Amazing! The Mask is a 1994 American superhero comedy film directed by Charles Russell, produced by Bob Engelman, and written by Mike Werb, loosely based on the Mask comics published by Dark Horse Comics.
AHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA
wow ty i honestly did not know this
Hot Tip: the ‘Create Nulls From Path.jsx’ script (in the Windows menu) will automatically assign null layers to each mask point. This works with Shape Layer bezier paths too. Then you can animate each mask vertice independently and precisely, or track the point to another object or footage, or assign expressions to the null to create procedural animation on your mask. Opens up a LOT of powerful possibilities for mask animation which on its own is pretty sloppy.
Another option in the Create Nulls From Path script is “Trace Path” which will track a single null automatically to follow along the path’s edges. The null’s rotation will also auto-orient to the path. It sets default position keyframes to trace the path around over one second, I think, which can be adjusted. Then you can track things like particle generators or other layers to the null.
fantastic tool!
@@seencapone Sean Capone ladies and gents!!! Google this legend 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Exactly. A great built in script that AE added. Maks points>to Null. Still wish mask points would be as flexible to animate like other objects in AE..so you could use the Speed/Value graph on them and edit their curves
hoooooot tip!
Hee Nick awesome again, you forgot the "press and hold spacebar" while drawing a mask, the. You cann still move it
damn! I didn't know this one. Nice tip!

Love the tut!! Great take aways!!!
Very Useful and Amazing Stuff, Thanks 😃🔥
Very very thank you so much nick🕵🏼👌🤙
Great tips!
the right-click track mask looks like a simple version of the MochaAE plugin, which I'd use instead in most cases but great to have a quick option
Nice!! Thank you!
Learned what I don't know... Thank you !!!
Love it, thanks
i often using 5:23 this trick + adding feather for making gradient
crazy boy...thank you
That's awesome! I didn't know you could actually use the pan behind tool to move the footage behind a mask...
Интересно, спасибо!)
Nick awesome content as usual. would love to see if you could do a video on demystifying displacement; I feel it's one of those subjects that honestly escapes everyone. It's logic and how it works. And how it could be useful. I feel it's one of those powerful things that people don't get to under stand.
would love to explore this topic thank you!!
Add generate stroke to the mask layer to watch the mask shape and position as it plays
Thanks :D
Once again really good! ty! but nick... theres cc vignette.. just sayin
Great tips Nick! For the pan behind part, is it possible to keyframe that (have a layer move but the mask stay stationary)?
good question! Not that i am aware of. In this case, it is likely more efficient to use a matte or set matte
Good tips. I know only few.
Effectivly, that's things I didn't known about mask 👌
Hello Nick!
You mentioned AE script sale. Can you share where do you usually get your plug ins?
Yes! My favorite scripts/plugins are from Mt Mograph and Battle Axe. Both have discounts with the code "NICK" :D

@@motionbynick Thank you!
Got any of your own hot mask tips? 👇
Hee Nick awesome again, you forgot the "press and hold spacebar" while drawing a mask, the. You cann still move the mask
You can change the mask mode while you drawing it if you press the first letter of modes like a for add or n for none but for darken use d and for difference use f
@@emadsalah8769 N for none is great. Going to use this
Hey man! Thanks!! I am loosing my mind! I have a green screen footage masked ( as with any footage! ) it works but as soon I add any FX then it disapears. No mask anymore...:-(( What did I do wrong??? Thanks for letting me know!! best Marco
Could you remove that hot air balloon from the video?
