, since both aims for hologram effect?
In this case, GMA showed well how hologram should look like by showing human structure in the studio.
ABS’s Augmented Reality should’ve been better in showing the landscape or actual location, or map.
rye says:
i agree with iTech coz i also saw the said angle shots. clean cut nga ung sa GMA pero halatang sa isang studio lang unlike sa ABS na nung nagreport yung isang field reporter, makikita mong may mga insects pang lumilipad sa image nung reporter. meaning talagang nasa field sya diba?
rene says:
GMA lied to the viewers and to the public at large

Parehas lang naman na graphic effect ang ginamit. Terminology lang pinagaawayan pa. Mas maayos yung sa gma kasi meron chroma pero kaya rin nilang gawin yung sa abs-cbn mas madali nga yun kasi dina gagamit ng isa pang set eedit nalang at lalabuan yung sa video. Pero notice na hindi pweding umalis sa lugar yung sa abs-cbn kasi nga edited yung part na may tao.
Abe Olandres says:
@bluewire – nope, they were just instructed by the studio director where to position and look.
Fleeb says:
Ugh, ang hirap pag may fanatic na nagcocomment. Napakasubjective.
deuts says:
Ung sa GMA, wala man lng angle na nakikita ung likod ng virtual person. Obviously, the host is looking at a total blank space. Meron lang syang imaginary friend. Para syang si John Nash.
Paltik un, paltik! Kamira-trik lng un, KAMIRATRIK!
curimaw says:
Sorry dko napansin ung sa gma. HardCore abs kc me. From the start plang kc sinasabi n nang abs na hindi “hologram” ang ginagamit bago nagbabalita ang nasa field. May part na parang tv screen lang pero may instance din na parang “multiple camera” ang ginagamit na kaya nagmumukhang 3D ung nagbabalita.
Enteng says:
to GMA News Team: STOP TRYING TO BE COOL!!!
fr0stbyte says:
Ang lagay naman kasi sa GMA eh kailangan pa pumunta sa isang green-screen studio para lang mainterview ang isang tao.. And then they misrepresent the actual location of the people they were interviewing.. Wala naman ata silang green-screen studio sa buong bansa so paano mo sasabihin na on-site nga sila? Noong sinabihan ni Mike Enriquez si Noynoy na ikaway ‘yung kamay niya para malaman na nasa site talaga siya eh natawa nalang si Noynoy.. Pilitin ba namang magsinungaling ang President-Elect-to-be. Note: To-be. Baka may magreply na naman na engot diyan.
Teknisyan says:
Since we mainly watch ABS-CBN at the heat of Election 2010, I think ABS are the first to use the hologram effect, then GMA later adapt the same technology but changed the name.
But seeing the one from ABS and GMA, image rendering of GMA is better than the one being used by ABS. If you used PHOTOShop or PaintShop, you can say that GMA guys has better knowledge in terms of layering the images or overlaying the image on top of the other (videos):)
Speaking in jargons again.. :P
wiredserver says:
Yeah, Seems like na trick tayong mga viewers into thinking na.. hologram nga talaga…BAD TRIP!!
madzman23 says:
@dan aren’t you proud that our fellow Filipinos can match-up with CNN with the technology. Stop praising those foreign a-hole, of course they should be ahead but my point is even ABS or GMA didn’t overtake what CNN’s does but they are soo close. You should be proud that Filipino did that ok.
@kannunchi of course, news networks should also be credible to tell what the truth. I thought GMA is always pertain that they have “Serbisyong Totoo” or should I say Perwisyong Totoo. They should be responsible in all what they deliver in TV or unless make an apology if you did something wrong.
