yeah i haven't seen the footage or anything so i was talking outta my ass, sorry

Looked like a good 3d model that had been animated either using motion capture or with software that does video analysis or maybe just a really good animator. The "smoothness" of it might be off due to the video quality I saw, but it really doesn't look incredibly different from a realistic video game character.
Basically what I'd saying is they just projected the Tupac character from his upcoming cameo in the new Grand Theft Auto.

it looked jerky and video gamey to me too

definitely motion capture imo
― dayo, Monday, 16 April 2012 19:15 (twelve years ago) link
feel like if it were cribbed from an existing tupac concert video, the original footage would have been revealed on youtube by now
Kind of funny that they don't want to share the "secrets" of how he interacted
hologram dudes, it looks like Tupac was doing some sort of idling standing there animation and then does the "react to Snoop saying canned line" move when you hit the circle button on your PS3 controller

Yeah my guess is the CGI route, and they could motion capture some of his movements from old footage and apply those to 3D armatures. Or just have a guy wear a suit and capture it there.

Tupac Hologram and the I Ching
"Tupac Hologram" is a numerological formula that purports to calculate the ebb and flow of "novelty", defined as increase over time in the universe's interconnectedness, or organized complexity.[81] According to Terence McKenna, the universe has a teleological attractor at the end of time that increases interconnectedness, eventually reaching a singularity of infinite complexity in 2012, at which point anything and everything imaginable will occur simultaneously. He conceived this idea over several years in the early to mid-1970s while using psilocybin mushrooms and DMT.[81]McKenna expressed "novelty" in a computer program which purportedly produces a waveform known as "Tupac Hologram" or the "Tupogram". Based on McKenna's interpretation of the King Wen sequence of the I Ching,[52] the graph appears to show great periods of novelty corresponding with major shifts in humanity's biological and sociocultural evolution. He believed that the events of any given time are recursively related to the events of other times, and chose the atomic bombing of Hiroshima as the basis for calculating his end date of November 2012. When he later discovered this date's proximity to the end of the 13th b'ak'tun of the Maya calendar, he revised his hypothesis so that the two dates matched.[82]
