  Animating a mask

  Posted by Joshua Ferg on June 26, 2006 at 1:56 pm

  I did a search and found similar issues – but nothing soecific, so I’m turning to the boards in the hope of fnding a real solution.

  Lets say you have an image of a vine, very curly, with other vines shooting off from this main vine.

  What’s the best way to animate this so it appears to be growing/appering from it’s base to it’s farthest point and the smaller vines growing appearing off the main vine?

  I’m ready to kick my rig.

  Best,
  Josh

  Take a look at Jayse Hansen’s “Growing Vines” tutorial

  Growing Design Elements in AE. While it uses vector art, it would work on other footage types as well using similar techniques.
