How often do you wish for a precise flat shadow while working on your design to make it appear more lifelike? How many times have you attempted to extract a shadow from a real object, only to fall short? Shadows can be challenging to manipulate because they lack substance! Here's the solution we've developed. We've created 100% transparent shadows with Ambient Occlusion added to simplify your workflow. Whether you're a designer, cartoon artist, visual effects expert, compositor or even a 3D artist, and you need to add a shadow to your scene, these are for you and easy to use, containing everything needed to create a realistic look for your project. Images were originally rendered at 2000×2000 pixels with 16-bit depth per channel to prevent banding. They were then cropped to reduce file size and fit the content ratio. Shadows were captured from various angles @ 25°, 45°, and from top in multiple directions. We saved two versions of shadow from each object - one is a Hard shadow used in sunny scenes and the other is a Soft shadow used in cloudy scenes. These are perfect for use in 2D and 3D projects, plus they're noiseless. Choose which shadow suits your design and apply it to the object. Then, simply use any deformer tool like the "Transform" tool in Photoshop or the "Corner Pin" effect in After Effects, or its equivalent in any other software to deform the shadow. (Video tutorials are included). You can mix between hard and soft shadows as you prefer, depending on the light conditions of your scene. Finally, a shadow is a shadow and will never change.
