3D Shadow - Truck 05

3docean

How many times do designers and artists struggle to create a realistic shadow in their work? How often have they tried extracting a shadow from an object, only to be frustrated by the difficulties of working with something that's not solid? The solution is finally here. We've developed 100% transparent shadows with Ambient Occlusion, making it easier than ever to achieve a realistic look for your project. Whether you're a designer, cartoon artist, visual effects artist, compositor, or 3D artist, our shadows are designed specifically for you. They contain everything you need to create a believable scene, and they're incredibly easy to use. Images were rendered at 2000x2000 pixels with 16-bit depth per channel to prevent banding, then cropped to reduce file size and fit the content ratio. We captured shadows from multiple angles - 25°, 45°, and from directly above - in various directions. We also created two versions of each shadow: hard for sunny scenes and soft for cloudy scenes. These are ideal for use in both 2D and 3D projects, and they're completely noiseless. Choose the right shadow for your design and apply it to the object. Then, simply use any deformation tool - like the Transform tool in Photoshop or the Corner Pin effect in After Effects - to deform the shadow as needed. (Video tutorials are included below.) You can mix and match hard and soft shadows to suit the lighting conditions of your scene. And remember, a shadow is just a shadow - it's not going to change.
