  • A mask on trapcode particular ?

    Posted by Fred Benac on December 14, 2006 at 6:52 pm

    Hi everybody,

    I don’t think that something is impossible with trapcode plugins and After effects…
    But i can’t have a mask, on particular for example.

    The only solution that I found is to use a mask on a background copy over the layer with particular.
    But the problem’s that we can’t kept transparency.

    Is there a solution for this matter?

    Have you tried using the Track Matte Function? Just put your mask on a layer above the particular and add your mask to it and set the track matte for the particular layer.

    Good Luck,

    When you precompose your layer, make sure that you’re “moving all attributes” to the new comp.
