  Rotating mask/Circel reveal

  Posted by Timo Veld on November 15, 2012 at 3:26 pm

  Hi all.
  I’m currently animating a clock. As the dial makes it complete round, I want the circle to fill up with a color.

  Basically I’m looking for a kind of pie chart reveal effect. Nothing fancy, I just need a solid color circle with the size of my clock to be revealed clockwise.

  Does anyone know how to achieve this effect?

  Kind regards.

  Look under Effects > Transitions > Clock Wipe.

  Hi Ridley, I believe it’s the Radial Wipe that you’re alluding to.

  Cool,

  I’ve tried several ways animating a Pie chart. In my case clock wipe used as a mask layer for an adjustmentlayer worked best.
  In this way you can reveal a different color on an animated circle, whithout having to duplicate the circle and it’s keyframes.
