Exit Wounds?

[S.E. Hardy]

Hello -
I'm pretty new to AE. I have blood elements, but I can't figure out how to make it look like there is an exit wound after all the blood has run its course. Any ideas?
Thanks guys!

One meathod is to have the Exit wound done practially, with makeup, etc.. Then ERASE it from the shot up untill the moment of impact. Of course the length of the shot building up will affact how sensible this is.

Is there an easy way to do it in post?

You could mark two trackable dots on your skin (if that's where you want it). Then do some position/scale/rotation tracking.
Paint a cool exit wound in Photoshop or something and parent it to your tracking data layer.

Edit: Oh and of course you'll have to remove the dots in post
