I've been practicing placing text onto realistic pictures for a little bit now and I wanted to do one for a car pic instead of a flat road for once. The only problem is, I only know how to do ambient occlusions that give a little shadow around my text. But as you can see in the picture I'll include below, the car cleary has an angled shadow that I can't seem to recreate for my text! Anybody know how to make it happen? I tried spotlights, regular lights, and even sun. Nothing works! Please help, I really want this project to turn out good. Here's the image:

Okay use 'Light" and in the bottom right corner when you clicked on light you should see shadowing mess around with that.
