    I'm going to try this shadow catcher tonight. Great find.

    The composite tag works, it's just a crazy work around with mutipass renders of each frame just to get a shadow. Then there is production involved to select the alpha and extract it in PS, easier in AFX of course. For some reason, getting a shadow casted onto a floor/plane and hiding it from the camera also hides the shadow. A shadow catcher should be stock in C4D material/alphas, but still isn't. I know it's straight forward and available in max/maya.
