Testing

For my opening I will be using fake blood on my 'dead bodies', I managed to order a small amount of fake blood which is used for Halloween online, however what I ordered is not enough for what is needed in my opening, so instead of buying some more I have decided to create some fake blood using golden syrup, water, red food colouring and some blue food colouring.

The ingredients used to make the fake blood and the blood itself

Here are some images of me practicing on how it will look in the bathroom as well as on the dead bodies.

 From my first testing of making the fake blood I realized that the colour of the blood is too light  (looks more pink then dark red) for the effect which I want, so when I create my blood for the production I will add more red food colouring to make it more darker. The fake blood which I have also created is really helpful as one of my actors is allergic to the fake blood which I purchased and the blood I have created does not cause my actor an allergic reaction.
