Step 24: When the ball moves, the text comes behind the ball. Step 23: Here we go now we see the animation. We need to adjust the keyframes in every moment when the object moves our path, which may mismatch with the object, so we need to observe well and match the path and adjust the keyframes equal to the object. Step 21: Go to mask – mask feather – Change the feather it is better to change the feather in every moment of the object whenever we feel that the object is different, we need to change the feather with that we get a natural feel of the image. Step 20: Now go to text-transform – opacity and change the opacity value as you like I have kept the opacity as 80 when you apply opacity, we can see a realistic image. Step 19: Now see the picture it shows like the ball has masked the text we have the original layer below the text layer in the middle and the upper mask. Step 18: Move the text layer to the middle by that we can mask the text with the above layer, which shows like a ball masking the text, now we cannot see the text because the mask layer has hidden the text when we move the mask layer we can see the text. Step 17: We can see here we have three layers of footage, duplicate and text here, we have a text layer on top.

Step 16: Select color for the text we need to select the perfect color every time, then only we can have a good outlook. We finished the drawing shape, and we created the path and also animated the path it’s just a basic process now we are moving to the next step of masking let us try to mask a text with the ball now. Step 13: We need to move until the end motion. Step 12: We need to move the path along with the object we kept three-four points to follow the object we can find the mask following the object. Step 11: Now go to masks – mask – mask path, here we need to select the points where we need to follow the object with the mask path. Step 10: Always keep the mask layer on top because we need to place the original footage in the down layer below. Step 9: We need to draw a path with the pen tool, here we have drawn an outline from the ball to the surface where we are going to mask the layer we will be masking in the outline. Step 8: Select the point from where we need to start masking. Step 7: We can use a selection tool or pen tool to select the path for masking here, I select the pen tool to draw the path.
