Does anyone know of a plugin to animate the mask opacity in Pr?

Not sure I understand exactly what you are trying to achieve but you can already animate mask opacity in Premiere Pro.

In the Effects Controls panel for the layer you are masking, you can animate 'opacity' by changing the values next to opacity.

From 100% to what ever value you want. Once you've set the first level of opacity click the 'stopwatch' icon next to Opacity to set a keyframe. Then move to where you want the next opacity level set and adjust the opacity level again (and another keyframe will be set). 

Is that what you are after?

Hi Steve, I should have been more clear here. The opacity level control only is rendered inoperable if the mask is inverted. There is no degree of control.  I am searching for a solution to animate the mask opacity in an inverted mask. 

 

Thanks

Yes, interesting. I've never had troubles doing this.

 

Wonder what's going haywire on your setup? That's a pain.

It is a pain but I was assuming my issue - no opacity control for inverted masks, was the defualt. I'll send this to Adobe. System-wise, I am on a Windows 10 machine. Are you on a Mac?
