Hi All,

Currently I am working on a Comet coming from above the camera and landing in the distance of the background Image I have applied. At first I just created a background plain with the image, which allowed me to cast Shadow Matte onto the image, but did not render.

After that I tried making the Background Image part of the camera's view, but now it wont even render the shadow cast from the Comet onto the ground.

I have attached the file, if anyone can please have a look and let me know what I am doing wrong as soon as possible, that would be great.

I am still relatively new to all this, so apologies in advance if it's a complete Noob mistake.

Thanks a lot!