Well IMHO, I think that ABS did a great job on the coverage and they not just flaunting what technology they used or how much the cost of that technology. Before the election, ABS states that they will used hi-tech to deliver the news effectively while GMA say that too WITH terms like “Malaki po ang nagastos namin sa technology n ito, talagang gumastos po kmi”. They should not say that in the first place, we dont care about that. And I watched Mike Enriques interviewing NoyNoy, “Mike: Sen. Aquino ano po ang pakiramdam na nanjn kyo sa hologram ngyon na hindi naranasan ni Obama? NoyNoy: Ah teka, prang kailangan ko munang pagaralan yang hologram n technology n yan, pra akong estatwa eh.” whahaha.. look at what NoyNoy felt. But all-in-all I gave credit to all the efforts of all TV stations for the Election Coverage.
esc says:
sasabihin ng isang station na sila ang number 1, high-tech at serbisyong totoo lamang. syempre ang isasagot naman ng ibang station, sila ang number 1, high-tech at tunay na naglilingkod. lahat ng station sasabihin talaga nila na sila ang magaling, totoo at nagseserbisyo. meron na bang cheering squad na sumigaw ng “we’re number 2 or we’re number 10”, syempre ang isisigaw mo eh “we’re number 1.” hindi naman dapat magbatuhan ng putik eh, just show what u’v got and let the people decide. ako hindi ako naka-stay sa isang channel, nililipat ko kapag di ko gusto ang palabas. Term lang pinagtatalunan pa, kahit tawagin nyo pang chroma key, virtual presence, hologram effect, fake hologram, ala-hologram (not 3D), imaging technique, ala-star wars, computerized reporter, wireless newscaster, magic alatsutsu, dayadaya-mata-tech, holographic tech, blue-or-green shadowing, etc, the point is wala talaga sa harapan mo ang isang tao kundi nasa ibang lugar pero sa pamamagitan ng technology eh PARANG nasa harapan mo lang. kung sa bagay, kung wala nga naman competition eh hindi nila pagbubutihin pareho ang kanilang serbisyo. kahit hindi i-explain ng channel 2 or 7 eh halata naman na isa lamang effects yun. sa tingin ko tinawag lang nilang “bago” yun kasi ngayon lang nila ginawa sa reporting, pero dami na kayang telepantasya, movie at TV series ang gumawa ng ganun. kaya isa itong bagong-luma o lumang-bago.
anh says:
Nakakatulong din ang mga ratings kasi kapag may mga competition eh mas nag-i-improve ang mga stations. Mudslinging o batuhan ng putik, natural na yan sa pulitika, pati na rin sa tv networks. Naalala ko yung dating company na pinapasukan ko, sabi nya “ako lang ang may ganitong benefits na binibigay sa tao, ako ang number 1 sa lahat ng industrial companies sa philippines, etc.”, pero sa isip ko “ang dami kaya sir na mas maganda pang kumpanya”. hehe! Ganyan sa mga rivals, sasabihin ng team A “we’re number one, we’re number one!” Sasagot naman ang team B “Liar, liar, pants on fire!” hehe! Basta walang pikunan kasi para walang away. Kung sabi ng isa na sila lang ang may technology na ganun eh ang sagot lang dun eh “hindi kaya, kaya din namin yan, ang tech namin ay mas maganda”, in that way maganda ang batuhan ng sagot. Kasi kung sasabihan mo pa ng “nandadaya kayo, mga sinungaling” eh magkakasamaan lang ng loob. Opinion ko lang naman yun. Kahit mababa pa ang rating ng isang channel pero nandun yung panunuorin kong palabas eh dun ako manunuod, wala akong pakialam kung sino ang number 1. Tawagin man nilang hologram, hologram effect, or virtual presence, para sa akin eh isa lamang itong camera tricks.
sonny says:
Nakakalungkot sabihin eh, sa network issue pa lang nakikita mo ng di nagkakaisa ang mga Pinoy. ABS-CBN felt nataasan sila ng GMA7 because of the hologram thing, this should not be the case, every Filipino should be happy with the success of others.
I hope everybody sees na dito pa lang, na kung sino pa ang nag-po-promote ng pagkakaisa is the one who never really does it.
Augmented Video or Hologram so what, what is important is the viewers got the information right with the Elections. Damn crab mentality
Efren Sy says:
Hay simple lang po ang sagot dyan, yung company na nag supply ng technology and hardware software for both abs-cbn at gma ang kumita ng malaki
halata naman na parehong pareho and design at effects
bravo to the company that is making so much money for this
