Sony BMG and Big Stage put 3-D avatar of you in Michael Jackson Thriller Video

Have you ever wanted to do the corpse dance with Michael Jackson in Thriller? Well now you have the chance! As part of the 25th anniversary celebrations for Michael Jackson’s seminal album, Epic/Legacy Recordings (Sony BMG) have partnered with innovative media company Big Stage to put you in the center of the action – literally replacing Michael in the Thriller video with a photo-realistic life-like 3-D avatar of you!

You can visit www.michaeljackson.com/mythrillervideo. Once there, you will find instructions on taking three pictures of yourself using a standard digital camera – these will be used to create your avatar. You will then be emailed a link to a YouTube page where your individual video will be posted. From there it can be shared via email or posted to a blog or social networking site.

Unlike experiences you may have seen in the past where a 2-D image was pasted on top of a piece of content, your avatar will actually be integrated into the staring role of the original Thriller video!
