Is there any way that you could put in a special formula into the fog fluid so that way if you shot, perhaps, a UV Cannon onto it then it would have a nice UV tint to it. I think this would be great to use fog as an actual effect instead of another effect's enhancer. Maybe if you mixed several colors to it then it would have the look of the swirling Oil projectors, only in 3D.

put some WOOLITE in a machine one day and see what happenes.......lol


I wouldnt want to breath it, plua if you think about it you really cant put something in the air that is uv active.
the reason is on most intelligent lights with discharge lamps there is some air holes or vents on the fistures themselves without a uv filter. so in other words uv's are shot allover the place but a cant see them.

I remember helping my buddy do a camera install at a strip club one day. so My job was to sit and watch the moniters to tell him when the camera is focused. well in the moniter the room was lit up like day time, but when I walked in the room myself it was pitch black. I was like "who turned off the lights?"
my buddy then pointed to all of the intelligents that were on (but in black out of course) and he said the little lite from the back of the lights are giving uv off, to the naked eye it was nothing, but to the camera it lit up the room.

so if you would add something to the fog that was uv active then it would just blind the whole room and no one will be able to see in front of them cause the room would be covered with the fog and the uv off the intell's that we dont see would light all the fog up.


so in other words it would never happen.
any more ideas?
I would have to disagree. Adding 'color' to fog would not blind the whole room, simply for the reason that the fog never completely saturates a room, especially when we talk gigs, because the rooms are too big, and no lighting guy who knows what he is doing would need that much fog in order to get the desired effect. I think that a non-toxic additive could be produced and mixed with the fog to give the fog a slight tint of UV color, but then again it might be more work than its worth, but it might not.
nomateer how much you use fog does travel thru out the whole room. even if we dont see it, its still in the air.


but I was talking about something that is active with uv, but if you are thinking about color fog, then just imagine peoples faces when they see that......It will never happen
