What is object shadow

What is a cast shadow A cast shadow is where the shadow is where the object and background are not in parallel. Therefore, the shadow is not consistent.


It may start out dark and small but ends up bigger and lighter. Cast shadows are mainly used to provide realism to the picture or object at the same time adding to the 3D effect

What is object shadow An object shadow is the darker area in the background that has the same outline as the object. When light from a source reaches an opaque object, it is blocked. If there is a background close behind it, the area which appears darker because it is less illuminated is what is referred to as the object shadow.
