Here is a picture Adam to better show my problem. As you can see my shadow catcher is all white? How and why I ask lol. What I’m expecting to have is my shadow catcher be invisible besides the shadows? I tried nearly every option that I can think of.

In ps I would extract my elements put them together then add the shadow pass on them not the same with AE?

thanks again

Hey Adam thanks for the reply. It seems everything works minus the shadow on the ground?

I tried the exact same setup I did in PS with no luck. I tried the ground plane(shadow catcher) with seen my camera on and off.

Thanks Matt I interpreted the footage in one of my specail passes and that did the trick. I’m still very new to C4D but it is addicting.

Thanks for the reply. It’s like snow/fizzing and when I do see blocks I thing that is just a data rate issue.
