Resolution
Resolution refers to the level of detail and clarity in digital images and videos. It's like the sharpness and crispness of what you see on screen, measured by how many pixels (tiny dots that make up the image) are displayed. Common resolution terms you might see in job descriptions include 4K, 1080p, or HD. When someone mentions working with high resolution in their resume, they're saying they can create or handle detailed, professional-quality visual content that looks clear and sharp on modern screens.
