ANN: Cinematte for Mac/Photoshop Released

For Immediate Release

Richmond, VA -- Richmond, VA -- The must-have PhotoShop plug-in is now
available for the Apple Macintosh platform! The Macintosh version has all
the features of the original plug-in - plus several important enhancements!

Cinematte is an advanced plug-in for PhotoShop that can automatically create
masks and clipping paths using blue/green screen technology. Support for
PhotoShop's Layers and Actions allows batch processing and multiple layers.
Allows blue or green screen background for input and can output layer masks,
mattes, transparencies and keyed foregrounds.

Enhancements for the Macintosh version include tighter integration into
PhotoShop, improved virtual memory handling for large images, and faster
operation overall!


A Snap for Photographers

Photographers love Cinematte because it allows them to composite backgrounds
in later to suit the client's needs. Cinematte's controls make creating
mattes and transparencies simple.


A Must-Have for the Print Industry

Creating catalogs, brochures or flyers? Cinematte automates what used to be
a laborious task of creating clipping paths. Now you can simply use
Cinematte to generate a transparency and either use it directly to composite
with background layers or turn it into a path with PhotoShop's Paths
Palette!


Easy to Use

A PhotoShop standard interface, with friendly online help, lets you create
transparencies easily and quickly. Simple, straightforward, and standard
controls let you work in an integrated real time preview so you can see the
results of your work instantly!
