Default creating a white background

i was just surfing the W.I.P. and i noticed the tread about the bmw z4. I was wandering how you can make such a white background/shadows.
Anyone know more about this?

Create a box. delete all the sides except the top one. When you are in Layout position the camera on the object that you are showing. Then magnify the size of your 1 sided box so you can't see any edges in Layout.
I believe that Sspikedudley used a distant light right on top of the model to give it that shadow underneath.

Hope that helps
