Well, I did the shoot. What I found, after wasting much time and syrup, is that you need an assload of red, and little bit of blue, per a little bit of syrup. Mix the coloring and syrup first, then dilute to taste. I got a really nice result, in my opinion, but it didn't make very much.

Josh, glad to hear you found a mix that worked for you. I am going to be mixing up a batch later this week for my next short project.

If you ever need a gunshot/exit wound sequence on a low budget the "Exposure" site helped me with that too on my last movie HUNTING CAMP.

Here's a pick of us testing out the setup, it worked quite well in the movie and although its only onscreen for a few frames it shocks the hell out of everyone when they see it:
