Thanks for watching! Please don't forget to subscribe to this channel for more Blender & technology tutorials like this one! :) In this Blender VFX Tutorial I cover: - How to use Blender 2.79's new 'Shadow Catcher' option for the Cycles render engine (how to have only the shadows cast on an object appear, thereby making compositing 3D objects with their shadows into video footage possible) - How to composite 3D objects (with shadows) in a scene into video footage using nodes. - How to render with a transparent background - How to adjust shadow transparency and fuzziness, allow for 'color bounce' from the invisible floor and sky.
