I don’t know of a plugin that will create a mask that will track to video.
I wanted to create this same effect and I had to mask the specfic piece frame by frame. It turned out Ok but I would love a plugin that would do this…
Thanks

I wanted to add that Rotoscoping is not just rig removal or masking out a character in an old Black and white film..(my personal pet project right now)…At it’s exxence Rotoscoping is drawing frame by frame on your motion piece. Not just movies not just animation. If you want to see some strong examples of Rotoscoping..Check out some Expiremental filmmaking where the artists LITERALLY draw on every frame of film.
Very intensive process. One must sit in a really comfortable chair.

it seems that you could make your composition longer and that would in turn make your work area longer….If in fact that is the question you are asking..

I had to do something like this once…I found that I had to take a low res map and recreate it in something like Illustrator or some other vector graphics program. then resize it so I could zoom in and out…long process but the results were quite nice and you don’t have to pay any royalties for the map…
Good Luck

are you importing the text as type or are you converting the text to outlines?? I’ve found that if I am switching between machines that the text as outlines seems to import into AE better and it keeps the vectorness of it…

you can import PSD files as composistions that might preserve your masks and paths…but you will not be able to manipulate them once you do….
