Now that the holidays have passed, I am back to posting companion videos for my upcoming book, The Prop Effects Guidebook. The latest is on how to make a breakaway glass using isomalt. Isomalt has a lot of advantages over cane sugar, and it is not much more expensive.
Most of the work in this video was done by my assistant at the time, Lisa Bledsoe. We needed a breakable whiskey glass for Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, so she made a mold of a real glass and figured all of this stuff out.
I bought the isomalt from Make Your Own Molds, which also has some great tutorials to help you get started with making breakaway glass.
I will be releasing more of these companion videos as we draw closer to the book’s release. You can watch all of them on YouTube.
The Prop Effects Guidebook is available for pre-order now at most major retailers.