signing both networks to the same stuff
this is brilliant!
for sure Millions and kinikita nito from both networks maybe billions pa
so tama na yan. ang mas hightech yung nagbenta
next up Mike Enriquez nose will have a belo make over!
Onynz says:
Parehas naman silang visual effects, ang kaibahan lang nyan is, yung sa ABS nasa site talaga yung tao na kausap while yung sa GMA ay nasa kabilang studio lang.
Zaxx says:
kelangan ba talaga perpekto sa terminology? uso nman ngayon yung mga misleading na yan sating mga pinoy. sa text na nga lng eh, at maglakad ka sa kalsada, bigla na lang may tatawag sayo ng ate o kuya kahit mas matanda pa sayo. kainis talaga yang mga jejemon na yan! GMA pa rin!
constructive critic says:
hi!
first, as to the terminology, if we’re going to be really strict about it then none of the networks did their research. and the worst part is that everyone who watched them followed their lead.
second, whatever the technology used, i’d still give both a Kudos. it’s a breakthrough in the country. and considering that it’s the first time we’ve used it, there’s no point comparing it to what CNN or BBC did ‘coz they’re undoubtedly more advanced.
lastly, it all boils down to semantics. there will always be misuse of terms where English is concerned ‘coz it’s not our first language. i’m a writer by passion and it irks me to hear unconfirmed and inaccurate information. but let’s face it. we might as well translate all “techie” jargons to Filipino so that we’ll be able to better, and more accurately, use them.
pabs says:
Ha ha ha, this has become a fight between GMA and ABS CBN fanatics. Can’t we just unite? You see both GMA and ABS are Filipino companies, they should also be congratulated for improvement they like to show the viewers. Remember that many Filipinos are employed by Disney to render cartoons in movies we appreciate thinking that foreigners did them. Let us not be misled by foreign brands made by Filipinos.
osting says:
Not bad for the 1st timers like GMA and ABS-CBN to implement this kind of broadcasting technology, kaming taga squatters tuwang-tuwa na kami dahil papano meron tayong gaNUN at nagawa ng mga pinoy kahit di masyadong maganda at pulido. bakit tayo ganun..pilit nating i-compare ang CNN sa GMA or ABS-CBN? alam naman nating lahat na kahit pa ipag samasama lahat ng resources ng TV stations natin di talaga kaya nila tapatan ang CNN.. may point is dapat maging masaya na tayo kung anong meron tayo at kahit papano nakaya natin. gaya ng automated election natin…kahit daming palpak at least generally OK naman kahit papano..at yung focus natin na mawala ang dagdag bawas..nagtagumpay tayo! cguro yan ang ipagmamalaki natin at nung araw ng eleksyon kahit napakainit at haba ng pilahan, tayo’y nagkakaisang bomoto for the 1st automated election in Philippine history. ang mga banyaga ba or mga Pilipinong nagbabanyagaan (kahit pinoy na pinoy ang kulay) kaya bang pumili ng ganung kainit at haba?
kannuchi says:
Whew.. Topic is who’s more hitech, not what station is preferred..
Herce says:
I think the atempt to gain buzz from these networks is lame. Calling Yuga up and trying to get internet buzz?!
Why doesn’t ABS-CBN fix their damned RSS feeds, if they want to be hi tech?! Its a joke, a half dozen articles in a feed? No ability to get feeds from individual news sections? Don’t get me started on a news website in beta for years? How can you pretend to be high tech when you haven’t even got your website working yet?
Instead of being a shill for these networks, just because they called you up and you want their money. Why not do an article on how behind and LOW TECH our news channels are compared to the region?
kannuchi says:
@Herce
Really? Then ABSCBN is just trying to be hitech then with there NON-FAKE effect.
berkano says:
