3D Shadow - Plate 03

How often have you struggled to achieve a realistic flat shadow in your design? How many times did you try extracting a shadow from a real object only to fall short? Shadows can be notoriously difficult to manipulate, as they lack substance! Fortunately, we've got the solution for you. Our 100% transparent shadows come equipped with Ambient Occlusion, making it easy for designers, cartoon artists, visual effects artists, compositors, and even 3D artists to add a shadow to their scene. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, these shadows are designed specifically for you. They contain everything you need to create a realistic look for your project. The images were originally rendered at 2000x2000 pixels with 16-bit depth per channel to prevent banding. We then cropped them to reduce the file size and fit the content ratio. Shadows were captured from various angles, including 25°, 45°, and top-down shots in multiple directions. Two versions of each shadow are available: a hard shadow perfect for sunny scenes and a soft shadow ideal for cloudy conditions. These shadows are excellent for use in both 2D and 3D projects and are completely noise-free. Simply choose the shadow that suits your design, apply it to the object, and then use any deformer tool, such as the "Transform" tool in Photoshop or the "Corner Pin" effect in After Effects, to deform the shadow. (Video tutorials are provided.) You can mix and match hard and soft shadows to create a realistic look that perfectly matches your scene's lighting conditions. Remember, shadows remain consistent across different environments.
