- 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 TIFF file is a graphics container that stores raster images. It may contain high-quality graphics that support color depths from 1 to 24-bit and supports both lossy and lossless compression. TIFF files also support multiple layers and pages.
