I don't know what you expect from this...I can't see how you would get 
anything like a hologram this way.

You could make the hologram as an actual shape and just make it 
shadowless, and maybe fool around with the diffuse and transparency. (a 
hologram is transparent, it only adds to what is behind it)
Emitting media is probably the most accurate way, though...or at least 
the most like a real-world hologram. Unless you're talking about the 
silvery white-light things.
