Is there support for masks (layer masks) in Adobe Aero? If so, How do you do them?

I am building a graphic for a wall that  supposed to bring a bunch of animation and additional content for the user. But, I have a TV on the wall that I do not want to cover up with content.  How would I mask that object?

You'd have to use a png image if you want a hole in an image. If you want an animation, you can use a png image sequence. Make sure you have Alpha channel turned on. Export it from After Effects (or wherever) then compress it into a .zip. Then you can import it into Aero.

And with the latest update you can use objects/assets as a mask. So everything you see 'through' that object won't appear.
