When you’re done, you can finish the mask by doing one of the following:

Click the first point to close the mask.
•
Press C to close the mask, joining the first point you created to the last.
•
Double-click to close the mask, joining the first point you created to the last.
•
Press Return to close the mask, joining the first point you created to the last.

After you’ve finished drawing the mask, its effect is immediate, and the mask you
created appears nested underneath the object to which it’s applied in the Layers tab
and Timeline.
