VTV Studio's Favorite Tools & Extensions

Chrome Extensions for Web Browsing and Image Handling

• Go Full Page Extension: Anh Đăng, leader team editor, uses this to capture full website screenshots, including scrolling content. This is useful for documenting entire web pages.
• CSS Peeper: This extension allows designers and web developers to inspect website elements, including fonts, colors, and images. It helps identify the specific fonts used (e.g., "Huawei dùng Marop chuẩn luôn") and extract color palettes.
• Image Saver (Custom-Built): Em Hải created this extension using ChatGPT. It streamlines image downloading by allowing users to select a specific folder and then automatically save images to that folder by simply copying and pasting the image link. This ensures organized file management, preventing clutter in the default downloads folder.
• Xer: A software (not a Chrome extension) used for downloading videos from YouTube and other platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and various international video sites. Created by a Vietnamese developer, it requires format conversion after downloading to be compatible with editing software. Anh Đăng bought the license for $6 to support the developer.

Tools for Designers on macOS

• Google Drive: Used for quick file sharing and storage, allowing team members to easily access and collaborate on files.
• Drive Phone: A font management tool that helps designers organize and preview fonts. It allows creating font collections (e.g., "phông Việt hóa," "phông tiếng Anh") and previewing text in different fonts (e.g., "xịp phương"). It integrates with Adobe software like Photoshop, allowing users to quickly apply selected fonts directly within the application.
• [Unspecified Name]: A tool for managing and renaming images. It allows users to drag and drop files, rename them based on customizable formats, and categorize them using AI-powered content recognition. It can identify image content, such as dates, categories, or even actors.

Editing Tools and Extensions

• Transition and Sound Effect Packs: Em Trung Đắc uses free packs of transitions, text resets, and sound effects to enhance video editing in Premier. These packs provide pre-made elements that can be easily dragged and dropped into the timeline.
• Anti-Phishing Extension: This Chrome extension warns users about potentially malicious websites by displaying a notification when a risky site is visited. The extension relies on user ratings to identify and block unsafe websites.

Design-Focused Extensions

• Color Picker: Em Huyền uses this extension to identify and copy the exact colors from any webpage. By clicking on a specific area of the page, the extension retrieves the color code and automatically copies it to the clipboard, allowing designers to easily use the same colors in their designs.
• Dark Mode Extension: This extension applies a dark mode to websites that don't natively support it. It intelligently distinguishes between text and images, ensuring that only the background and interface elements are darkened, while images retain their original colors.
• Forest: A focus app based on the Pomodoro technique. It allows users to set timers for focused work sessions and block distracting websites (e.g., Facebook) during those sessions. Completing a session virtually "plants a tree," encouraging users to stay focused.

Additional Extensions for Content Creators

• Image Downloader: Em Trang uses an extension to download images from websites in various formats and sizes.
• YouTube Screenshot Tool: This extension captures high-resolution screenshots from YouTube videos, preserving the original video quality (e.g., 4K).
• Email Tracker: This extension tracks whether recipients have opened and read emails, providing insights into their engagement.
• Image Downloader (Việt hóa): Minh Ngọc uses this extension to download images from websites, especially when the default download option provides low-quality images. It allows downloading the original, high-resolution version of the image.
• Image Format Converter: This extension allows saving images in different formats (e.g., JPEG, PNG, WebP), ensuring compatibility with various editing software.
• Email Notification and Management: This extension provides email notifications and organizes emails for quick access.
• Shazam: Used to identify music playing in the background while browsing the web.

Wikipedia Enhancement Tool

• Wikivan: Em Long Ngọng uses this extension to enhance the Wikipedia interface. It transforms the standard Wikipedia layout into a cleaner, more organized format with clear sections and AI-powered tools for summarizing content, creating timelines, and chatting. It also allows customization of the interface, including dark mode and font changes.

File Conversion Tool

• File Converter: Anh Chu Tú uses this tool, which is integrated into the operating system, to quickly convert files from one format to another (e.g., WebP to JPEG). It eliminates the need for third-party websites or applications for file conversion.
