As usually, Dan offered an excellent explanation of all the effects.

The production of cigarettes is always one of the most beautiful manipulation effects. I wonder why it is presented in the dark and go thru an elaborate smoke production contraction when the production of cigarettes from the air in day light is such a beautiful effect even if smoke is not produced. You can always keep one cigarette lit and disposed of the dummy cigarettes.

Have you ever considered selling the coin slider? it is a great prop but somewhat laborious to construct. Thanks

He explains in the video that he has it dark and moody with the lights and machine because it is supposed to be a bad nightmare about smoking. It really is just a personal choice but you can tell that Dan just really isn't fond of smoking. I think he used to smoke and quit? That would explain why ,no matter how good a regular version of this trick looked, he probably wouldn't want to do it with real cigarettes. plus the smoke is cool and he already kinda did the normal production thing with fries and other stuff.
