Mask linking - SpeedGrade Tutorial

Mask linking
Let's pick up from the previous movie where we've created a mask, and now we want to see what we can do with this mask. If you have access to the project files, open up 06_03_JANE_END. Now, we've got this mask that we created as you can see here. But if you've worked on versions of SpeedGrade prior to 7.1, here's where things take a radical turn. Notice this little icon down here in the layers stack. It's kind of a Bezier triangle. The mask we created is now assigned to this specific layer, this color balance layer. In previous versions of SpeedGrade, we were limited to one mask applied to this entire layer stack. Every layer could only just use a single mask. But now, starting with SpeedGrade 7.1, every layer can have its own unique, and independently keyframeable mask. This massively increases the flexibility of masks, here in SpeedGrade. So I'll highlight this initial contrast layer, apply a square mask, and then Cmd+up arrow and down arrow through the layers. And you can see that…