If we are talking about HI-TECH, why is the post focused on the so-called “hologram effect” or virtual presence? I understand that these are the most visually striking part of the election coverages but regular readers of Yugatech should already know by now that both stations could never show a real hologram. CNN can’t even do it. My sister-in-law even lambasted GMA’s approach as Sineskwela.
Yuga please focus on the other techs used on coverage instead, such as the use of augmented reality and their implementation of large touchscreens. For starters, you can start with a comparison of ORAD and VIZRT. Observe how cameras pan through the reporters and check whether the included graphic pans with the view. Cheers!
sonny says:
Eto lang napansin ko, correct me guys if im wrong, mas maganda ang studio ng
ABS-CBN: nung time ng halalan pati yung mga arrangements nila and their election results come from the PPCRV or they ask the status from their reporter in COMELEC, yung website nila di masyado detailed yung mga votes only for National lang pakita sa main nila. Virtual presence used for interview
GMA7: has an online tabulation realtime which comes from the transmission coming from the PCOS Machines as they were part of the recepients and they also have a reporter in COMELEC and PPCRV. Website for Election is detailed, clear and user friendly with vivid presentation and you get all votes from every region of the country, National and Local in detail. Hologram effect / Hologram is used for interview, within studio or in the field.
So I guess we know now who is more Hi-tech and more better in Presenting the elections in great detail.
Abe Olandres says:
@herce & berkano – If you noticed in my entry, I mentioned I did NOT watch ABS-CBN or GMA7 at all during the entire elections so I haven’t seen all those other stuff they were showing on TV. The closest I got was an audio streaming of ANC News.
pinoypi says:
Hindi siguro pinalad ang ABS CBN maging recipient dahil biased reporting sila from the start (based on observation), mapa radyo man kasi or TV.
hereandnow says:
get over the fracking bias people!
GMA lied when Mike said that it was hologram! what the heck. Goodness Mike, fire the person who told you so!
ABS-CBN and GMA i am not impressed with your dang virtual presence. It looked like one of your gajillion telefantasy series!
manaka_junpei says:
EXCELLENT ang Hologram nang GMA news, walang edge, susulpot mula sa baba
hindi kasi perfect ang Hologram nang ABS-CBN news, may background edge ang natitira at may pala-Beam ala Star Trek
pare-parehong may secret, depende sa facility nang magkabilang network at technology na gamit nila sa paggawa nang hologram, pati yung mga celebrities ay naging beta testers sila, at naging successful ang paggamit nang hologram effect, ang kailangan na lang ay mai-perfect nila ang technology sa pag-broadcasting entertainment
Adrian says:
malamng hindi lang alam ni mike yung techie word na hologram kaya yun ang ginamit nya, siguro nakita nya sa starwars ang yung term hologram.
For me mas ok yung news ng gma7 compare sa abs2. Mas acurate yung report nila saka wala silang pinapanigan, compare sa abs2 na hindi makapag report ng mga badside lalo pag ang topic is about meralco.
JejE says:
Palagi na lang tayo nag sisiraan, hanggang dito ba naman sa yugatech.com, Bos yuga sana hinde mo lang ito na brought up na topic na halata tuloy na kapamilya kang totoo… (Lets leave it sa mga expert talaga sa video virtual presence or hologram or ano pa dyan hinde mo ito forte). In fairness malinis yung pagka project nung GMA kaya sa paningin ng mga tao mas high tech yon diba, people don’t care about the technicalities, if maganda sa paningin nila yon ang panalo, salamat na lang for educating us na hinde pala hologram yung ginawa na mga kapuso.
melany says:
GMA should tell the truth kung hologram ba gamit nila o hindi..they cant be trusted talaga..i dont like GMA eversince…i dont even know people there…they sucks

