I have a video - think Invisible man - I have created and animated 3 separate masks to show the background beneath which appears to work on the rendered window but do not work when I animate to the final movie clip as mp4. I went into the composite window to set the nodes up. What am I doing wrong? I'm sure I've done this before with success. Please help, it's driving me crazy image of screenshot attached

I was using mix nodes to join the 2 layers. I order to do this you should use an Alpha Over node. My thanks to CGCookie for their posting on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eQst8SAVRE&t=3s it is version 2.8 but did the trick for me. An added bonus was the multiple masking technique they showed. I can't add a picture at this point as when posting it seems I overwrite the text so I'll comment afterwards with the screenshot. Many thanks. Rob.
