if anything is worth doing, then it's worth doing frame by frame...you are looking down the barrel of many many hours of editing good luck

Coming from a "low to no budget" filmmaker, Apple sauce and food coloring makes great brains. It works better if you make the sauce yourself from real apples.

Lightly beat the apples without breaking the skin, then inject the food coloring.

Checkout "Requesting feedback on special effects clips I did" by Joe-Mamma under newbie questions.

We had a headshot in a short film we did called 'Once Upon A Mime' seen here ?url? http://www.reelfilms.co.uk/?/url?
We accomplished this using the garden sprayer/compressed air technique, which filmed from a side angle, turned out ok. Here is a step by step guide of that technique: ?url? http://www.exposure.co.uk/eejit/blood/?/url?

An older film on our site called 'Scope' has a very quick shot of someone going over the bonet of a car, this was done with a really badly constructed green screen and a bit of time in Adobe After Effects, and again it doesn't look too bad!

Hope this helps!

Hey, if you want a decent looking head shot, check out 'Shawn of the Dead'. There's a head basically exploding from a gun shot from behind. The special features has a pretty detailed explanation of how they did it, too.
