Using video masks with overlay clips

A video mask is an animated way to reveal the content of an overlay clip. It is similar to a transition in function. You can apply an existing video mask, create and import your own video mask, or import a third-party video mask.

A video mask is a creative way to reveal the underlying content.

There are many ways to make your own video masks. For example, start a new project, and from the Graphics category in the Library, add a black color swatch and a white color swatch to the Timeline. Apply a transition and match the duration to the two swatches. Save your work to a video file (such as MPEG 4, AVI, or MOV). You can then import the file as a video mask.
