You do it by creating the letter as a mask and converting it to an MSO. Set it to autoplay once and stop at last image in the folio overlays panel

I tried, didn't work . what do you mean to create a letter as a mask? I create a shape with the Pen Tool and follow the instruction , but video still playing in square (original shape).

That will never work. You need to cut the letter out of a rectangle and then convert that shape to an MSO. Put that over the video to act as a mask.

Download Bob Bringhurst's DPS Tips app from the app store. I think he has something in there under advanced overlays.
