Effect Matte v1.3.2 is a very useful plugin for Adobe After Effects that aims to simplify layer transition mattes with a cleaner timeline. Effect Matte adds a perfectly sized and customizable matte to your layer, removing the need for an additional layer to act as a track matte.
Effect Matte lets you create, control and frame matte instantly. The best part is that it eliminates the need to set up and create a matte path, keeping your schedule nice and clean. The plugin allows you to have precise control over matte expansion, rotation, contraction, and position. The plugin also provides full control over transforms which means you can easily switch to and from the active layer with a single based slider.
