I found an old interview with Michael Keaton in the Comics Alliance:

And I was surprised that he spoke of a scene that did not reach the final cutwhere Batman went into a trance:
I had never heard anything about this deleted scene. Do any of you know anything?

And I was surprised that he spoke of a scene that did not reach the final cutwhere Batman went into a trance:
QuoteI went to Tim and said that we should see if we could do a scene that showed the transition and Tim was really great about these things so we tried. I wanted to see and to show that transition when he goes from Bruce Wayne to Batman, the time when he's about to don the suit and go out and wreak some havoc. That's not a casual thing, obviously, it's not putting on a jacket to go out for the evening. So what is that transition like? So there was a thing we did early on that showed him going into a sort of trance and it justified this shift in him. So we did that scene and it never made it into the film but I think helped me in a way. It was part of the way he became this other thing and even if you didn't see it, it was part of the character and the way we created him.
