Need to film someone as if they're crawling through an air vent for a short film. Any ideas on how to do this?

I am making a short film for my college media course. In one scene the main character crawls through a ventilation shaft like in every spy film. Does anyone know an effective way of creating this illusion and making it look real or know a place we can film this or a real, non-working vent we could use?

Find a playground with those big tubes kids can crawl thru.





Get drums, attach together?

Make the actor crawl through a man made tubular rectangle and have the camera strapped to your actors shoulders at a slight distance only focusing on his/her face. It will look effective as long as your light balance isn't too high and his/her mnovements aren't too animated

Dunno anything about it but if all else fails you can ask at a new building site if they have any big sewer pipes lying around you could use.
