After effects lighting and shadow test.

I had originally planned to draw all the shadows coming from the trees but I realised these would not move very nicely or easily with the camera motion. We were shown lights in after effects in our tutorial so I thought it could work quite well for this animation. It was here that I learned that the shadows work really well if the 3D layers were put together with a good distance between each other. I also found that moving a light meant I could get moving dynamic shadows that made the scene feel more animated. I will definitely being using lights a lot more through out this animation.
