Great informative video. Dont know why there are any haters, I learned more about fog machines and set ups in under 15 mins here than anywhere else. Keep it up!!
Thank you for posting! I used a hose to direct fog through a suit and up to the head, where it was released. The heat melted the tube and there was little effect...now I understand why. Thank you for mentioning that there needs to be a little spacing between the machine and the tube/fog distributer. Good video and your dog is such a sweetie!
You're actually dumb this is the most informative and many of these effects ain't even on UA-cam elsewhere you fool quit tryna put people down cause you are a low life and not the man himself
Thank you sir for all the hard work that you did to show the fans something new! Much appreciated....i plan on checking out the rest of your videos.....thumbs up!
thanks for such a complete approach to fog fx! im planning to combine the fog blanket and chiller. ill use a projector pointed at the fog as it drops from the elevated fog blanket tube making it a screen. hopefully i wont need to add fans and fins to make a laminar flow screen. it gets windy so i may need to tube sideways so the fog flows with the wind instead of trying to fight nature. thanks again! your video answered most of my questions and gave me a solid foundation from which to begin! Keep up the good work! I'm curious to see the body of work created and offered by your critics. It seems that critics cant produce anything but negativity.
Love the fact that you showed several options & effects in one video . I have two small fog machines and a small porch..plenty of pvc from other projects so I'm going to try the one w/the holes and turn the holes in opposite directions. Tried the ice one year but it was too much trouble for me once the ice melted .Great time to get the machines back out the attic practice the new alternative .Thank you SOOOO much ;) for the motivation & ideas. Have a Happy Halloween & a great weekend.
Very much appreciate you doing this for all of us. Very helpful...some of these options I had never thought of, but, especially the tube...exactly look I was looking for to do photography work. Excellent! Thanks again.
The most helpful tip that's not super obvious is to leave a little space or "air gap" between your machine and the pipe so it has a chance to pull air in with it. I had been making a tight seal to the fog machine so it didn't leak but this works LOTS better!
Thank you for sharing. You explained a lot of what we can do with these effects. The blanket affect seemed more like a curtain, but it was still very cool. I did not think the pipes would change the fog output like that. I want to combine the chiller with the holed pipe to see what it can do. Thanks!
Excellent, versatile, and combinable ideas. Inexpensive too. I'm pretty confident I'll be able to create the affect I'm looking for by using the chiller + the curtain tubing to roll fog off my screened porch and into the yard without filling the porch itself.
Hi! just get the mister kool from adj, or just add a little bit of glycerin to the fluid. Look up how to make fog fluid and you can experiment with the ratios! Or just add ice.
Thanks SO much for posting this. I really want to use a fog curtain for my production of The Wizard of Oz, and this is the best example I have seen. I also appreciate the other effects as well, as I also want to direct fog underneath the Wicked Witch when she appears (along with lights etc.). Wow thanks again!!
Good video. Thanks for the cooler tip. I am going to rig up four coolers for Halloween now to flood our school commons area during their morning break. Four Hurricane's using your cooler technique and one Cumulus. Seriously, I was wondering how to maximize the fog from the Hurricanes, and you taught me a lesson. Thank you. Keep the vids coming. Fog life, baby.
Thank you for sharing. So helpful for people like me that just want to totally creep out their yard because we love Halloween. Of course I didn't have all this cool stuff when I was younger. Lol
wow this helped me a lot. I was having problems with the wind blowing it directly and the fog was just not really showing up. I def believe my problem was placed up hig and I had no control of direction.
@@The_Original_Nosferatu That's a good point, because the temperature outside fluctuates. I've used this mechanism for Halloween props, but dry ice would be the way to go because it's colder.
The fog becomes thick when chilled because the molecules compact and become denser as energy is lost in the form of heat and the molecules become less excited. This increase in density is also what keeps the fog low to the ground.
If you mount a small fan to the lid of the ice chest, blowing INTO the cooler, it will push much more low lying fog out. About 150% more. Also, it’s staying low because of the coolness of the ground. Fog from a traditional machine (with no co2 mixed in) will ALWAYS rise again. Especially in an indoor venue where the lights and people inside make the environment much warmer than your lawn in winter here.
Awesome, love the chiller used to make a dry ice effect 👍👍👍👍 I'm definitely going make one soon depending on if this stupid Corona Virus disappeares 👍👍👍👍
Were is your video of making the cooler? You opened it too fast, lol. I'd like to make this cooler you are showing. It looked like you have the input hole cut high on that side, and the output high too. Then it looked like you had some kinda shelving on the input side forcing the fog underneath the ice? Then I think you said were was grading underneath the ice? Do you have a video of the construction of this cooler?
That was very helpful especially letting us know that we need to leave a gap. You are right, I have never seen that part on a video before, they always connect so I connected it also. Question - Can you combine the cooler with the blanket effect? Have you done that before? Thank you for the video.
One of these days I'll get around to making a chiller. I want to have one set up on each side of my yard. And maybe after a few years I'll get really ambitious and make some for my neighbors at the end of the streets. Have all 4 corners and my house in the middle blasting fog to cover the whole street.
Hi , my name is Dan . I'm a DJ in Montreal . I like your ide about the ice cooler for low lying fog ... Can you send me instructions on how you modified the cooler for this effect , bot the intake and output ...Thanks
I made my own chiller for my band using a 5 gallon bucket with air tight lid . I drop a block of dry ice in it and blow the fog thru that . You get super low dense fog and no backlash leaking
Great info I put A big EDM show on every 4th of July I would like to add lasers My stage is set up above the crowd I think that perforated pipe method would work Well with the laser show Would you recommend the regular fog or the thick one
Great informative video. Dont know why there are any haters, I learned more about fog machines and set ups in under 15 mins here than anywhere else. Keep it up!!
propably movie producers for sharing the secrets for atmospheric or horor movies
Video could have been 3 minutes long..
@@moegreen4406 And you could have kept your comment to yourself and moved right the fuck on down the line.
@NikosPer It would not be producers. And we could never use any of that in the movies, for example, 1 fan cost me 14 thousand.
Came for the FOG stayed for the DOG 😃 got distracted watching him play 😁💕

Maybe not the slickest but definitely the most informative fog machine tutorial I’ve come across. Thank you
You're actually dumb this is the most informative and many of these effects ain't even on UA-cam elsewhere you fool quit tryna put people down cause you are a low life and not the man himself
Really cool video! I like effects number 3 & 4 they are really cool and the fact that the woods starts in your backyard is amazing!
Great video! Thanks for the tip on leaving an air gap between the fogger and the first connection. I would have never have thought of that.

I love your video. It sounds like you have been smoking your fog but that just makes it better. Thanks, very informative.
Great video! I work with bands that use fog effects from time to time and this is very helpful. Thanks!

Thanks for posting - super informative and super helpful. And I love your dog! Total scene stealer.
Thanks man.....I had no idea how to keep the fog down low......very cool effect!!

Your videos are awesome! Thanks so much for making these. They're super informative and really fun to watch!
Dude, you have just ROCKED my Halloween WORLD with your ice chiller effect!!!! *off to make my own* heehee
This is the best fog machine video on here. Thank you for posting!!
One of the best at home fog effect videos ive seen.
Dude, I could watch a whole video of your dog playing with that rope. Freaking adorable!
I Love how it's "Caught in the grass" ! I've had a dream where bits of grey cloud were caught in the grass, up on a hill!
Majiic !
Thank you for sharing this! This is awesome 👏
Amazing vid. Learned a ton that will help my future haunts. Thanks for the info. Awesome!!!!!
thank´s for this amazing demonstration
One question
I can't see the other side of the cooler, is there another hole?
Thanks SO much for posting this. I really want to use a fog curtain for my production of The Wizard of Oz, and this is the best example I have seen. I also appreciate the other effects as well, as I also want to direct fog underneath the Wicked Witch when she appears (along with lights etc.). Wow thanks again!!
glad it helped!
I would do the fog blanket for the which

Very cool. Great demos !
This was really helpful, thanks bro.

