    Hi There

    Really would appreciate any help you could give me on this.

    Basically setting up a scene that needs to be composited back over live action.

    I found the Shadow Catcher plug in and have followed the tutorial (i deffinately clicked invert) to the letter but am getting weird effects.

    Instead of a transparent alpha i’m getting grey textures that the renderer will pump out as a grey floor.

    any ideas how to solve this? I know its an older plug in – are their any better methods for getting shadows now?

    i am in cinema 13.

    help really appreciated.
