And the same goes for the color fill layer and its layer mask. Both of those have to be transformed in exactly the same way. In order to do that, I'm gonna turn both of these into a smart object, and I'd have to do that anyway actually with a video layer, because you cannot transform a video layer unless it's a smart object. Before I do that, however, I'm gonna come over to the timeline panel, and I'm gonna move the color fill track all the way over to the beginning. Now notice that there is a gap here where the color fill track is not the same length as the leading actress track. That's gonna cause a problem here in a minute.
