  Mask object in after effects

  Posted by Andrew Marchand on March 29, 2012 at 5:57 pm

  Here’s what I’m trying to do:
  I have a picture of a ham that I’m making grow in a composition for a commercial. However, I want the edge of that ham to be curved behind a green peice.

  See attached image.

  What I’m wondering if there’s a way in after effects that will allow me to put a mask there that will curve the image of the ham and that will stay in place while the ham grows.

  use a solid layer with a mask above the ham, and track matte alpha that layer.
