Take a look at this:

Now I know the image is masked and everything, what I want to know is how they pulled off that white effect going over her body. Kinda cool, and Im sure its really easy, but for some reason I cannot figure it out.

Anyone have any ideas?

The mask is just an out line of the body. The masked bit is just a gradient (White alpha 0% - White alpha 100% - White alpha 0%) that is tweened down the screen

This tutorial isn’t exactly the same, but it’s similar and it will give you an idea of how it works.
