For example in photography, the angle in where you put the light makes a portrait flat or dimensional. One important thing about shadows is directionality. In order to really control the shape of my sphere, I in reality put the gradient inside a circle. You could explore more ways to combine them.
Sure, there are other elements like perspective and size.īut the look that a gradient, when used as a shadow, is the main factor.Ī quick way to apply a shadow on an object, but maintain the editability of both, the shadow and the main shape, is the multiply blending mode. But in the end, the thing that gives you shape is the shadow (gradients). If you start combining gradients you now start having different materials. But there are also shadows self-projected in the object, which gives you the internal shapes of the object.Īnd here is when I want to switch the word shadow for a specific tool you can use.ĭifferent types of gradients will give you a thing on what is the 3D shape of the 2D figure The first tells you the background is parallel to the circle, and the second one tells you that the circle is perpendicular to the circle.
In the end, these two types of shadows give you a clue on what is the relation between the object and the background.
But adding shadows gives you visual parameters on things that are in front.īut it also gives you references to distances. No shadow does not give you any 3-dimensional clue.ī. I would give you 1 word, but this word turns into another word later.
