Bezier Masking

Hello and thank you for your time,
Using Bezier Masking may I reveal more than one underlaying track in the negative mode for both?
Example:
Say a wall with two photo's on it.
Photo 1 is masked and shows a film of snowboarding.
Photo 2 is masked and shows a film of flowers.

I thopught about building a track with all the elements segmented across each frame but this seems extreme.

Thank you,
Marty

Marty,

Yes, what you need to do is punch holes in both tracks. If you have the wall on the top track and photo 1 on the second track and photo 2 on the third track here’s what you do: In the top track (with the wall), punch two holes for the left and right pictures. On the second track, punch a hole for the third track to show through to the top. Line this up with the original hole in the first track. The third track (photo 2) should now show through the hole in both tracks.

An easy was to line up the hole is to make the hole for photo 2 first and save it as a preset. Then add the hole for photo 1 but don’t save that. then go to track two and recall the preset with the first hole. It should line up perfectly.