@jeje – i’m not siding with anyone. I’m just reporting lang din.
rene says:

Good thing we’re talking high tech. Much better if we can produce any popular gadget. Look at South Korea, they have gone too far they’re now the center of electronics. They can produce 3D TV and even military and passenger plane.

Even if the technology/equipment/hardware/software were supply the same company, this will still depend on how efficiently they utilize or use the new technology.
brent says:
This “holograms” are just added camera effects. I’m pretty sure the main news anchor can’t even see who they are talking to. These tv stations should stop claiming to be technologically advance when in fact, they are not. We are not stupid!

not fully automated the past election, mas maganda sana kung touch screen na din yun pagboto o pag select sa candidate na iboboto yun bang parang nasa isang booth na lang yun boboto at may machine na touch screen parang booth ng ATM machine then select na lang ng candidate sa screen tru your finger tip, yun matatawag na fully automated election.

Joshua says:
Nope its not a hologram because after the report the platform goes away! lol at dapat mababa ang opacity ng hologram dahil lights lang ang tunay na hologram
hcetaguy says:
The people would appreciate it if the two stations spent their time/money on probing/investigating the elections instead of wasting time on this unnecessary trickery.
Lame says:
Atleast GMA Cleared it. Kinorek na nila into HOLOGRAM EFFECTS, Bakit sinasabi parin ng mga tao na kelangan daw ng correction, ano pa ba dapat ikorek dun? Kung tutuusin mas maganda talaga ang sa GMA7 kasi napagtyagaan nilang Maghakot ng Green Background sa Mindanao, Visayas at Luzon, Mas Pulido ang gawa nila kesa sa ABS-CBN. Sasabihin ng ABS-CBN na Mas High Tech ang Sa kanila pero bat iinterviewhin pa nila ang Truck?
John says:
I burst out laughing when I saw these 2 networks’ pathetic attempts at holograms. ABS-CBN’s didn’t look clean at all, while GMA’s looked flat and pasted on.
The first thing that came to my mind was “gaya gaya puto maya” sa CNN. They could have at least copied it right down to the quality. If you’re not going to do it properly, don’t bother doing it at all.
The GMA pundit even had the gall to tell one of his interviewees that “Not even Obama has had this experience yet”. As if Obama is just dying to be holographically represented in a news channel.

e2 lng masasabi q.. walang karapatan n mg-claim ang GMA n sila ang no.1 dahil “sinungaling sila. they keep on saying that they’re using hologram well in fact hndi nman pala. naloka sila (GMA) that ABS used this kind of virtual presence.. umaga p lng ng MAY 10. compared s GMA who’se claiming that they are using hologram, n tanghali n nagamit at naipakita. ang tagal ng opening spiels ni mike enriquez. kesyo sila ang una s pilipinas n gumamit ng ganitong technology.. only to find out n nauna n pala ang ABS n gumamit nito early that same day. nakakahiya ang GMA.. misleading ang report. pag dating s coverage, only ABS ang nakapaghatid ng up to date, komprehensibo, detalyado, accurate, tapat at makatotohonang balita. panu ka maniniwala s balita ng GMA eh s ginamit p lng n effect s paghahatid ng balita ay “nagsinungaling n sila”. they are nothing compared to ABS. isipin nyo nlng, nk-tandem ng GMA ang malalaking kumpanya. the likes of PLDT, SMART, INQUIRER at AMA but they failed to brought us the most up to date at comprehensive n balita. bobo ang maniniwala n GMA ang mas magaling s paghahatid ng balita nung MAY 10. well, hndi nman galing ang pinag-uusapan d2. what important is kung sino ang tunay n nakapaghatd at nakapagbigay ng up to date, komprehensibo at totoong balita ng walang pagsisinungaling at pagkukunwari. bawiin man ng GMA ang sinabi nila “the damage has been done” sabi nga nila. s sususnodkc, wag umasta n magaling para hndi napapahiya.
Blu3martini says:
Nope both sides are not Holograms by the true definition of Hologram.
Nag-google ako for 3mins, weeks ago and wala pa talagang ganyan. Illusion lang yan with Multiple Displays and Multiple HD cameras.

@henry

jl says:

jl says:

JayL says:
ABS-CBN! the only TV station that can penetrate Trending Topics on Twitter :P
RaGe Einzeln says:
kala ko sa showbiz sites lang may fanboys dito rin pala -__- hehe relax lang…
Marg says:
Hindi naman true hologram imaging yung ginagawa ng mga news stations na yan.
Special effects lang. If those news networks claimed them to be real hologram images, they’re lying.
Marg says:
Una kasi, GMA claimed it’s true holography. It’s good that eventually umatras na sila sa claim na ‘to. Kasi mapapahiya lang sila sa mga mapanuring pinoy (pinoy skeptics).
Ano, iniisip nilang walang mga skeptics sa Pilipinas?
Home made 3G booster says:
Question is need ba nila na may hologram pa yung kada balita nila. Parang hindi naman yun ang tinitignan ng tao kung di yung updated na news. Kasi minsan kung ano yung binalita sa morning news hanggang gabi yun parin ang laman ng balita. Watch ABS-CBN online here dito na lang kayo watch online.
Wew.. says:
Daming fanboys d2..
