To make fake blood using corn syrup and dye, I begin by pouring corn syrup into a dish. Next, I gradually add red dye, swirling as I go, until I achieve the desired shade of red. To create an even hue, combine the materials thoroughly. If I want a darker color, I might add a bit of blue or black dye. Once I achieve the desired consistency and color, my homemade fake blood is ready for use in costumes or special effects. I put it into the fridge until the filiming came. I plan to seperate the batch into two on filiming day and put one in the fride temporarly to get thicker.  Though this is a half-way thought, so who know's if I'll get my desired effect.

Making fake blood was a messy process; the syrup and dye combination splattered everywhere as I swirled it. Despite the mess, the end outcome was worthwhile because of the realistic effect it produced. Disregarding the expansion of my laundry basket.

The Walmart tripod was easy to set up. I carefully opened it from the package, making sure that all of the parts were present. Then I extended the legs to the desired height and adjusted the middle column accordingly. Once the tripod was firm, I carefully attached my camera and adjusted the angle to catch the ideal shot. I had to tell my parents abnd sister to not touch the thing. Since this was the first time i used such a device, I struggled for a simple task. Embrassingly.

I waited patiently for the home to be free so that I could film uninterrupted. As I waited in apprehension I reviewed my script and prepared my equipment. Finally, when the home was quiet, I used the chance to begin filming, assuring an ideal and uninterrupted recording session.
