- Description
- The Pixar picture file, designated with the extension .picio, is a proprietary image file format developed by Pixar. It is specifically designed to support the high-quality, complex image data used in computer animation and digital film production at Pixar Studios. The format is optimized for efficient storage and handling of deep color and high-resolution images, often used in the creation of animated movies and special effects. While not widely used outside of professional animation and film production environments, it plays a crucial role in Pixar's content creation pipeline.
- A PSD file is an image file created by Adobe Photoshop, a professional image-editing program often used to enhance digital photos and create web graphics. It is the native format used to save files in Photoshop. PSD files may include image layers, adjustment layers, layer masks, annotations, file information, keywords, and other Photoshop-specific elements. They are commonly created and shared among graphics professionals.
