Thanks to all for the answers. We decided to add the breath digitally in post.

For an image film coming up we want to shoot a runner in a cold, arctic environment. CGI backgrounds inspired from the Caspar David Friedrich painting 'The Polar Sea'. The runner will be shot as bluescreen element. What is the best way to achieve visible breath in a studio environment. Any tricks? Or shoot the breath separately in a cold room in front of black and composite it in. Many thanks. Holger Seidel Cinematographer/Berlin
