I have a background and an unlimited amount of images or animations where I'd like to mask or clip part of the image or animation to the background. I'd like the user to use or move around a polygon to determine where they would like this to happen. See JSFiddle
I've tried a couple things but I seem to have to re-add the background image multiple times to get the effect I'm looking for but even at that, it's not just filling the polygon. I'd the user to be able to move the polygon around and resize the shapes or animations and have the mask or clip effect still work.
Any help would be appreciated!

Given the example, I'd like an output like this:
