Drop shadow.

Place a soft shadow behind text, graphics, or the visible edges of a layer.

Soft shadows give three flat paper shapes a gentle sense of separation. The shadows follow each moving silhouette through the Drop Shadow layer style. Geometry, motion, offset, blur, spread and colour remain editable.

A prompt to start from

Use Tesseract. Create an eight-second Tesseract paper-depth study. Arrange three overlapping white, Sky and Meadow paper rectangles at different angles on a Bone field, with a neutral Exposure title on the left. Use actual stacked Drop Shadow layer styles on the paper silhouettes. Soften their shadows to 42 px over the opening three seconds while each paper floats only 10 px. Keep branding unstyled and leave generous outer margins. Preserve shapes, style offsets, shadow colour, spread and blur.

Tesseract plugins and runtime downloads are coming soon.
