How often do you struggle with adding a convincing shadow to your design? How many times have you tried extracting a realistic shadow from an object, only to fall short? Shadows can be notoriously difficult to manipulate because they lack substance. That's why we're proud to offer 100% transparent shadows with Ambient occlusion, designed to simplify your workflow. Whether you're a designer, cartoon artist, visual effects specialist, compositor or 3D artist in need of a shadow for your scene, these tools are tailored to meet your needs and easy to use. They contain everything required to create a realistic look for your project. The images used were originally rendered at 2000×2000 pixels with 16-bit depth per channel to prevent banding, then cropped to reduce file size and fit the content ratio. Shadows were captured from various angles - 25°, 45°, and from above in multiple directions - before saving two versions of each shadow: one hard shadow for sunny scenes and another soft shadow for cloudy scenes. Both are ideal for use in 2D and 3D projects, with the added benefit of being noiseless. 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 - or its equivalent in another software to deform the shadow. Video tutorials are provided for reference. You can mix and match hard and soft shadows as needed, depending on the lighting conditions of your scene. Remember, a shadow is a shadow and will always remain so.
