Tight Frame Shadow

Autodesk Smoke Tips & Tricks - Tight Frame Shadow

Say, you receive a graphic logo in Jpeg, the logo is filling out the whole frame, it's very tigth to the edge of the frame.

When you add a soft shadow, the shadow will be cropped out at the edge of the frame.
To solve the problem, just add a front source/matte source, then size it down inside the front/matte source.
Now, there's no more edge problem.
