Real Shadows — Framer component

About this Component

Add soft, animated shadows that make flat layouts feel more natural and atmospheric. Dappled Shadow creates moving light-and-shadow patterns inspired by leaves, mist, ripples, window light, curtains, and other organic forms.

It works especially well behind hero content, product imagery, editorial sections, and minimal layouts that need more depth without using heavy visual elements.

How to use

Drop the component into your layout and resize it to cover the desired area. Choose a shadow pattern, then customize its color, intensity, scale, movement, and softness directly from the properties panel.

Fine-tune the direction, stretch, contrast, and blend mode to make the effect sit naturally over different backgrounds and compositions.
