How many times did you struggle to add a convincing flat shadow to your design while working on it? How often did you try to extract a realistic shadow from an actual object, only to fall short? Shadows can be notoriously difficult to manipulate because they don't have solid forms. Fortunately, we've developed the solution! Our 100% transparent shadows come with Ambient occlusion built-in, making your work much easier. Whether you're a designer, cartoon artist, visual effects artist, compositor, or 3D artist in need of adding a shadow to your scene, these are perfect for you and easy to use. They contain everything necessary to give your project a realistic look. The images were originally rendered at 2000 x 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 different angles, including 25°, 45°, and directly from above in multiple directions. Two versions of shadow were saved for each object: a hard shadow ideal for sunny scenes and a soft shadow suitable for cloudy scenes. These shadows are excellent for use in both 2D and 3D projects and are completely noiseless. Choose the shadow that best suits your design, apply it to the object, and 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 see fit, depending on the light conditions of your scene. Finally, remember that a shadow is simply a shadow and doesn't change under different circumstances.
