Sugar Glass

Since we would like to create an effect/ the idea of the protagonist breaking the car window, without actually damaging the car during the shoot we are planing to use editing to trick around the actual action by using suggestive sounds and shots.

We asked the media department for advice on where we we could get a large, plain peace of glass from for the purpose of filming shard fall to the ground, bellow the car window. 

They suggested us to look at sugar glass since this would be the most appropriate material to use. 

The best option we found is to make it our selfs, since it is hard to find it online in a simple form. 

This is a tutorial on how to DIY it:

Ready made items like sugar glass bottles are easily found online and we could simply smash them to get a good amount of broken glass. 

Amazon is a possible distribiuter:
