Text and Logo Behind Mask Reveal - After Effects Tutorial

[@DavidLindgren89]

Thanks for a great video! Just what I needed! :) Some navigation guidelines for the viewers: 2:30 Reveal text with mask 3:39 Reveal logos/images/pre-comps with mask

[@amylikewoah]

15 years in working with After Effects and I didn't realize or remember cmd+shift+n made a new perfect mask. It's the little things. Thanks man, much appreciated!

[@A.Sutherland]

Well done with the explanation. The amount of times I forget how to do this, then look for a tutorial on it. This gets saved. You are so clear in your demonstration.

[@Justsubbruh]

FINALLY!! someone who knows how to explain this! GREAT VIDEO!

[@assaf_story]

You are the first person to explain the difference between animate from animator and from the regular way (hope you got what I tried to say :)) toda rada!

[@Qebzi]

You make everything so easy to understand. Thank you!

[@marcelohonrado1732]

Finally someone who teaches this Mask reveal properly. Huge Thank you!

[@bikotheanimator6169]

This is precisely what I am looking for. Ways to reveal and fade in text or image.

[@carlosabellanosa]

THE ONLY ONE VIDEO EXPLAINING HOW TO MASK A SHAPE LAYER NOT AN IMAGE OR VIDEO WHICH TAKE THE MASK AUTOMATICALLY. THANK YOU!!!

[@silviac.3340]

I can't thank you enough for this tutorial! I'm a rookie in After Effects and with so many tutorials available these days it's quite hard to find one that explains concepts in such a simple, but precise manner. Keep up the good work and thanks again!

[@ThePorcocan]

After 1 hour of failures, you just saved me. THANK YOU

[@simonyeo3246]

Whatever you say at 4.53 - can't understand and is too fast. 'Click toggle mwa zmt and neep' and keep replaying but can't pick it up. Apart from that, yep good

[@master_x_yt8155]

thank you so much after 7 years!

[@JAK_EDITS.]

Literally driving myself CRAZY at work forgetting how to do this as i don't do it everyday. Had the "FUCKING DUH" moment when you explained you need to click animate rather than just messing with the position or animating the mask itself. Tysm mate you deserve more subs/

[@alanjohnson4541]

Awesome work man. Took me several hours to find out how to do this online, the correct way, and you delivered. Thank you so much.

[@KarthikeyanSridhar2491]

Give this guy a medal !

[@jonathandevore1112]

Hallelujah! This is EXACTLY what I needed! I thought it was this huge ordeal to do masking...but you showed a beautifully simple approach. Thanks!

[@cjlindqvist]

Great tutorial! Thanks! Easy to follow.

[@chrischapman7405]

Simple, quick, effective tutorial. Big thanks

[@dfvid]

Great tutorial. I really appreciated the brief explanation of how masks work @ 5.13 - not may other tuts give this broader perspective which is useful for beginners. Sure, I can copy an expression but, like a parrot speaking, I have no idea what is going on...or do parrots actually know what they are saying?!

[@vanishingsides4183]

Thanks for the tutorial!!! I desperately needed it for a project and this helped me a lot!

[@eminemirza]

thnks Mr. Lancaster

[@shannonpretorius]

I create the mask but every time I pull the text down it doesn't disappear, not sure what I'm doing wrong...

[@oscarschade]

So simple, yet so powerful. Thank you!

[@bennington2714]

Thanks for the video.💪

[@nosaddesserts]

Thank you for sharing!

[@Wdomino]

finally found what I needed. I find Adobe really nonlogical why you cant have Position tools for both the text or object and the mask. Therefore it would have been so much easier to understand.

[@caleblancaster]

I've had the same thought.

[@rborroto]

Terrific and simple lesson for a very useful technique. Thanks so much!

[@alexkarlek9936]

Excelent bro, I was trying to find a tutorial like yours. Videos before they didn't explained so detalied. Greetings from Nuevo León.

[@seriousissues2012]

Why doesn't this work for me? When I switch my graphic layer to Alpha Matte, the graphic disappears. Do I need to invert the shape layer somehow?

[@veki7096]

You are a boss! Thanks for the awesome tuts

[@Engberg1206]

Awesome tutorial! Thank you!
