Such tiny samples warm up to room temperature very quickly, on the order of a few seconds. In my experience, it's not possible to make such small pieces of YBCO superconductor levitate, they warm up too fast.
No frost on the sample either. The only way I can think of to fake this in camera is to make the "sample" out of a strong magnet, and make the "magnet" a hollow shell concealing a chilled piece of YBCO!
You would be surprised what can be achieved with bit of nylon string and an appropriate camera setup. If this is a most groundbreaking discovery, why waste all that screen resolution on the backdrop?
