# HOLLY: A computer's gotta do what a computer's gotta do. Let battle commence.
QUEEG: Pawn to King Four.
HOLLY: Horsie to King Bish Three.
RIMMER: It's called a "knight," actually, Holly...
QUEEG: Knight to King Bishop three.
HOLLY: Queen to Rook Eight. Checkmate.
QUEEG: That's an illegal move.
HOLLY: Oh, sorry. Queens don't move like that. I was thinking of poker.
CAT: If it's any help, I've been studying his tactics and there's a pattern emerging: Every time you make a move, he makes one too.

# Is it a lookalike, CG, or a composite of the 2? Old footage turned into a hologram somehow?
It is rather good.

# I doubt it's holographic
just a projection on a screen which is why there is no level of transparency and why Snoop at no point tries to walk around or through the projection.

But I do think it's a 3D face remap on an actor's body or a full 3D model of Tupac - actually it might just be a a standard 2D projection from a previously recorded show.

They used the face remap technology of Oliver Reed after he died during the filming of Gladiator I think this is more current and better software doing the same thing.

# Yeah - face remap is probably it.
His movement and trouser cloth looks too good for CG

# Yes I'd agree even with 3D renders thesedays which are great but they still look like just that, 3D renders.
So I'd go with face projection/remapping.
