Title: Shadow catcher using Corona lights
Post by: steverb on 2019-04-18, 19:58:59

Is it possible to use the Shadow Catcher material just using Corona lights (and no Sky) so the image can be composted with shadows in Photoshop?

Yes. Shadowcatcher can catch lights from anything, will want to use For Compositing mode (the 3ds Max tutorials will work just as well for that, most of the UI will be the same or very similar since all the magic happens in Corona itself)

OK - thanks. I started to watch the 3ds Max tutorial, but I wasn't sure if it would apply to Cinema 4D. I'll give it another shot.
