An original Canvas2D photo texture with 25 raster modes, editable tone, coverage, background, tint, blur and nine post-effects. Replace the source image and animate wave, pulse, shimmer, ripple or flicker. Full-main preview and PNG, JPEG, MP4, PNG sequence and web-pack exports share the same renderer. The supplied 21st.dev dancer photo is bundled as the default; provenance is documented in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md.
How this texture works
Vignette Bloom turns your image into an animated photo mosaic with a soft bloom and a dark vignette. Render mode is mosaic here, but the same picture can be redrawn in 25 modes, from characters and dither to dots, braille or hexagons. A wave animation moves the cells, and post effects such as Bloom and Vignette finish the frame. The panel also offers blur types, tint, background modes and more post effects.
Tips
- Render mode switches the cell style. Try characters, dots or halfblocks on the same picture.
- Cell size sets the size of each cell. Smaller cells keep the picture; larger ones make the pattern the subject.
- Animation style picks the motion: wave, pulse, shimmer, ripple or flicker. Set Animation to off for a still frame.
- Background mode chooses what sits behind the cells: a solid colour, a blurred copy of the picture, the original or nothing.
Questions
How do I make an animated mosaic from a photo?
Load your picture into the Image slot. This preset draws it as a mosaic with a wave animation. Change Render mode for a different cell style and Motion intensity for how strongly it moves.
Can I use my own characters in the mosaic?
Yes. Set Render mode to characters, choose custom in Character set and type your characters into Custom characters.
