hi guys, i am struggling a little, i have read through the other posts regarding this tutorial, but the fractal noise layer, doesnt seem to dissapear for me, quote:

I seem to have noodled it out.

With the Text/Shine Comp as layer 1, and the fractal noise comp (mine named smoke) below as layer 2,
apply the effect, Channel>Set Matte to layer 2 (fractal noise/smoke comp).

Set matte settings:
Take Matte from layer – layer2 smoke
Use for Matte – Luminance

i did this, but my smoke layer is still visible and it doesnt combine with me shine animation. Isnt this smoke meant to like be invisible and give the shine a kind of smoky look???

can i send some1 my file to have a look???? if anyone has the time and patience 😛 lol, let me know..thanks again
