also make a head splatter affect like in doomsday
To make the dummy more alive someone could hold the dummy and then slowly lower it out of the shot after the decapitation to make it seem that the corpse is falling to the ground.
i just noticed that you wrote when he needs to lop off a head
Could you guys make something for throat slitting? Because the barber chair was helpful, but i want to have blood spurt out of the neck
if you were making a horror/action film and your actor was to shoot a head and make it blow up or splat, with brains and blood all over the place. Like the profesonials how would you do that.
In the video preview Drowning Pool Is Playing "Let The Bodies Hit The Floor"! There best song
VERY COOL! Can't wait to try!
awsome
u hardly c the head comeing of off well its not ur best

that was kind a long test film, rambo a superb film though
My birthday was on January 25th and Rambo is probably my favourite movie series of all time, so how perfect is that?! My only birthday wish was to see Rambo and I saw it. And it was INCREDIBLE! I loved it.
Good job on the video, too, guys.
Nice you never cease to amaze me. =)
Amazed again, awesome episode, I can't wait to try it out.
Very nice. I guess that was the last episode of survival wilderness thing...
anyway.
You guys are awesome. Sponsored by f***ing rambo...
can't wait to see it...
But yeah, the effect looked good. Keep up the good work.
eric beck and rambo rule
Rambo!!!!
for people who need a chest slit,
use your test dummy and open it up,
go take the fake heart from this episode. http://www.indymogul.com/backyard-fx/episode/BFX_20071126
and then pour in the older recepie of fake blood, now make some fake skin out of foam and liquid latex!
Yah! I requested that!
sweet XD look my video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZi8CBMveWA
is the indy mogul stunt dumy!!! thanks backyard fx :P
Hah, I love how you built up the character at the end in a way that makes ya just think, "wow... I cant wait untill this guy gets decapitated!"
Finally now i know the easy way to make a gore head choping scene and i was wondering when will you make a gore open cutting chest effect on your next episode?
P.S. You can check out my classic feature film with the old man cutting a real pig at http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=E05769E2E1D1DAB8
wicked yeaaahhhh
Great job! I loved it guys! Another goretastic episode! ;D
my cohort and i figured we could rig it with red food colored diet coke and mentos since we didnt make the pump
this. is. awesomeness.
Man, that sever was nice but alittle too shaky i, think i didnt get a clear view of decapitation, like i saw it but it was too quick, but other than that, i loved it, sorry im kinda in a critic-ish mood. ILY INDY MOGUL
that was cool
This testfilm hast got to be the most awesome ever!
Although admittedly it's veeery shaky at the end.
Not a fan of the laugh track on the test film, but good episode nonetheless. Can't wait for the Sundance coverage!
Holy Butt cheeks man that was realy good
wowza wowza wowza!
I love it! Now I just need some styrofoam heads.
Cool... very good effect, and one of the best test films ever..
though i liked stunt dummy, ninja 1, and cloning effect better...
So AWESOME!!
Super Spatter effect- Remove Balloon. If you just put enough blood in the tank to fill the line up to about an inch from the end- or the end- then close valve. Leave a cup or two of blood in the cannister and pump it as full of air as possible- then when you hit the release the blood will have a high pressured spatter/spurt effect rather than fountain- then just reload and shoot another take to edit together later. And if you can get a sheet of plexi glass, or clear plastic to hold in front of the camera- get in close so you can have blood running down the screen.
HOLY CRAP THAT WAS AWESOME!
good job guys!
..have you never seen an action movie. There is no such thing as TOO much slow mo.
^ Not really
Anyway awesome episode. Cool effect too.
^Slow-mo is WAY overused. Anyway, I thought this week was awesome. Much better than I was expecting. These test films are always so funny. Keep it up guys.
I would've liked to have seen a slow-mo of the head chop in the test film... It went too fast.
Nice, we did something similar way back in the day, but the balloon is a new touch, and pleasingly clever :). But the way it was shot didn't really show off the effect. So, 30 points for the build, -5 points for use of shakycam.
wow funniest test video i've ever seen
DUDE that was awesome!
lol i loved the test film
Very well done!
I've been waiting for this for so long!!
SIXTH!!!
