  • psd 2d layer, influeces 3d layer shadows

    Posted by Kurisuta Vd wilk on May 25, 2012 at 11:18 am

    Hello! this is my setup:

    a bunch of illustrator layers in 3d which will not accept light and shadows, cast shadows > on
    a animated camera
    a light
    a background which accept shadows.

    I need a logo to be constantly in the image.
    So i imported the logo as a psd file ( cause i need the alpha ),
    place it, and leave it as a 2d layer, so it will stay in its place when the camera will be animated

    Now this is what happens, when i make the psd layer visible, it influences the shadows of the 3d layers.

    Why is this?
    I can not figure out why this is happening..
