Mosaic

Generates a pixelated version of the source clip. Adjust the size and shape of the blocks using the Pixel Frequency and Pixel Rel Width parameters. Increase the Smooth Colors parameter to cause the colors of nearby pixel blocks to be more consistent, and less flickery over time.

Inputs:

Source:  The clip to be processed.
        

Parameters:

Pixel Frequency:   Default: 40,  Range: 1 or greater.
The frequency of the pixel blocks. Increase for more numerous, smaller pixels.

Pixel Rel Height:   Default: 1,  Range: 0.01 or greater.
The relative height of the pixel blocks. Increase for taller blocks, decrease for wider ones.

Pixel Shift:   X & Y,   Default: [0 0],  Range: any.
The translation of the pixel pattern.

Smooth Colors:   Default: 0,  Range: 0 or greater.
Blurs the source before pixelating. Increase to cause the colors of nearby pixel blocks to be more consistent, and less flickery over time.

Wrap:   X & Y,  Popup menu,  Default: [REFLECT REFLECT].
Determines the method for accessing outside the borders of the source image.
NO:  gives black beyond the borders.
TILE:  repeats a copy of the image.
