Making Blood!
One of our lessons in media was a lesson on making blood. The focus of the lesson was the make edible blood and there were loads of different flavours, such as; mint, chocolate, ketchup and coffee. We decided to make the chocolate flavoured one as we were told that it tastes the best. The ingredients we used were; water, cocoa powder, golden syrup and red food colouring, and if the mixture of blood is too runny we had to add either flower or cornflower.
Step by step this is what we did:
First- we poured warm water into a tub. warm water is better to use as the ingredients dissolve faster.
Second- we put 3-4 teaspoons of golden syrup into the water and stirred it together.
Third- we put cocoa powder into a plastic cup with a little bit of hot water, just enough to let the cocoa powder dissolve so that we could pour it into the mixture as a liquid.
Fourth- we added the food colouring, we kept adding food colouring until the mixture was the right colour.
Our mixture was too runny as we found out after we did the spit test. When I spat the blood down the shirt I was wearing (second example in the video) the blood faded fast because it was very thin, making it thinker would keep a rich colour on the shirt such as example 1 and 2 on the video.

Zombie Make-Up!

In this video, Zoe used a pale make up cream and rubbed it into my face, used black eye liner to darken my eye and used wax and flattened it to my face to make the base of the official cut. She make I line going through the way and used a syringe to put blood through the cut and for effect she left the blood running down my face. Zoe then used the syringe to put blood in my eyebrow and drip it down the side of my face to make the cut look more severe. She then made the blood look as though it was running from my nose and down my lip by putting the syringe tip below my nose and let it travel downwards.
