I'd forgotten all about this.
About 15 years ago, we were trying to stop a landfill from going in on a possible historic civil war battle site. (I say possible b/c the records of the battle were lost in a church fire, & no one really knows if it's truly where it happened.) I was asked to write a song to help with the effort, I wrote a nice one.
I came up with this idea that you could film one of those reenactment battles through a big pane of glass. Turn the glass & you see a reflection of me lip-syncing the song I wrote, almost like a double exposure kinda effect. Turn it again & it disappears. The idea was to make it seem like I was a ghost delivering the song. In places, it could be reversed, so that I was being filmed while the battle became the "ghostly figures."
I thought it was a pretty cool idea, but it never came to pass, like so many of my cool ideas...LOL...I dunno if it would even work, but it seemed like a fun thing to try.
The landfill went in in spite of us.
Try this if you think it could work.
