In this new tutorial you'll learn a quick way to cast 3D shadows onto live action footage. This method is sometimes referred to as: Matte Shadow, which will be a subject in the future as it also pertains to 3D animation composting. Free tutorials can also be discussed in our new online forum.

New site looks great! It's so crazy that I was just messing around with some floating 3D text and trying to figure out shadows when I came back to check up on the site! Total coincidence...Andrew I think you have telepathic powers on top of your amazing computer skills

Hmmm...Whenever I turn ACCEPT LIGHTS OFF on my BG LAYER, my Shadows disappear. Anyone know how to make this work?

Hi andrew, your moive effect is really cool and you are my model already. I learned AE from your basic training at first. IBut recently I have a problem when I try to do some effect. I try to make a text effect like this one(http://www.ayatoweb.com/ae_tips_e/ae14_e.html#) But that one cant support tranditional chinese word, do you know any other way can make the same effect and also can support chinese word.thank you! and sorry about my english not well(maybe grammer havs some problems ><")

Makes me think about Fringe, even if the texts are more "real" 3D. I can't wait till I find text layers everywhere on the streets
of course, I think we ALL need to go to VP street

Gunnerson street almost killed me, and my hamster made some strange noises in his cage, so he enjoyed it as well.
Another great job Andrew, thanks!
