How to move mask paths over several keyframes all at once?
Posted by John Mayer on July 6, 2014 at 2:33 amI’m trying to pull a mask from a position, but unfortunately the other keyframes doesn’t follow and keep morphing to the original state of the next keyframe. Is there a way to make the keyframe follows my correction?

First select all pertinent mask keyframes then use free-transform to modify them in unison.

July 7, 2014 at 5:30 pmThat’s not really what I asked for. You basically did another keyframe and a newer transformation. What I meant is to move the already created keyframed mask animated tweens in the subsequent keyframes without altering the animation. I can only do it for the keyframe I have in focus, but the other keyframes don’t follow. I have to transform manually every other keyframes.

I’m not clear on what you mean. How can you move something without altering the animation?
