I've got to do a shot where four standing crayola crayons quickly melt in a non-newtonian shapes then reform into four bottles. I have melty crayons, and I thought I would use the Suction force to bring them back to the bottles, I'm having problems with have the melted forms look nice/directable. The whole shot is 5 secs, so 3 of actual action. Am I mad to have taken this on?
