Buying props

As I have said in earlier posts, particularly the Shooting Script, we are going to be wearing fangs for quite a few of the shots.
As I nor Jodie and Fran already have fangs and we don't know of any joke shops or places to buy fangs from in town - I have ordered some online from Amazon and put the link to the group blog to show the others the ones that I have brought.
It's necessary that we all buy the same as we don't want to look different to one another.

I chose these fangs to buy as they had good reviews and came with 'putty' that allows you to stick them to your teeth - which is useful!

I have brought two pairs of the fangs as Max is also filming with us, and will need to wear fangs for a few of the shots.
The estimated delivery for them is early next week, which is suitable as it suites when we will be filming these shots.

The fangs I ordered arrived today, however I haven't yet tested them out as I don't want to use them until we begin filming the shots that require them.
I have also brought another prop, similar to what I used last year in AS Media, red food colouring as a substitute for blood - as a back up if we cannot create our own imitation blood.
This is how the blood appears on a surface, which looks really effective and realistic, precisely the colour intensity I was aiming for...
