A cool After Effects tutorial from James Whiffin where he shows how to blow the head off a zombie pirate by means of rotoscoping and stock footage using After Effects. Check out the How To Blow The Face Off A Zombie Pirate Using After Effects here.

Today’s tutorial will show you how to create a zombie headshot. We’ll start by first rotoscoping out the head using his makeup line as a guide. From there we’ll add some stock footage of a decapitated head to create the illusion of a hollow skull. Lastly, we’ll use blood stock footage to mask the transition to the headless result.
