Its a good start Joe. You might want to try re-tracking the footage so the movement is a little more fluent with the actor, especially when they lean back. Maybe adjusting the color of the blood a little as well.

another way to get around this is to export a frame from each title as a bitmap file and import it back into the project…placing it above the same title in the timeline to make sure it matches with the original. this can be extremely time consuming if you have a lot of titles but they come out looking nice and clean upon export.

Primatte defaults at zero spill suppression. After tweeking all settings and trying the junk matte approach my key came out about the same as keying the same footage in Keylight. Maybe Im just wasting my time with Primatte. Thanks for the help though.

Both great options. I appreciate the advise and thanks again.

I think you should go for the actual shot of the “cut and bleed”. It sounds like that is what you would really like to have. You could possibly do it using the Liquify effect described on A Kramer’s tutorial on bleeding text that someone previously mentioned. Use that with a mask, possibly some type of blur to change the depth of field (this was also covered either by Andrew Kramer or Mr. Rabinowitz). A bad “cut and bleed” fx using actual blood packs can’t look any worse than a digital one. We’ve all seen the utterly fake looking gore fx in B horror flicks. You will probably also learn quite a bit in AE going the digital route.
