3D Shadow - Tree 61

How many times have you struggled to create a realistic shadow for your design? How often did you try to extract a shadow from an object and fail? Shadows can be tricky to manipulate because they're not solid. But we've got the solution! We've created 100% transparent shadows with Ambient Occlusion to make your work easier. Whether you're a designer, cartoon artist, visual effects artist, compositor, or 3D artist, these shadows are for you and easy to use. They contain everything you need to create a realistic look for your project. Our 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 different angles - 25°, 45°, and from top in multiple directions. We saved two versions of each shadow: one for sunny scenes and another for cloudy scenes. These shadows are excellent for use in both 2D and 3D projects, and they're noiseless. Choose the shadow that 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 the equivalent in any other software to deform the shadow. (Video tutorials are available.) You can mix between hard and soft shadows as you like, depending on the light conditions of your scene. Finally, remember that a shadow is just a shadow - it won't change.
