Using Still Images and Graphics in Your Sequences
Still images are commonly used in motion graphics sequences, custom titles created in
another application, and illustrative graphics such as charts and diagrams. They are also
used as placeholder graphics during editing (before a finished shot is delivered to your
editing system) and as background images for multilayer compositing. For more
