I am very interested in Pre Cinema techniques particularly the effects of the Phantasmagoria, moving projections, mirrors and other reflection and light effects. The PEPPER'S GHOST effect is one of my favourites.It uses a hidden plane of angled glass to reflect a carefully lit superimposition creating the effect of a 'manifestation'.
This would work very well in the Coal Cellars, as the Ghosts start to make their appearance.
Modern Ghost trains and Theme Park rides still use the Pepper's Ghost technique.
I was wondering what my 'role' was in this process - Hey, can I be the 'imagineer' !!
