In all my years as animator I've never thought copying a mask path to an other layer's position would be possible. Nice!

One issue I encountered that wasn't covered was closed paths. When creating the path (CTR+J), if you have closed paths in the mix, they won't be attached, so you need to break them apart. Otherwise, when you import the path, you'll have multiple masks vs just one. So I used the cut tool (C) and clicked on a point on the path to break it apart. I did that for each closed path until I was left with only one path. Then it worked great!

@@zipdemons4975 Basically, when you have, let's say 5 separate closed paths that you want to combine. You have to be sure that you use the cut tool on each path. Once you try to join them (CTR + J), they should all become one path, if not, just do the process again until they are. Hope that's clear. :)

Make sure the dimensions of the Illustrator artboard is the same size as the composition. Also make sure the scale of the layer is 100. If it’s too big for the comp you’ll need to revise that artwork. Do not change the scale of the artwork layer.

@TheBackyardFilmmakers
3 жыл бұрын
Did any of the solutions near the end of the video help? Those are the usual answers I have. On the other hand, my guess from your text is to make sure you are copying just the mask path and nothing else. Step by step is to expand the mask to reveal the “path” attribute in the mask. Hope that helps.

Have you tried linking the hand video with the start value of the stroke effect with an expression? This way you could pile your stroke layers in illustrator in the same position and then never worry about syncing keyframes and realign the layers trough AE.

Help? All going fine until I go to create my mask. I can't see my paths after I try to copy and paste them from Illustrator into AfterEffects! I change the background color in AE. I go back to Illustrator and select my joined paths with no stroke or fill color, Ctrl+C, go back to AE, click on the correct layer(I only have one), hit Ctrl+V, but no paths appear. The light grey highlighted layer name turns darker grey when I paste and when I ctrl+Z, the dark grey goes back to light grey. It takes another Ctrl+Z to undo the background color change, so I know something happened when I tried to paste. Why can't I see or select my path and nodes after pasting??

I like After Effects more than Videoscribe. And yes I’ve used videoscribe about 10 years ago. I created this solution because I was sick of the lines and artwork not matching the hand movement in videoscribe. When you can upgrade to After Effects you’ll have more control and the animation looks a lot better in after effects. Let us know once you have a video using this method.
