I've got a few questions regarding effects and am hoping someone out there with experience of them can help me out. I've checked the net and looked up techniques, but to have advice from some of you guys would be great too.....
Blood - what's the best recipie for fake blood? I tried one I found on the net and it was terrible. Also, I'd like to splatter it a bit on someone's face at the point of a wound being inflicted. What would be the best way to do that?
Eyes - I need to make someone's eyes completely black. No white, no cornea, no iris, just black. Any idea how I could accomplish this in post? I had thought of rotoscoping but that could be pretty lengthy. Or would I save time and hassle by getting lenses or something?
Compositing - I need to have an actor approach a version of himself sitting on a bench. A lot of this can be done with angles and cuts, but I'll be needing shots with 2 versions of the same person in frame, interacting with each other. What's the best way?
Many thanks in advance for any help/advice you guys can give.
