Wow that is so cool looking. How'd you do it?

Breaking many Jack bottles + spilling large quantity of "whisky looking" liquid then editing a lot to catch all the best parts : )

Keep an eye, we are making an hard disk drive distortion for the next : )

I thought that's how but wasn't sure. Sure was worth the time and effort, can't wait to see the next one.

That's the most impressive product shot i've seen so far!

Thanks so much Julia, I'm totally fond of your work !

Fantastic work- nice how all came together

would love a bts on this. nice work.

Maybe on a future 'distortion', we didn't have much BTS for this one, sorry.

Incredible execution on your part and the part of the retoucher. Great work Simon.

Like it very much!
I know how much patience and self-motivation is needed to achieve such result.

Nice one Simon, did you rig the bottle elements together and shoot the fluid in place - or comp the entire thing together separately?

Hi Paul,
Sorry for the delay, I was really busy @ studio.
I shot every element separately, just thinking where the glass elements will be at last to get the right angle. The liquid was shot a couple of days later.
