      Hi Shyam,

      I’ve just taken a look at both the video stream and the download, and everything seems to be working fine here. Could you check again for me, and if you still have any problems just let me know and I’ll see what I can do!

      Thanks,

      Matt

    You can render alpha masks for sky and other parts, so you don’t have to cut them manually in Ps (especially useful for animation).

    Thanks for sharing these. The effects are amazing. I run a professional lighting shop in the UK and the way in which light used to work in graphics always used to make me laugh but not now new effects are amazing.
