thanks, finally someone posted a tutorial about this!
glad you like it
Nice tutorial..but in what situations would i need to render shadows seperately?…i didnt get that
thanks for the question
if you render everything by its own on a different pass, then you will have complete control at the end to play wit hthe reflections, shadows, colors, etc…
so if you dont like 1 thing u dont need to go back and keep re-rendering and waste more thime, this way you can control each thing on its own…
the way they render 3d animated cartoons is the same way i think
Very nice your tuto!!
thk you.
good idea… i see what you mean about wasting time and re-rendering. i’m not sure how this could be done with other programs, but generally speaking, it is a good idea.
thanks hussain!
Loved the tutorial..keep ‘em coming bro..
Good work.. nice idea
Hi! Thanks for the nice tutorial!
I got one problem though…
Everything is fine and works like you showed in this tut, but when i get to the part where i need to convert the shadows alfa channel into a layer in PS.
Thing is that my shadows don’t have transparent background after i copy it. I get black shadows AND the white background with it. Unlike you, where you get only the shadows.
I hope you understand my problem and have time to help me
BTW: I’m using Photoshop CS2.
Htz.
Hey,
Did you save them as PNG or TIF like i’ve done?
or did you export as JPG ?
Great tutorial thanks!
