particle world & masks
I made a new solid then added CC Particle World, got it looking the way I want and made a mask that I could use to slowly reveal it and the mask is pretty much Null & Void its like its not there…this maybe a lame question but Im still fairly new with AE, Why!?

Effects area applied after masks. Your 2 options are:
1) Create a solid layer above the particles and add you mask to that layer. The use that layer as a track matte for the particle layer below it.
2) Pre-compose, and then nest it in the main comp. Add the mask to the nested comp.
If you aren’t clear on nesting and pre-composing, check out this tutorial:
