Good evening, everyone.
Our theatre is putting on a production of Aladdin Jr, and the director wants a "Magical POOF" effect for the Genie's entrance.
However, due to the fact that we are using kids as the cast, I am hesitant to use my professional (read: Large) Flashpot.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a SIMPLE device to create a smoke-like-poof that can be hidden on SL behind set-dressing, that will create a FAST and SAFE smoke poof?
It CAN be flash-powder, if it only uses TINY bits, but I would prefer to find something that uses fog-juice, water-vapor, or something of the sort, for safety.
I can wire it to trigger remotely, so that is not an issue. We will be combining the effect with lights, so it doesn't have to be HUGE.
Oh, and I have to find this device, purchase it, have it tested, and then installed before Oct 30.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
