Preparing Broadcast-Quality Image Exports for TV
TV producers prepare images for on-air display including lower-third graphics, full-screen photos, and background plates. Broadcast specifications differ significantly from web and print requirements.
Workflow
- Obtain source images for broadcast use
- Use the Image Resizer to create HD (1920x1080) and UHD (3840x2160) versions
- Use the Image Cropper to ensure the subject falls within broadcast-safe margins
- Use the Image Converter to save in broadcast-preferred formats (PNG or TIFF)
- Verify the image meets the broadcast system's color space requirements
- Deliver the broadcast-ready images to the graphics operator
