    Has anyone here seen the movie remake Dawn of the Dead? I want to know how they did that effect were the text was up on the screen and then it kind of smeared all over like real liquid blood. You know what I’m talking about? There must be a way to achieve that effect in After Effects.

    I guess this?

    I can’t say for sure. They probably computer animated it, but I’d also try to physically shoot something. Like, make a stencil of the title, paint it with ink on a plastic sheet, and then hit it with compressed air? Of course, then you’d super-impose that version of the title onto a purer original version, (because you won’t be able to get clean edges with wet ink on plastic) and erase the original version bit by bit to transfer it to the ink splatter version.

    But yeah, I’m speculating. I haven’t actually tried that.
