Trouble Creating Alpha Mask MC In AS3

Hello,

I am running into trouble getting an alpha mask to work correctly in AS3. The mask itself seems to be working on the pixelated movieclip, but the alpha channel isn't appearing at all.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best,

Justin

import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;

var pixelated_mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
addChild(pixelated_mc);
pixelated_mc.y = 0;
pixelated_mc.x = 0;

//var flood_mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
//addChild(flood_mc);
//flood_mc.x = 0;

var pixelSize = 4;

//var holder:Bitmap = new Bitmap();

//holder.bitmapData = mytest;
//this.addChild(holder);
// Do not display bitmap


//this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, pixelate);

function pixelate(){
var bitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData( original_mc.width/pixelSize, original_mc.height/pixelSize, false );
var bitmap:Bitmap = new Bitmap(bitmapData);
pixelated_mc.addChild(bitmap);
var scaleMatrix:Matrix = new Matrix();
scaleMatrix.scale(1/pixelSize, 1/pixelSize);
bitmapData.draw( original_mc, scaleMatrix );
bitmap.width = original_mc.width;
bitmap.height = original_mc.height;

//maskCircle_mc.blendMode = BlendMode.ALPHA;

addChild(original_mc);

maskCircle_mc.cacheAsBitmap;
original_mc.cacheAsBitmap;
pixelated_mc.mask = maskCircle_mc;
pixelate();
