In the television industry, (specifically North America), Graph Pax is an abbreviation sometimes used to refer to Graphics Packages; the set of graphics used for a specific television show. Graphics include lower thirds, graphic show opens, graphic commercial bumpers, in-show transitions, credit beds, and any other chyrons that appear in a show. In the Television industry (especially in North America) lower thirds refers to graphics that take up the lower area of the screen though not necessarily the In Broadcasting, a commercial bumper, ident bumper or break bumper (often shortened to bump) is a brief announcement usually two to 15 seconds

Traditionally a show has one single graphics package created at the head of the season and used throughout. Shows such as news broadcasts regularly update their graphics packages but may still adhere to a general style guide. For example, when The Today Show began broadcasting in HD on September 13, 2006, the show's graphics were forced to become wider to incorporate the entire wider screen aspect ratio.
