I am currently trying to create an effect for Thoroughly Modern Millie. The Set Designer has two grates built into the set that he want smoke (really fog) to come out of. We don't have the budget to do anything with dry ice (nor do I really think the low-lying/rolling is what we are looking for) and other fog (we have used G300's in the past) has set off the smoke detectors. I am using haze (Unique 2.1 unfortunately) throughout the show, however I only have 1 hazer, and there are two grates, so I don't think I can pipe it to come out of the grates. I am also using footlights in the grates, and I thought that maybe if I install fans in the grates, the movement of the haze, plus the light coming through the grate will give an effect that appears as if the particle is coming out of the grate. Am I missing a better choice? Should I try computer fans?? Box Fans?? Box Fans may be too large.
Thanks.
Thanks.
