In this lesson we'll cover the track made. To be true, it's my primary tap to make a nice background or to animate a tricky or webinar transition. Later, we'll cover plugins wave transitions, but now we enjoy the way without it. So here you can see the text mate, I used to have adequate to print it, I hope you download it. Then in the lessons file, there is this texture that you should bring to the project and after bring it behind the mat text. So let's figure out this.

See this top. Now it is not active. If we change it to the for example, our format we will see that the top layer is a mask for texture. Alpha networks actual with a transparent and non transparent part of an object explained clear I can bring a picture instead of text. I mean Bring in PNG file or if it to within our channel. Usually, when I search for a picture with a channel, I print a perfect PNG.

And most likely, I find that I need, you see that among this printer there is an a modification of a plastic. This symbol is a chessboard dedicated that there is no background behind the object. So you can save it and bring it to the after effects. After there is now I'm going to turn off track mat and to x as well. I bring here this spinner. Now we see that there is no background for sure.

And if I put spinner over there texture and select on that, you'll see that alpha works with the area of non transparent of the object and vice versa of invert Matt walks with their traverse area, I mean, it will deduct the layer of the object. Just before we practice alpha mat and alpha invert mat, I will tell you about Luma matte and Luma invert mat Luma tools in contrast our portals walk with a black and white map actually it works with the brightness of the object But to be clear, I'll show you like black and white colors were what has the highest brightness and Black has the last one. I changed to non track matte, choose matte and now I'm going to add by that generate ramp I do a gradient from black to white. Like this one. I turn on the texture and choose Luma matte.

Now I see that in the whites had the text has its highest brightness, like non transparent And in this added layer became transparent, it is now not pretty clear but if I turn on this icon, you will see how it works. So with the help of black and white gradient, we created these capacity grad and it has select ramp and start to move the gradient you'll see that I create an A pasty area with the help of black and white colors. If I select Luma in Birdman, here see the text layer has no background and it literally it has an alpha channel so Luma works without like a non transparent area. And inside this alpha, the gradient works in opposite values. Let's see a Luma matte work in the picture example to make it clear. I make it extra long.

Text layer is turned off and bring the spinner up at the texture. This fact that spinner is yellow, it doesn't make sense After Effects finds the peaks of color by default. So it looks like if I bring in tint effect up here effect, color correction add tint, so I make the picture black and white. In this case, black color has the highest transparency area and the more whiter The color is the more non transparent it will be. Let me select Luma matte. Click this icon.

Here see that Black has no feel at all, and white becomes non transparent. I think it's particularly Luma matte can be useful for textures upper. For example, if I located the spinner make it visible We'll put it under these two layers and see that here is a map that we can use. It looks like I painted the object, I definitely would buy it. The coolest example of using track mat abilities is a screensaver of True Detective who has never seen it definitely should do it. You can find it on vimeo.com.

And by the way, this rose worth watching, of course, will cover this topic, but now I'm talking about flat design, and it has other abilities. So let's try to use alpha track mat. In grading of simple titles or bars, make any composition and image text. Before we start working with information, I'd like to describe basic principles of opportunity. Animation, print alpha and choose the to rectangular to mask. click somewhere to answer that camera thing and draw a rectangular shape, like the text size.

You see that this shape is able to hide the text. As I said, upper layer will be a mask for layer behind if I choose it out on mate. By default upper layer becomes invisible, but you can see its borders. When I grab and move it, the text will be disappeared outside the mask borders, as well as when I grab and move out away text. It will be invisible behind the mask. Now we're going to use it.

I delete everything. And Breeden Brenton you text scale it and crop it. Use a region of the interest and create such a mask. Go to the composition and grab it. To make it ride, let's let the text choose the anchor point to and put it into the center with the help of control plus home. Match the center of composition with anchor point of the text.

Okay, the text is ready. Let's create a new composition. Name it blah ha like born English. Bring text into this one and create a line between the words use bound to and draw a line Go to the grid and guides and turn off title save. You see that the center are not equal. So I can tune it into dried.

Now I'm sure that everything lines up just tried. So we've prepared everything and let's do something more. I duplicate the text, then select the one the first one, then use mask two and card the only word stay so that the second one and card only the word true. This is named TJ and this one true. Now we can turn off save zone and the text and animate the line open position from the grab we can input care and more toward half of a second is there a friend has this out of the border position. Here I bought is it in an added to the graph the line is appeared the test will be stay glides to the left through blood to the right from the line.

So I created two rectangular shapes. Choose Rectangle tool and draw it Android close to the line. It will be the mask make the borders back to back to the line and draw another Same for temblor, you can tune it by arrows on the keyboard. So I'm going to turn it off, then turn off the true. To show it more visible. I'm going to animate a turn of the rectangle, a mosque and put it on the top of the text and choose mod alpha night.

If we animate it by position, so I opened a position key, put it here animated, but before I'm going to hide the text like that, boot is in and played. play the animation. Here you can see that the line has appeared and the text glides from the line. Let's, let's do the same with a word to open the mask, ported over the text and choose format mode. Like the first key of the words pay at boot key position of the word true. Moving towards and made the appearing Do disappear.

I want the line to glide to the left and delete the word than glad to the right and delete the word true. First of all, I animate the line for example, from the second second everybody has already read the text and it's time to cat out so that the line and put the position key. helpful. The sack one eight glide here. It was here. Here I put in here.

It was taped for Monday. No, maybe one crane For the key and after, it will glide to the right side. here will be easily out and there is in play the animation and read the tune the case. It's okay. Just maybe to spread it here and edit the graph. Super, let's animate the disappearing.

So the first time we animate the words, but now I'm going to animate these rectangle mask. This mask will help us to delay the words. Actually the first rectangle a mask for the words stay open position and put the key from the beginning of the line movement. And move their untangle or mask over the border. chakra glad use is the aim and tune the graph. There is only to delete the word true over there.

The distance is minimum to the word, use mask of the word true open position, put the key and change the value according to the line. Also change it to is it in and added the graph You see the ad, you see that according to the knot is a graph it is very difficult to get the speed and make it equal. So, from the first key you should check every frame and unit by position in the very big gaps. For example, here even have a bad big gaps, so you should tune it. For example, here it is definitely needs to be tuned. Here we can see that I have just changed a few keys and now it looks good.

Okay, let's go to line B despair, select the line and open a bestie Dude first care move a few frames and decrease the value over here, move more and increase the value over 85 more trains decrease over time and more. One train okay over 40 and the last frame has zero so it's kind of shimmery effect. Here we have done such animation. Cover track made mold to enemy attacks and simple bars by the way because of the fact That I have created the text competition separately. I can change these words to others. If you do presentations, it's your is a way to do it.

This composition may be not for some marketplaces for personal using, it's okay. But to be true, I did it once. In the lesson span one can find a video that I've downloaded from one marketplace. There are different animation bars. I went to one and then try to repeat in buyer knowledge. I do think you will come up with it.
