This is the best explanation of this concept that I have seen. Thank you so much. Waaay easier to understand what's happening than other videos I've watched. I appreciate that you aren't skipping steps and include just enough info about why youre doing something. Also no goofy joke intermissions. THANKS!
Very interesting! I'll be doing some 3D shadows on my next project so your video came in real handy and I'm looking forward to trying out your technique. You've got a new subscriber.
I tried following this video exactly, but can't get the spot light to actually cast shadows on the plane. I have shadows enabled in the view, on the spotlight and on the plane.
This was super clear and well presented. Now that I have studio key I will able to unlock camera tracker and give this technique a go. I can't imagine why 14 ppl gave this a down vote lol.
Since upgrading to Davinci Resolve 19 Im not sure if maybe a setting changed but when I view the merge 3D now to try and adjust stuff it's just full of so much overlay like 100's of green X's and I can't really see what Im doing. Probably something Im doing wrong. Thanks
First of all amazing tutorial! Thanks! Second i ran into some issues. I did all the steps on my first clip and everything worked fine but when i tried the same thing on the second clip i want to use camera tracker it just doesn't start tracking. When i try deleting the node the program asks me if i want to stop the render process and it won't let me do that. After this message Davinci just shuts down. Any idea how to solve this issue?
Excellent tutorial, thank you very much. The only problem is that the image is extremely distracting and I had to watch it about twenty times before I was able to concentrate. If you had zoomed in the camera tracking window it would have helped me to take my eyes off the beauty on the screen and also to be able to actually see something, because the letters were rather small even on full screen mode. For the rest, a great help.
Hey, thanks for this great tutorial! I'm having an annoying issue though. Basically when you change the rendere type from the camera tracker, from OpengGL to Software my shadows become ugly rectangles not matching the letters at all. The real problem is that with OpengGL i get perfect shadows but as soon as i try to change the font or go to edit page for playback, Davinci will eventually crash. Anybody can relate or might help me out?
I don't think I mentioned it was free. If I did, I apologize. If I didn't, it was just your assumption. I always recommend getting the studio version anyway, for that reason, among many. 1 time payment, free upgrades, added features.

the best explanation and complete video about every subjet that ive been into the last year, amazing you helped me a lot, thank you broki
I didn't really manage to accomplish this effect but I really learned a lot. Thanks so much.

Thanks so much Gary!
Hands down the very best video tutorial on the topic.
Thank you for the kind words!

Me either. 😀 Thank you for the kind words!

Great tutorial, helped me in the video I just posted. Nice work!
@@TheDShow thanks! Glad it was helpful!
Just peeked at your video, looks great!
thank you sir... gracias señor,

Unfortunately no, I'm sorry. I would ask someone over on the Blackmagic forums. Hopefully they can help!
thank you so much !!!! love you
Will this work with a chroma keyed person instead of the text? I need to create a shadow of that person in my final composition.
I don't need any tracker since my subject is not moving around the space. Just a cohesive shadow that mimics the arms and body movement.
Very clear and to the point! All the dislikes just had a bad day.
Thank you for saying so and for the kind words
my guess are the dislikes are from the girl. It makes it a challenge to research techniques at work, on the job, when there is a girl in a bikini.
Is there a way where you can make artificial shadows with two dimensional rotoscopes
The nodes are to small...
I agree.
Really cool and informative
Thank you!
Can we do it without camera tracker?

camera tracker isn't free
this

Informative comment.
