Now there is a story behind this, I use to work at a bowling alley, and was working on the bumpers for the kids, and one day the line broke. When i went to get down there and fix it the air line was blowing 150 PSI of air in my face, when I reached down I cut myself on a screw that had cut the line, a deep cut too, the blood began to blow in my face and on the lane. Instead on getting up to wash the wound I stood back and had an Idea. Compressed air can Explode blood. Now this is a thing they have used for a long time. I designed myself a system after a few tyles of parts from the bumpers, and so on, but i needed a jacket for my talent to wear, and im still messing with that idea. As of now I have tubes that wrap around the talen in different areas that all hook up to the main flow jets, each wrap around has a cut off valve so you dont have to use if it if your going to do muti shots of the talent. But its just a paint because sometimes its not right on with the wardrobe, and you have to tape it to the person, sometype of vest or apperatice would work. Struggling pretty bad latetly with ideas on where to go anyone?

Thats basically what i do, but my system runs of a electic valve, and a air compressor, and i cut the holes in the shirt and run the tubes around to the holes its just some time you got the actor moving away the tubes dislodge. Im thinking of something more permanint. I've had velcro suggested to me before but i havent had to do any shooting with the blood since then. Thanks though man. I'm so glad i got this site, Im getting so much help with stuff it's crazy.
