(sorry for the presentation and editing but you are trying and thinking how to make a video presentation) but well in case you are a beginner and you don't know how to make a shading even if it is the simplest thing this video is for you, in just 5 seconds (and to my own criteria and techniques) you will be able to create and manipulate the shadows and the orientation of the light with a few movements and from then on develop them to make them more complex and realistic (for which it is already a decision to improve it)
in case you are wondering the environment is NOT a wall, I just did it to test the back shadow
I hope it works for you and if you don't understand, leave your doubts in the comments and I will gladly answer them.

1.- If you plan to handle a png image, it is recommended that it not have a background (I will explain the reason for this later) and if you want it to have a background you can do it but it would be optional for the following steps, the screenshots below give you a better example.

2.- We will duplicate the layer of the image where the girl appears and we will darken the duplicated layer with the Edit->Tonal Correction->Brightness/Contrast tool

3.- Before moving on to the shape of the shadows, we will first see the basic orientations if we apply this dark version behind the original image and then obtain these results:

I swear that this can be useful for when there is an environment with a wall and you do not know where to put the direction of the light, but it is also necessary to improve the concept of shadows for future drawings, this is only a basic level concept

4.- For the light composition (we will use the left side as an example) we must put the dark image on top of the original image slightly to the right as a starting point, something like this:

5.- Now that we know where we want to put the light, finally we will use the "Gradient" tool for the focus effect (specifically square or circular)

but before putting them you have to make sure that they are not on the same layer as the others, so you have to make 2 layers, one square and one circular

6.- for "Layer 2" apart from putting the square gradient, we must make a combination mode "Multiplication"

7.- crearemos el mismo proceso pero con la circular y sin multiplicar

oh if you're wondering i forgot to tell you to lower the opacity on the dark layer

8.- To finish we will erase the parts where we have to let the light pass and leave the shadow behind, but it is also essential to look at the wrinkles and the location of the body parts.

and as shown above, the eraser has to be like a type of spray for more texture.
well that's it, this is just the start of a lot of shadow/light texture tutorials
good for everyone!
