As part of this demo, you’ll learn how to use the Quick Selection (in CS4 only) tool and how to export video from Photoshop so that you retain the alpha channel (transparency data) when you bring it into Final Cut Pro.

Note: This tutorial can be used by any version of Final Cut Pro, but editing video requires the extended version of Adobe Photoshop CS3 or CS4.
