Hello Ya'll! I simply want to make a picture of a runing animated caracter to fly past the screen put become invisible while the caracter is behind my face on the camera. I've tried using masks on my face, but when I animate the caracter to fly past the screen the mask followes it and leaves my face. I've been stuck for 35 min now. If you know a solution to this feel fre to give me some advice!

Don't create the mask on the character layer, put it on your face: Copy your face clip to track 3 where you create the mask (you should have another copy of your clip on track 1, but without a mask), put your character on track 2 and animate it.

For this kind of masking, I would recommend using a track matte key. This technique allows you to create masks that are independent of your object's animation. You can find detailed instructions on how to add a track matte key in Premiere Pro in this guide: Add Track Matte Key.

Just put the character on a lower video track than your face.

Why are you using a mask?

I put a mask over my face/body, so when the character went over my body is became invisible. I still don't know how to do it the easy way. I just brute forced my way thrue by setting up different keyframes manualy for over an hour. But thanks anyway!
