YooStar Makes You the Star

yoostarMany of us live vicariously through the films we watch; indeed I think it’s safe to say that’s the purpose of Hollywood and the root of our fascination with celebrities. We cry, we laugh, we experience rushes of adrenaline when the good guys fall. The better the movie, the more in tune into that world it takes you, and the closer we feel to the characters.

Keeping this in mind, how much more vicariously can you live from watching a movie? By inserting yourself into it.

Yoostar is a new technology that includes all the tools consumers need to digitally insert themselves in the place of original lead actors in famous movies and television shows. Included in the system—slated to become available in July—are a studio-grade web cam with built-in dual microphones and remote control, portable green screen, professional stand, and Yoostar software that is PC- and Mac-compatible. -via

Furthermore, if you’re feeling pretty proud of your acting skills, you can upload your footage on Yoostar’s site, where it’s viewed, rated, and waged against others renditions.

Experiencing danger with no fear of consequences (either physically or legally) is a mega plus for any sort of entertainment product or venue out there. And let’s not mention there’s something to be said about watching your uncle/brother/cousin prance around as Rambo too. At least, for those of us watching it makes for quite the laughs!
