Pixdither Plugin After Effects 【Exclusive Deal】

Diffuses the color mathematical error to neighboring pixels, creating a more organic, randomized, and photographic grain structure.

PixDither automates this complex process inside After Effects. The plugin works by quantizing your footage—reducing the color information from standard 8 or 16 bits per channel down to extremely restricted palettes. It is capable of recreating the authentic look of classic video hardware as well as more modern simulated environments such as the PICO-8 fantasy console.

If using Custom , link the color slots to an external color palette layer using After Effects color pickers.

: Options like serpentine scans and various diagonal/vertical patterns.

The plugin goes far beyond standard grid pixelation. It includes classic dithering algorithms, such as: Diffuses the color mathematical error to neighboring pixels,

: Includes over 20 classic color schemes , ranging from the MSX and ZX Spectrum to modern simulated environments like PICO-8.

One of the best uses of PixDither is in motion graphics. You can animate the "Offset X" and "Offset Y" parameters. When using ordered dithering (like Bayer patterns), animating the offset creates a scanning, flickering, or CRT-style interference effect. Depending on the shape you use, changing the offset may move the pattern across the screen dynamically.

You can find on platforms like Wunkolo's Itch.io page or as part of specialized editor packs. It is capable of recreating the authentic look

: Works with 8-bit or 16-bit per channel color footage to down-sample it accurately. Workflow for Text & Graphics

If you want to customize your retro look even further, let me know:

: Basic dithering can be simulated without plugins using a combination of Posterize , CC Ball Action , and Threshold . PixDither by Wunkolo
