Wow, not many guys wearing glasses, and none look like safety glasses. I wonder when that film was shot?

The same thought passed through my mind. I know a number of glassblowers and they wear elaborate safety headgear. I get the impression that the video is very recent.

That's why it's all so pricey...gotta cover insurance costs.

if you tour the Corning Glass Works, they have a couple of live glass-blowing demos, and nobody wears any kind of safety headgear there.

Can you please let me know what is the name of the song/artist that you used in your video? Thank You

It's not my video - wish it was. James Bort does not credit the musician in the video, on Vimeo or on his own website so I really don't know. If you really want this information you could email the filmmaker.
