    Hey everonye!

    Im trying to get a good blood burst effect.

    A good way i thought of doing this is changing the color of the Powder Hits from action essentials. Is there a simple way that i can do this rather than having to go through every single color to change it which takes forever. Atm im using “Change color” but i it isnt really working well.

    Only just got back into after effects after a year off and have forgotten alot.

    Thanks!

    Hey,

    I would just color correct it with hue/saturation or curves. Another way of doing it is just duplicate the layer, use “fill” to pick a color and then use the blending much such as mulitply if you want it darker

    good luck

    Assuming the footage is isolated — have you tried Hue/Saturation (maybe with the Colorize option)? Or Colorama?
