    Transforming Mask over time

    Posted by Dasha Legge on April 9, 2009 at 9:02 am

    Hi,

    This is probably a silly easy question.. BUT I quite often make a mask, keyframe it and then find that I need to shift the whole thing over, across all the keyframes or resize it, but without touching the layer. I’ve tried various things but none seem to do it and have then had to either do it by hand or start again…

    There must be a way to do it… mustn’t there???

    Thanks, Dasha.

    Sometimes you have to change the mask by hand, if you go a few frames ahead or even a few seconds and change your mask at that point, over time the mask will move.
