PointlessCirclePro Says:

May 1, 2012 - i made a black solid, then added the CC Particle World effect and shaped it to my liking. Then i tried use the pen tool to make a mask. It says there is a mask, and the mask is the right shape, But everything is still in the picture. The mask did nothing, it just shows the lines that i wanted the mask to be in the shape of. help?

Nov 15, 2011 - I guess you can create 2 mask layers, but I don't know how XD I have after effects cs4, in that version its easy, I guess it isn't in cs3. I'm watching these videos cause I don't have any fucking idea about after effects and thanewboston explains well, who cares about if its cs3 or cs4 :D
