FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

Shadows are the dark places where a light source is obstructed by an object.  Image drop shadow is a visual effect that is commonly known as Photoshop image shadow making. Shadow is one of the elements that is necessary to create a natural look of the image. In this technique, the image editors create a translucent layer behind the subject to make it appear slightly elevated. It creates a sense of realism in 2D images. The contrast between the shadow and the subject makes the image the center of attention which is desirable in ecommerce product display.

Creating a drop shading effect in Photoshop is pretty much straightforward for a professional graphic designer. First, you need to select the layer where you want to add shadow. Then you need to choose ‘drop shadow’ from the shadow style dropdown. Now the size, opacity, distance, and angle of the shadow should be adjusted. The color and light tone of the shadow can also be chosen to match the expected effect.

Drop shadow is usually a 2D effect requiring the shadow to fall just behind the subject. On the other hand, a cast shadow is a 3D shadow effect that is comparatively darker. Its position and length are dependent on the light source. Cast shadow is usually used to reflect the directions, position, and intensity of light. On the other hand, drop shadow represents the depth and dimension of the subject. 

Shadow creation service at UCP starts at 39¢. However, the cost may vary based on the type of product and the order volume. Pricing at UK Clipping Path is one of the best considering the experience of the image editors, service, and quality of work.

Creating original shadows and giving natural shadow service is a core job of an image editing company. Apart from Photoshop shadow services, there are some other core image editing services including clipping path service for product photos, color correction, retouching, and background removal. Shadow service is divided into different service categories including floating shadow, changing the color of the shadow, and mirror effect service.
