What
better occasion than the world-exclusive
preview of clothes and furniture from
the screen's most legendary blonde, Marilyn
Monroe to take holographic projection
out of the realms of science fiction and
bring her back to life? MMID
recently took on this very challenge –
bringing science fiction technology to
one of Ireland’s most prestigious
venues, Newbridge Silverware's Museum
of style Icons in Newbridge, Co. Kildare.
Known for her TV ads for Guinness or
Pepsi, London-based Suzie Kennedy - the
world’s top Monroe lookalike
- was flown to Waterford where she was
filmed against a special backdrop. Hollywood
style lighting from the golden era was
skillfully reproduced in the studio and
the resulting footage was edited into
a loop for projection against
a patented holographic film applied to
a transparent surface.
The stunning result can be seen at the
Newbridge Silverware Museum of
Style Icons located onsite at
the Newbridge Silverware, Visitor Centre,
Newbridge, Co. Kildare. Open 7 days and
entry is free. www.newbridgesilverware.com.
