Hi,
I have a problem and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I follow the tutorial, add light and set Casts Shadows on in the Text Layer but there is still no shadow. I made a screenshot:

But i have a problem...
I use After Effects CS6. When i motion track the footage it makes a camera. The light will not stay at the same point because the camera move... What can i do that the light ignores the camera and stay at the same point? Sorry for my bad english :)
