'''Generated Media''' ~~is media~~ that is~~... generated~~ by a program. ~~This can be~~ anything from solid colors to grids to advanced 3D fractal patterns~~. But what is important is that this is ''media'' that then can be used elsewhere~~.

'''Generated Media''' are any piece of footage that is ''created by a program'' (usually one's video editor of choice), rather than pre-existing footage that was imported into the program. Examples of generated media include anything from solid colors to grids to advanced 3D fractal patterns.

=Usage=

Simply generate the media in your program of choice, then add it to your video. Most editors (like [[Vegas]] and [[Premiere]]) have ways to generate simple media in-house.

<small>"Red, Yellow, Green, Red, Blue, Blue, Blue..." - Ludwig Von Drake</small>

As simple as it sounds~~, creates~~ a ~~solid~~ color ~~that fills the frame~~.

As simple as it sounds; a single color.

==Grids==

A ~~grid~~.

A collection of evenly spaced shapes, usually squares, separated by a border.

See [[Noise]].

Static can mean a wide variety of things, but often means black and white patterns of random pixels that change with every frame (like an analog TV with no signal.) See [[Noise]] for more.
