AE Tutorial for Animated Logo with Dynamic Shadows

Here is an interesting tutorial for an animated logo for AE with Mikey.   Mikey Borup gives a thorough explanation of how how he created his new animated logo but the most interesting thing about the tutorial is the approach he uses for the shadows.   The shadows are created so that they are dynamic and animate along with the logo but really go a long way in adding a professional polish to the animation.  This is a cool effect and have not seen it created like this before using a directional blur along with a matte.  From what I can see Mikey doesn't have a blog but posts his tutorials on Youtube exclusively.  Check out
his channel and watch the tutorial below.
