Fiction Adaption (Initial Idea 14)

   I have just purchased some props for my film off of ebay. I have purchases a pint of fake blood, fake blood capsules and a retractable knife (a knife that goes in on itself to create the illusion of someone getting stabbed). These props are vital to my film as if I used a real knife for the stabbings, or the stabbing motions, it would be very unsafe and would be a risk to the cast and crew filming on the day. There will be a real knife in the shot but it will not be a part of any stabbing motions, but after post production editing it will hopefully give off the illusion a real knife was used. And I have purchase fake blood and fake blood capsules because I feel it is the simplest and easiest way to create a realistic effect of blood. Other possibilities would be using after effects, but as I am still learning how to use it it would not be the best option to go with. Also with the use of after effect it may come across fake or false, more than what the fake blood I have purchased would be.
