Moving Masking Tutorial (No Lag)

I made this after I found out I had over 400 subscribers on my main account, SuicidalCandyPop

Also, I want to dedicate this to my best friend V
http://www.youtube.com/user/HarukaAngelDarknes
She wanted a tutorial on how to mask moving things, so here you go.
I will be adding annotations in a moment.

BTW: make sure before or after you mask, right click your clip, go to 'Properties' and click 'Disable Resample'. This way, your mask will not lag.

Can I mask using Vegas Movie Studio HS Platinum 10.0, or do I need a different version?

@100Sweetflowergirl this is the only was to mask moving scenes in Vegas Pro programs. You have to mask every single movement of your clip to make a moving mask. In Adobe After Effects there is a feature that allows you to mask Once, and the program will understand the movement of the mask and mask it automatically. But in Vegas, there is no such thing :/

@reissecup It should be possible in all Vegas Pro versions
