Generally, sound effects are all that is needed to make the shooting seem real. The actors, of course, must act as if they had been shot. Stuntmen are used if someone has to fall off a horse or tumble down a staircase in the scene. However, if bullet holes must appear in a door or wall, for example, it is more complicated. Before the scene is filmed, small holes have to be drilled where the bullets are to hit. Tiny explosives are placed inside the holes. Then the holes are covered up. At the right moment – when an actor pulls a trigger- someone sets off the explosives. The drilled holes suddenly appear again. On film they will look exactly like bullet holes.; Air rifles(气枪） are sometimes loaded with “blood” pellets. When a pellet hits an actor, the red coloring makes him look as if he is wounded. If a bullet is supposed to go through a glass door or window, a pellet with jelly inside is used. When the jelly hits the glass, the glass looks as if it is broken. By the way, when you see actors crashing through doors or windows, they won’t be hurt at all. The “glass” is very often just a thin sheet of toffee! ; Other stunts with explosives are more dangerous. For example, dynamite is still used in war films for bombing scenes: In these scenes dynamite is placed in the ground. This is much safer of course than dropping real bombs.
