A dance on
The Clouds
You will feel the breeze and the photos will come out spectacular!
Is your Quinceanera day, you are announced into the reception
to a round of huge applause. Then, the DJ announces
your waltz with your dad. This dance is a magical moment,
even without special effects. However, for a truly unique
and surreal father and daughter dance, consider an effect
known as “Dancing in the Clouds.”

This effect, typically performed by your DJ entertainment, involves
the operation of a dry ice fog machine, enveloping the dance fl oor
in an abundant layer of low-lying dry ice fog. This fog will typically
be about knee high, giving the appearance that you are dancing in
the clouds.
What will you feel? You will feel a cool sensation dancing in the
ice fog. The air will be cool and easy to breathe. Again, there is
no liquid residue from using this effect. The ice fog dissipates into a
gas.
This is an incredible feature that will provide awesome photos for
your photographer to capture during your Quinceañera day.
USE A COOLER TO PLACE THE DRY ICE. MAKE A 2 INCH HOLE
IN THE COOLER. COVER IT UNTIL YOU HAVE ENOUGH FOG
INSIDE.
To make fog with dry ice is as simple as placing it in water.
The warmer temperature of the water will cause the dry ice to sublimate
vigorously and produce fog. However, just because it’s so
simple doesn’t mean there there aren’t tricks to improve the show.
To get the most out of your dry ice you should remember that the
warmer the water is, the more fog will be produced. Also, the
warmer the water is, the quicker you will use up your dry ice. Keeping
the water warm can be tricky. Because the dry ice is so very
cold it will chill warm water quickly. To overcome this you have
several options. 16 QM Fall- Winter 2019
