I want to create an effect similar to the effect on www.esp-agency.com.When you click on either new york or london the animation that follows is what I am interested in. A line goes across the screen and wipes the text once then again.

I realize this must be done with masking, however any attempt of mine fails. I can get the mask to go one way fine, but not both screen 'wipes' in one go.

thanks for any help.

I think that was done with multiple masks..

- 1st Mask goes from left to right and shows whats underneath..
- 2nd mask is created as also a White Type layer, and the new mask is being moved from right to left.

I think there is a massive masking work behind it, and also a lot of scripting to control the mask. I'm pretty sure thy didn't animate it on the IDE..
