Chapter 4, Setting Up Realtime Effects with Adobe Premiere Pro
Creating a shadow effect
The Matrox shadow effect lets you project a realistic shadow from any source
containing key information, such as DVEs and titles with an alpha channel. You
can tint the shadow, and position, scale, and rotate it to match the angle of the
surface on which it is cast. Applying blur to the shadow can simulate the realistic
look of diffused light being projected on the source.

Note
If you are working in HD, the Matrox shadow effect may require
rendering when combined with other effects.

¡ Important
Either your source clip or an effect applied to your source clip must
contain alpha key information in order to create a shadow effect. For example, if
you apply a shadow effect to a clip with no alpha key information and scale it
down using Adobe’s Motion effect, you won’t see any shadow because the
Motion effect is the last effect applied, and there is no alpha key information to
create the shadow effect. Whereas, if you apply a Matrox 3D DVE to the same
clip and then apply the shadow effect, you will be able to see the shadow because
the Matrox 3D DVE effect contains alpha information.
