Masking in After Effects
Hi all,
been using After Effects for awhile but still exploring it’s more various advanced features.Does anyone know how to create smoooooth masking?
I have a flat vector trace of an ornate vine that I want to animate so that it appears to be growing… but no matter how carefully I place nodes it still reveals rather chunkily – and the unmasking progression is obvious.Any secrets to make things reveal/unmask in a seamless manner?
thanks,
Phil. -

This isn;t really about masking, but it may address what your trying to do. It’s a video tutorial by Jayse Hansen:
