...afternoon! I'm in need of some guidance with something I am trying to do in After effects (7).
I have created a fake 3d object using layers - then I have made the object appear to rotate using a null object and a camera.
Now what I need to do is to add a shadow effect that makes the object appear to rotate over a background surface.
Any idea on the best way to do it? Should I try something similar to how I rotated the main 3d object?

Add a light and enable cast shadows on the light.
Check the Materials Options on the layer you want to cast a shadow.
You can read up on it in the online help here:
