CHECK OUT THE TRAILER
Pixel_Encoder: Unlike Any Other Product On The Market
I know, because I looked. I wanted to create a series of animations just like the ones you see here, but my search for the right tool came up empty. After months of R&D, I’ve done all the work so you can skip straight to the fun part. Executing your vision.
Pixel_Encoder offers functionality like no other.
Pixel_Encoder comes packed with 7 presets to fulfill all your encoding needs. And due to advancements in quantum-pixel technology, all 7 presets can be layered to create never before seen earth-shattering visuals. Pretty cool, right?
Update 1.6 - Available Now!
Update 1.6 brings a new set of features to Pixel_Encoder called the "Chaos" tools. These tools give users a brand new way of adding glitchy distortion to their pixel sequences. Simply enable the chaos tools, crank the parameters to your liking, and watch the chaos unfold.

"But After Effects Scares me!"
Trust me, you got this. I built Pixel_Encoder to be incredibly user friendly, so VFX beginners can jump in and create stunning animations in a matter of seconds.
Still worried? Check out my video tutorial here where I walk you through the process from beginning to end.
Get professional results without professional footage
Pixel_Encoder uses your source footage as a reference to create its own animations. So, you can achieve studio quality results no matter what you’re shooting with—even your cell phone.
