know alot of people like the idea of smoking in their films to make them look better, one problem, no cigarrettes. With experimentation, I have constructed a cheape cigarrette that won't even effect the actors (unless they want to enhale the smoke! but i wouldnt recommend it)

1. Obtain some white, or colored plastic straws.
2. Cut a piece (how ever big you'd like).
3. Wrap paper around the piece (if there not white).
4. Stuff the cigarrett with any slow burning matirial, paper is the best.
5. Light up the one end

-Notes-

-These usually burn quick.
-DO NOT enhale, they will give off a reasonable amount of smoke.
-If the burn gets to close to the actors mouth, have a bucket of water handy to drop it in.
-The plastic will burn, and most likely smell bad.

Alternativly you can actually get diy cigarette tubes that you can put your own tobacco in (No i am not talking about roll ups.) They look like the real thing and have the orange filter. You need the machine to put the tobacco in, but if you buy a box of the empty tubes and carefully stuff them with paper or whatever then you get the same effect

of if your a smoker you can just save time and effort and spark up. You may slowly grow cancer, but you wont get a chance of inhaling toxic plastic fumes
