No software application is an island--not even one as powerful as the brand-new Final Cut Pro HD, which lets you capture, edit and output broadcast-quality high-definition video over a single FireWire cable (no extra hardware required!). At some point in the process, you still need a solid 2D still-image editing program as well--which is precisely why Photoshop is the most common software in digital video creators' toolboxes! This long-overdue volume from best-selling author Scott Kelby shows you exactly what you need to know to use Photoshop to edit images, create text effects, and provide color management for your Final Cut Pro projects. In these pages, Scott combines his own easy-going teaching style with tons of illustrations and a slew of real-world techniques for integrating Photoshop into the digital video workflow. From fundamentals like transparency, pixel aspect ratio, and alpha channels to cool capabilities like using the Export Layers to Files command to quickly integrate layered Photoshop artwork into video projects, Scotts got it all covered here!
