When there are multiple light sources illuminating an object,
there will be multiple cast shadows . The light sources can be
different from each other, so keep this in mind when staging
scenes and lighting tests. Knowing that as light sources change,
so do the cast-shadow edges, it is quite possible to have multiple
types of shadows cast by the same object . Remember, the cast-
shadow edge quality is dependent on the type of light. In fig.
2. 26 , the lights casting the shadows of the two boxes are of the
same type and strength. Where the two cast shadows overlap
each other they visually multiply in strength, creating a kind of
doubling effect.
