Want to create a realistic bleeding effect without a blood rig? Want to have your actor touch a sharp object and it really look as if they cut their finger in action? Well look no further as we at The Make-up Mill have found what we think is one of the coolest, yet practical blood products on the market.
You really do have to see this product in action to see how truly amazing it is, but we at The Mill will try to explain it as best we can to you.
Simply put a dash of part A on your actors skin, it is invisible when dry to the naked eye, then a dash of part B on the object the actor is meant to cut him or herself on, touch part A and part B and all of a sudden, as if by magic when the two parts meet, they activate and turn into running blood.
No way?! We here you say. Yes way we say! Not only is the effect amazing but the colour of the blood is so realistic and when it dries it has that yellowish red undertone that real fresh flowing blood has!
Don’t beleive us, try it for yourself and you’ll never look at blood effects the same again. No more cutting between takes to set or dress blood, the actor can simply activate the trickling blood fx themselves!
We at The Mill think this is a revelation for the blood world and hope that a UK stockist snaps it up soon!
