My next item was a baby bottle. The first video I made involved the vinegar and baking soda experiment. I was also really happy with this experiment.

After collecting a few items related to childhood, I started planning on what I was going to do with them. My first item was a rubber duck. I planned on filling a tub or sink with red coloured water and filming the duck floating atop it. I really liked how this turned out and wantedContinue reading “SIP_10 (Experiment 6)”

As part of my research, I looked into the practical effects used in the Final Destination franchise. I learnt that they used a mixture of Meat, Gelatine and Fake Blood. I decided to attempt this myself. The top video is Fake Blood and Gelatine and the bottom video is Fake Blood, Gelatine and Bacon. IContinue reading “SIP_9 (Experiment 5)”

After experimenting with the vinegar and baking soda, I started to think of videos I could include it in. My mind automatically went to one of my favourite horror movies 1408. In this scene there’s blood leaking out of cracks in the wall. I thought I could use the blood eruption experiment to create aContinue reading “SIP_5 (Experiment 2)”

The use of blood is something that comes up constantly in the horror industry: I wanted to try out an erupting effect. I started to look into home science experiments that I could combine with fake blood and used this as the start of my primary research. I used vinegar and baking soda to createContinue reading “SIP_4 (Experiment 1)”

After looking into popular horror movies, I started looking into the practical effects used in them. I made a compilation of my favourite ones: The franchise I looked into the most is Final Destination (2000 – 2011).
