Hi everybody. I was wondering how you guys use clay as blood, do you add something to your clay? I like the clay Forrestfire uses, anyone knows what kinda type that is?
I don't think this belongs in software and hardware.
Oh my bad 
I don't like it when people use clay as blood in brickfilms. It looks unrealistic and messy, especially when used excessively, doesn't fit in with LEGO at all, and is completely pointless. I'd say you'd be much better off not using it.
Mod edit: Please. Please don't.
What FlyingMinifig said is true. When making a Brickfilm involving violence, I would recommend just having the minifigures fall apart.

This, definitely. Blood and guts don't fit in Brickfilms.
Messer9,
The subject of what to use as blood has come up several times, and a simple search for "blood" brought up these threads:
Blood Effect (First thread)
Blood Effect (Posted a year later or so)
Let it Bleed (The dedicated topic to blood effects.)
Is it bad to use Ketchup? (Short answer, yes.)
Or you could look up a bunch of films with blood effects and find out what each animator used. That question is generally asked in the comments, so it shouldn't''t be too hard to find the answer.
