3D Shadow - Grass 08

How many times did you need to add a separate flat shadow while working on your design to make it look more realistic? How often did you want to extract a shadow from a real object, but fail to do so? Shadows can be tricky to manipulate because they are not solid objects. We have the solution! Our 100% transparent shadows feature ambient occlusion, making them easy to use and perfect for designers, cartoon artists, visual effects artists, compositors, and 3D artists who need to add a shadow to their scene. Images were originally rendered at 2000×2000 pixels with 16-bit depth per channel to prevent banding. They were then cropped to reduce the file size and fit the content ratio. Shadows were captured from different angles at 25°, 45°, and from the top in multiple directions. We saved two versions of shadows from each object: one hard shadow for sunny scenes and one soft shadow for cloudy scenes. These shadows are excellent for use in both 2D and 3D projects and are noiseless. Choose the shadow that suits your design and apply it to the object. Then, use any deformer tool like the "Transform" tool in Photoshop or the "Corner Pin" effect in After Effects, or an equivalent tool in another software to deform the shadow. (Video tutorials are attached.) You can mix hard and soft shadows as you like, depending on the light conditions of your scene. Shadow is always just a shadow, never changing.
