ProLost: The Rebel Cafe just exceeded my wildest dreams 

ProLost: The Rebel Cafe just exceeded my wildest dreams

From Prolost:

"DV Rebel GageFX just rounded out his amazing thread on how to make killer fake blood by rising to the challenge of implementing and documenting the loose instructions that I include in The Guide for a wire-pull blood squib."

Fun stuff - potentially useful for anybody still scrambling to shoot final scees for their John Woo Short done still.

A bit more on studio setup... 

I threw a few comments about capturing content via analog from living room to studio (HD-DVD and digital cable) on my AppleTV Hacker blog. In short - the analog hole is alive and well, but does imply a quality loss.

And takes a looooooong time to encode/process. Many many times realtime.
