If anyone can tell me how to create a picture of a martini glass falling with water in it, or smoke in a glass, etc. I am not sure about the set up of these shoots, and how to get the pic I am looking for. Any help or videos, blogs, etc. would be great!! Thanks!

I'm thinking some dry ice in the bottom of a glass somehow? Seems like a challenge!


If you must know...

I saw elsewhere about using insense for the smoke, but how do they get the glass half fallen? Just have someone else dropping it and hoe like hell you get it?

It's probably suspended by a piece of fishing line.

Or with fishing line - it actually falls and the line keeps it from breaking on the ground - or a large pad and you really do drop it, just have to reset a bunch of times.

Glue a glass to a board mount the board so the glass is upside down. Light incense below it so it gets captured in the glass. Incense or cigar smoke works well its thick.
