Shadows not exporting After Effects CC
Hey guys, I am relatively new to the Afer Effects world but understand the basics. I have a simple animated text video with a light and cast shadows. The composition in After Effects plays exactly how I want it, with all the shadows. When I export however, two places in the final video do not have their cast shadows. They are there in the program, but not in the render.
Thanks for any help!

Show a screenshot of your Timeline panel with the relevant layers and properties so that we can see how you have things set up.

The very next scene is this, and it works perfect, having shadows after the export

I really am not sure what it was. However, when it worked correctly I used the preset export options that were already in place. Not sure why what I was doing before would have affected shadows though. it was probably something else that I was unaware of.
Thanks Todd
