Terminator Robot Film Scans

Now here’s an interesting item…

This quicktime movie is made from the original film scans of the Terminator robot which we shot to make a hologram for the Terminator Boxed Set in 1992. We shot one of the life sized robot models from the movie on 35 mm film using a modified Mitchell 35mm camera, and had the film scanned to tape at GW Hannaway and Associates in Boulder, Colorado. Anyways, these are the film originals, cropped and scaled for the web.


If the movie doesn’t display above, you can see the source movie here.

Holography

From 1987 through 1995, I designed many comercial holograms. These were mostly embossed foil, although a few were photopolymer, like this Terminator Boxed Set.

I had the good fortune to work with Craig Newswanger at Applied Holographics on many of these projects.

The “Alias – More than teapots” hologram was made for Siggraph 89. This was one of the first 3D rendered holograms ever made.

The work was mostly done on SGI Personal Iris PI-20 computers running Alias 2.0, which was very high tech for the time.

I have lots of these holograms, and they are pretty hard to photograph. Here are a few samples.
