Crack Layer in Half?

[Matt Ratcliffe]

If I was going to do a basic crack through the middle, I would split the layer at the point of the animation is needed, use the pen tool to draw a mask all around the top (or side) half with a jaggered edge through the middle – this would leave a finished half designed to your liking. Then duplicate the layer and switch the mask from Add to Subtract to invert the mask, giving u the second half. Now you can easily transform the positions of each layers up or down, side to side, or whatever.

Hope that helps!
