hello all. been a while.
i recently shot a gunfight scene but for various reasons i could not use any practical blood or squib effects. i need to add spraying blood and also bullets hitting wooden and plaster walls. i figure on using a combination of trapcode particular and footage of plaster/wood 'explosions' shot against black then comped in and tracked using AE.
does anyone have experience shooting that kind of footage and can offer me advice or tips.
does anyone have any trapcode particular presets i can use to simulate blood (ranging in style from grindhouse splatters to anime sprays) and bullets hitting plaster and wood (basically particles exploding outward with some dust)? you'd receive credit in my short.
thanks for any help you can give me.

hi,
thanks for the suggestion. i've downloaded and purchased from detonation films already but the angles of the footage is relatively limited. also, their blood and bullet hits are shot on white, not black and for the life of me i can't get them to look right over my footage using the compositing modes in AE. i'm sure it's a simple thing and i've followed the instructions they have, but no dice. any suggestions there?
