DAY 2 - Figuring out basic animations using text and alpha mattes.

TRACK MATTES and MASKS:

Both of these tools have the same general effect. They cut out a portion of a layer, to reveal the layers beneath them. This is useful to create reveals, to key something out, or to generate things like shapes.

The difference between the two is that a mask is dependent on a specific layer, while a track matte is independent of the layers.


➤ 100 DAY Animation Challenge from Beginner:
This is the second video in the series in which I will spend 100 days creating any form of animation as a beginner and hopefully, by the end, be quite familiar with both Animation and Illustration with After effects and Illustrator.

If You have any suggestions as to what I should try and create put them in the comments! I'd like to learn as much as I can in 100 days!

Thank You For Watching.
