How to make shadows on text or shapes:
1. insert the text/object you are going to use. (Make sure the alpha is 100%)
2. Copy and paste the text using ctrl-c and ctrl-v, the copied object/text should be in the exact same place as the original.
3. Select the text/object that is at the back (At the bottom of the timeline). Click on the Rotate or Skew tool on the tool bar.
4. Rollover the top-center dot. You should get an arrow like this: <---->. With an image beside it. Click, hold and drag Either to the right or left hand side.
You now have the main shadow.
5. Open the Properties toolbox for the shadow and set its alpha to 50% (Or just change the color to a lighter one).
6. Position the shadow so the bottom tips are just touching that of the main text.
And there you have it, Easy shadows!
