Effect Matte
Developer: Plugin Everything
Adds a sized, feathered matte straight onto an After Effects layer without a separate track matte layer.
What Effect Matte does
Effect Matte, from Plugin Everything, applies a matte directly to a layer in After Effects. The usual approach requires an extra layer acting as a track matte, and this effect removes that step by sizing the matte automatically when applied.
The matte can be expanded or contracted, rounded, feathered and inverted. It supports multi-frame rendering and runs natively on Apple Silicon, so it fits modern fast workflows. Artists who build many cutouts, reveals and shape-based masks get cleaner compositions with fewer layers to manage.
Key features
