You can install Glass Slice V2 effect by taking the whole “Glass Slice V2″ folder and placing it into your Effects Folder. This folder is located at “HOME FOLDER>Movies>Motion Templates>Effects>

You do awsome work! Very useful for production. Thank You!!
fun !!!
Thanks for the plugin, i have trouble in making the animation of the mask postion (in Y axis) , i make two keyframes for the Y position but unfortunately nothing happens !! no keyframe animation in y axis !!!! i’m in snow leopard
Thanks in advance
Make sure you add your first key frame, the move later in your timeline, add your second keyframe then reposition the Y value. If you move the Y position before you add a second keyframe it will move the whole animation.
Thanks for your response, i’ve do it and still no animation !! you can check by your self, maybe a bug or something wrong with me
eighter there is no keyframe animations with all the parameters
Ah ok, probleme solved, it was my mistake : i have to click first on the keyframe and then put a value on Y axis, and so on … well thanks another time for amazing plugin
