For our final shot we wanted to include some kind of gore as well as infer to the viewers that Tiffany had killed Brittney (rather than blatantly display it through a scene of brutal violence). Although none of us has had prior experience with fake blood, we need that we wanted to use it in order to convey this idea to the audience; so decided to follow a recipe. The recipe asked for one part water and three parts corn syrup, with red and blue (or green) food coloring until the mixture reached the desired consistency and color. Many dyed hands later, after adjusting the fake blood mixture (and dumping our first batch) we were able to make the fake blood we had imagined.
3 parts corn syrup and 1 part water
After adding red and blue food coloring, we realized that we had added too much water.
The mixture was not viscous enough and look more like cough syrup than blood.
The second attempt (more corn syrup less water)
The scene we were able to create. p.s. it looks better in the dark
