How To Make Break Away Glass: A Lighting Lesson

June 13, 2011 By Morgan

What a blast we had shooting and lighting break away glass. It was fun to make it, break it, and light it. In this video we will show you how to make Candy glass and then introduce you to the premier Hollywood product used on set today. We used products made by Alfonso’s Breakaway Glass, I first used this stuff out at Universal Studios back lot when we had a cowboy jump through a window pane. So far its been great stuff and comes molded as bottles, cups and just about anything you could want. We also just started using some great Kessler equipment to make this video. I have used several sliders and tested countless others but the CineSlider and Shuttle Pod are by far the best. Check out the stills and other info on our Facebook page. Links down below. Enjoy!
