  draw/write transition

  Posted by Tina Beth on April 15, 2009 at 3:22 pm

  I need to know how to draw/write on a alyer to reveal an underlying layer; like a transition. Have tried the write-on effect, but it doesnt really do the trick.

  Any suggestions?

  Another way would be to make a solid layer, use it as a track matte, and then animate a paint stroke drawn on the track matte layer.

  Me thinbks it’ll be much easier to draw the mask over te same layer and then use Effect>Stroke with Reveal Original Layer.
