  Stock clip came with beautiful mask…

  …But I’m so lame I don’t know how to use it. Here’s the clip:

  Starting at 0:10 it includes a beautiful mask. Can someone point me to a tutorial that tells me how to use the second half of the as a mask on the first half, so I can let another layer show through behind the laptop?

  My guess:

  1. Import the first 9 seconds to V1
  2. Import the latter 9 seconds to V2
  3. Apply some mystery command to V2 to make it a mask layer…

  Thanks!

  -Add the track matte key effect to the footage.
  -Choose the video track where the matte is from the track matte key settings.
  -Set the correct composite setting for the matte. If it has alpha use matte alpha. If it’s a black and white matte then use matte luma.
