  • After effects masking in the middle of the video

    Posted by Kees Robbert on January 21, 2014 at 9:50 pm

    Hi,

    For my video i want to use a second clip pop in the middle of the first clip in a form of a circle.

    First clip starts. After 30secs the second clip will appear in the middle (not fill the whole screen!).

    I tried to use mask path option with keyframe, but everytime i use keyframe the second clip starts to pop up in the beginning (1sec)

    Can anyone help me?

    Greetings,

    Kees

    Use a combination of the mask expansion and mask opacity tools

    Keyframe mask opacity from 0 to 100 when you want to see the video and make the Mask expansion a negative value and bring it up to 0.

    “|_ (°_0) _|”

    Sincerely,

    George
