I saw the term 'lving holds' in a job desrciption and I'm not sure what it means. I'm imagining it means a hold at the end of an ident that still has animated elements so it's not just a static frame. Could anyone confirm?

On a related note, perhaps it would be a good thread to start where terminology like this is explained clearly? Often one of the barriers to work is penetrating arcane language. The irony is it's often not used correctly amongst producers but you need to know what they think they mean (an example I can think of was the sudden popularity for the term 'occlusion' amongst 3D producers).

Yep, that sound good to me.
My understanding of 'Living Hold' or 'Moving Hold' is when say a Station Ident has run it set duration eg 10 secs and then the action will settle into gentle movement of some sort.
This lets the Anno run to various lengths with out going to a dreaded freeze frame.
