AceShowbiz - Michael Jackson had finished filming a video for so-called "Dome Project" before he died, according to Associated Press. Filming for the project reportedly was held from June 1 to 9, and its post-production is expected to be completed next month.
An unnamed source told the publication that the late singer shot the video at Culver Studios with a cemetery set similar to his "Thriller" music video being constructed for the project. Michael also had other sets built to replicate a jungle and a construction site.
In one of the scenes filmed in the construction site set, he is rumored bringing in scantily clad male dancers wearing carpenter's belts. Michael Roth, a spokesman for Michael's concert promoter AEG Live, explained to Associated Press he hadn't heard about the production but did not rule that it could be part of the company's contract with the entertainer.
In related news, Michael Jackson's last tour rehearsal at Staples Center before he passed away had been taped and possibly will be released as a CD/DVD set. "We have a live album in the can," so AEG Live's official said as quoted by The Wrap.
While waiting for the live album to arrive in stores, fans can remember Michael through his works which included at least ten studio efforts and sixteen hits compilations. Most recently, his 2003 greatest hits record titled "Number Ones" raced to number 1 on U.K. Albums chart, putting aside more current albums from the likes of Kasabian, Paolo Nutini, Take That and Lady GaGa.
