Making Snow

Last night I was helping a friend on a Christmas horror short. We needed snow, so we talked about spray painting cornflakes white. Then thought about buying that fake snow that you just add water to. But with a styrofoam bounce board that they had picked up at home depot (at the insulation section) we had a much better solution.

We grabbed two pieces of styrofoam and rubbed them together to make snow. I gotta say, it looked great on camera and added a lot of production value.

  • So for a bounce, a sheet of styrofoam insulation is a good alternative.
  • But it's also a good alternative for snow.
