Apply masks to individual layers, for example to create a vignette.
Add unlimited layers and reorder as required. Changes are applied non-destructively.
Each layer has its own opacity slider where its influence on the overall look can be adjusted.
3. Animate masks or grades to match movement and changing light in your frames.
Add keyframes to your masks or grading tracks.
Adjust masks or grading at keyframe positions.
SpeedGrade CS6 animates transitions smoothly between keyframes.

Look file.
The Look file preserves all the layers and settings of the grade.
Click a Look file to apply it to selected footage on the Timeline.
