Masking in After Effects is a technique used to selectively hide or reveal parts of a layer by using shapes or paths. It's a fundamental feature that allows you to create complex animations, effects, and composites by controlling the visibility of certain portions of a layer.
Masks can be adjusted in shape, size, and position over time, allowing for complex animations and visual effects. They are commonly used for compositing, creating transitions, and applying targeted adjustments to layers.
Besides masking regular layers, you can also use masks with text layers and shape layers to create interesting effects and animations. A track matte is a layer that uses the transparency of another layer (usually a black-and-white image or a layer with an alpha channel) to control its visibility. This is often used to create advanced masking effects.
Masks can be used with various effects to isolate specific areas for the application of those effects. For example, you can apply color correction or blurring only to the masked area.
Remember that masking in After Effects offers a lot of creative possibilities, and it's a skill that becomes more intuitive with practice.
