overlaying bitmaps

I am trying to create a movie by overlaying frames on a background and then saving each frame. Most of the overlaid frame is transparent. I have done the overlaying with the e.graphics.drawimage, but need to get them back to a bitmap to save them as .bmp or .tif.

Alternatively, I can save them from a bitmap, but can't overlay them. How could I either convert the drawimage picture to a bitmap or overlay in a bitmap or could I save the drawimage picture as a .bmp or .tif

Easy, please--my last graphics program was done in VB5. Thanks.
