Three Ways of Masking Layers in After Effects (AE CC 2018)
Here is a quick tutorial covering three common methods of creating masks/mattes on layers in After Effects.
1. The first method I cover is using track mattes in AE (alpha and alpha inverted mattes). This method requires two layers, one masking the other but both can be animated independently.
2.The second is using merge paths modes like intersect and exclude intersection to create masks. This method only works on shape layers but is much cleaner in that it only requires one layer and both shapes can be animated independently.
3. The third and final method I cover is using the tradition masking function found in Layer-Mask-New Mask. You can also paste paths into masks by copying keyframes.
