Tools for Television Pro is a collection of utilities for Adobe Photoshop tailored specifically to the needs of video and broadcast professionals. Unlike other Photoshop utilities, Tools for Television Pro is not a collection of filters or special effects.

Rather, it's a bundle of workflow enhancements designed to alleviate many of the repetitive tasks that video professionals encounter on a daily basis--from simple functions like building alpha channels to more complex automation tools, such as using the software's built-in spreadsheet for generating multiple title graphics with a single click.

It also includes a tool for capturing individual video frames to Photoshop via FireWire or other capture devices.

What's New:
A new photo to video conversion tool that takes digital images and batch converts them for video with use defined backgrounds and alpha channels. http://www.toolsfortelevision.com/pro/photo-video.php

A new save feature that allows you to directly save your production files right out of Photoshop to an FTP server or graphics device that requires FTP transfers.

A new mini window that with user defined buttons that gives more screen realestate when working on smaller monitors.
