How to Build Dynamite Bomb Movie Props
Male: Hey Zach! Guys, we’re supposed to do your effects, is anyone
here. It’s already on. So, back to here on your effects, it’s all about
your effects. This first effect is a time bomb by Jason McCullough.
Roll it.
Jason McCullough.: This week, we’re paying much to the action movie and what good
action movie doesn’t have a bomb in it? Explosions, they’re
always good. And what better type of bomb than the time bomb?
School glue, clothesline rope, electrical tape, speaker wire, a
kitchen timer, miscellaneous paints, two three-inch in diameter by
eight foot dowel rods, a package of crimp connectors and printer
paper.
Start up by marking your dowels at every eight inches and then cut
out about eight of them, take some tape and cover the faceplate of
your timer then paint it black. Now, wrap the paper around the
dynamite and glue the edges. Once you have all six completed,
wrap them with an electrical tape like so then attach the timer to
the front. Then attach the crimp connectors to the top of each stick.
Cut your rope into eight pieces of four different lengths then cover
them with school glue to give them rigidity. Spray paint them
silver so they look like a braided hose and then hot glue them into
the crimp connectors. Now, gather the rope ends and secure them
to the front of the bomb. Now, take your speaker wire and cut into
small pieces after doing that, paint them whatever color you
choose. Secure the ends under the timer and the box. That is a
finishing touch. I try to brush some black paint on the ropes and
there you have it one beautiful time bomb.
I hope you guys really like this weeks built. There’s a lot of fun
making it and I know that you’re going to make some great movies
with it.
Male: Wow Jason, that’s an extremely realistic looking prop. Don’t mess
around that kids. You can get in a lot of trouble if you were to
make a bomb and like live it somewhere, don’t do that. After the
break, get ready for Random Effects Montage.
Okay now, it’s time for the Random Effects Montage.
[Demonstration]
Male: The next your effects is a big daddy drill by Eric Vines. It’s from
the video game BioShock.
Eric Vines: This week, we’ll be showing you how to make one of the scariest
weapons for your next horror flick. A big daddy drill arm, oh yeah.
Masking tape, scrap 2x3, a tin lid or frisbee, dop tape, a large sheet
of paper, drill, skateboard wheel, and an eight inch concrete form
two.
First, make a cone with the sheet of paper and tape the edges
down. Next, put the cookie tin lid onto the end of the comb and hot
glue it into place. Make sure that the lid is flat. Cut off the excess
paper then take your pens and trace a line where the blade should
be. Next, take your masking tape and make the grooves of the
blade. Be patient because this is the longest part of the build. Once
done, take the skateboard wheel and hot glue and junk tape onto
the lid. Take your drill and attach it to the skateboard wheel. I use
an old pencil that I cut, push them to the top of the drill and hot
glue it onto the wheel but if you plan another way, go ahead and
try it.
Now, it spins with the motor. Now, simply attach the drill of the
2x3 making sure you don’t cover the button or the battery. Next,
cut the form tubes the appropriate length and then fit the drill into
the tube—piece of wood to make it fit securely. Add scraping and
detail paint and you’ve got one heck of an awesome drill.
Well, that’s it for this week but remember to be creative in this
field and that whatever you think is cool.
Male: Awesome effect Eric. Alright, I don’t allow Zach in your power
drills anymore, it’s a long story. If you want to see your tutorial on
