Glossary
The world of graphic design, video production, and web development is full of technical terms that are often difficult to understand in everyday life. In this glossary, I explain the most important terms from the fields of print, video, and web – concisely, clearly, and without unnecessary jargon. Whether you want to learn about prepress, video editing, or web design: you'll find the right explanation here.
Missing a term you'd like explained? Just send it my way and I'll add it to the list.
GIF
Short for "Graphics Interchange Format" – an image format that supports short, looping animations without sound. Widely used for simple animations, reaction images, and lightweight web graphics, though it produces larger files than modern video formats for the same content.
