20th Century Fox has teamed up with Acme Archives of Burbank, California and RabbitHoles Media Inc. of Gatineau, Quebec to distribute a series of three limited edition RabbitHoles® 3D AVATAR Holograms depicting NEYTIRI WITH SPRITE.

The 1280 frame 3D image sequence in the digital holograms was created from original AVATAR assets produced by Weta Digital of Wellington, New Zealand and printed by RabbitHoles® patented pulsed laser printers. The three RabbitHoles® AVATAR editions are priced at $2600 for the 32” x 32” hologram (Edition of 10), $1400 for the16” x 16” hologram (Edition of 50), and $700 for the 8” x 8” hologram (Edition of 200).

Originally, RabbitHoles Media printed this imagery for RealD as their 3D Innovation Awards at ShoWest 2010 in Las Vegas to honor AVATAR’S James Cameron and Jon Landau and Lightstorm Entertainment. The 3D motion holograms depict AVATAR’s Neytiri, crouched in the Pandora jungle, bow drawn, as an ethereal Sprite alights on the tip of her arrow. When viewers interact with the print, they experience extreme 3D perspectives on the Sprite’s action, Neytiri’s awestruck expression, and the rich jungle environment around them.

The digital holograms come framed with lights specifically designed to properly illuminate them. The holograms are available exclusively through Acme Archives and RabbitHoles Media.

During Coca-Cola’s Final Night Ceremony at the ShoWest Conference & Exhibition, RealD’s CEO Michael Lewis presented their Innovation in 3D award to Jim Cameron and Jon Landau of Lightstorm Entertainment for AVATAR. The commissioned RabbitHoles holographic awards are the first 3-dimensional imagery ever printed of AVATAR and publicly displayed, created by Weta Digital in collaboration with RabbitHoles Media. The 3D print depicts AVATAR’s Neytiri, crouched in the Pandora jungle, bow drawn, as an ethereal Sprite alights onto the tip of her arrow. As viewers interact with the print, they experience true-3D perspectives on the Sprite’s action, Neytiri’s awestruck expression, and the rich jungle environment as it reveals around her in nearly 180-degrees. Following the ceremony, attendees flowed to the front of the room to shake hands, interact with the AVATAR holograms, and capture photos and videos of the experience (keep an eye out on YouTube!).

Several thousand people were in attendance, including studio executives from 20th Century Fox, Disney/Pixar, Warner Bros, Paramount/Dreamworks, Universal, Sony, as well as independent production houses Summit, Laika, and Legendary. Other ShoWest award winners present included actors Sam Worthington (Avatar / Clash of the Titans / Terminator Salvation), Kathryn Heigel (Knocked Up / 27 Dresses / The Ugly Truth), Amanda Seyfried (MammaMia / Dear John / Letters to Juliet) and Sarah Jessica Parker, Kristin Davis, and Cynthia Nixon of Sex and The City, as well as directors Jay Roach (Meet the Parents / Austin Powers / Borat) and Todd Phillips (The Hangover / Old School / Due Date), and producer Jerry Bruckheimer (Pirates of the Caribbean / Top Gun / The Rock). The event also hosted worldwide theatre exhibitors AMC Theatres, Regal, Cinemark, and Rave Motion Pictures among many others, as well as technology and service companies like Deluxe Digital, RealD, Dolby, IMAX, and Technicolor that cater to the movie exhibition industry, and especially to the emergence of the digital 3D movie-going experience.

The RabbitHole 3D Motion Holograms featured a 3D Coraline scene rendered from models of the characters in the acclaimed 3D stop-animation film released in Fall 2008.
