  • Making a tearing effect appear in a layer revealing text below in AE CS6

    Posted by Michael West on December 26, 2013 at 2:48 pm

    Good morning:
    I would like some advice on how to make a tear appear in the middle of a comp, like a knife slash or whip gash.
    I am making an intro for a play about slavery and the image in my head is that the tear materializes with the title text revealed as the tear opens.
    It will be accompanied by a whip sound.
    Please don’t think me too odd.
    The play is titled “Whipping Man”.
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Michael