Your dog is just having the time of it's life.
Great job you've been a big help
Thanks! Learned so much!
Awesome video and can't wait to try all the effects.
so good, thx man sick creations
Thanks so much for this! I love the ice cooler idea. I'm going to use this for my graveyard scene for Halloween.
That's some very thoughtful fog.
heavenly, some might say.
Relaxed even...
Awesome stuff man! Much appreciated
These tips are gonna be very helpful with my photography thank you very much.
You are a fog genius.🙌
Very helpful - well done with your brief descriptions and quick demonstrations.
Thank you!
excellent vid! this will do nicely for my purposes
It's great you combined all your findings into one video :
This is so helpful!
Thanks for the great tips!
Great video. Thanks for innovative ideas!
Great tips, thanks!
wow this helped me a lot. I was having problems with the wind blowing it directly and the fog was just not really showing up. I def believe my problem was placed up hig and I had no control of direction.
I didn't understand the purpose of the ice, but you are the only guy who explained it to me. Thanks, man.
Use DRY ICE it will past longer and way better look, line your cooler with Styrofoam or your cooler will crack.
@@The_Original_Nosferatu That's a good point, because the temperature outside fluctuates. I've used this mechanism for Halloween props, but dry ice would be the way to go because it's colder.
Best damn fog video I've ever seen.
I'm a photographer - this video is really useful. Thanks!
FOR YOUR HEALTH!!!
I just got a fog machine for my photography business can't wait to use it
hmmmmm, a doctor would normally say thanks for your HEALTH not a photographer.
I'm a doctor and I've never said that in my life.
The fog becomes thick when chilled because the molecules compact and become denser as energy is lost in the form of heat and the molecules become less excited. This increase in density is also what keeps the fog low to the ground.
That is a great observation, thank for that!

Awesome sadly Halloween is bout 3 months away I'm excited so doing all of this thank you so much oh and I subscribed

lol "it's peaceful, it's not spooky." Nice one!

Great video bro! Sound like bubble bass
Cool Demo!! Good information for the uninitiated like me.
2:55 That dog is hilarious
Yes his dog stole the show.
Are you using a 1000 watt fog machine?
kick ass video....thanks for your help!!
Very great ! thanks
Great video thanks so much.
Can you do a demo between different fluids? Also, do you happen to recommend any fluids or setups for a paramotor trail?
for the fog blanket if you layer the tube with the holes on its side how would it come out? like a blanket across the ground
I love it man the whole back yard is foggy
Very Informative, but how did you build your Fog Chiller? I really loved your flow
If you take the fog blanket and the chiller then put the blanket above the doorway would the smoke fall down and cover the opening?
AWESOME NUMBER THREE IS THE BEST! I WILL BE DOING THIS ONE FOR MY CEMETERY!!!! THANKS FOR THE TIPS SO WORTH WATCHING.... HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
I just happened upon your video. OMG it is so thorough and easy to understand. Thank you so much!
I’m just chilling with my foot in a bath of vinegar and I was thinking “fog machines” and now I’m on this video
3rd is my fav too:O
this are useful part tips.. thank you :D
Very good great job
Can you cool the fog curtain and have it cascade down from above ? Indoor usage. We do want to walk thru it
Nice vid dog was cracking me up.
Hi , my name is Dan . I'm a DJ in Montreal . I like your ide about the ice cooler for low lying fog ... Can you send me instructions on how you modified the cooler for this effect , bot the intake and output ...Thanks
My dude, great video.
I made my own chiller for my band using a 5 gallon bucket with air tight lid . I drop a block of dry ice in it and blow the fog thru that . You get super low dense fog and no backlash leaking
For the fog chiller could you add dry ice to make it last longer?
yes you can combine both!
Great info I put A big EDM show on every 4th of July I would like to add lasers My stage is set up above the crowd I think that perforated pipe method would work Well with the laser show Would you recommend the regular fog or the thick one
So where is that link to the other video you're talking about with the two fog machines or what's it called
Good video - Thanks
Thanks bro that was cool stuff
Nice job !
Great ideas for our haunted house! Thanks!
Nice mate thanks a lot.
very cool thanks
What are the specifications of the fog machine used in the video?
