  Animating a layer position on an open mask

  Posted by Tomsmall on April 15, 2005 at 8:41 am

  i have a project in which i have the titles writing on the screen, animated over the title is a hand, chromakeyed and made to look like a sketch. if your still with me, i made an open mask tracking the tip of the pencil on the chromakeyed footage, and i have the open mask from the animated stroke on the text. is there a way to make the open mask on the chromakeyed footage follow the open mask on the text layer???
