Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

in some apps the shadow pass will not look like you expect it too (presuming you expect to have mainly white, and dark shadowed areas). I can't remember if mental ray/maya software are examples of this.
In you comp package though, try merging it over with the mode set to "difference". If it looks correct, your shadow pass is fine
