What Is Dither Decay?
Dither Decay is an effect plugin for Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro. Apply it to any footage, and it converts the image into an authentic dithered output using algorithms sourced from early gaming console hardware. Easily tap into the lo-fi pixel art and analogue degradation aesthetic with a grungy, textural wash that gives your projects real character.
Multiple Dithering Methods — Select one of several authentic dithering algorithms, each producing distinctly different texture. Mix and match with palette options to land on a look that's entirely your own.
11 Palettes + Custom Colors – Choose from 11 hand-built color palettes or define your own with the custom palette selector. No weird file formats. No confusing interfaces. Just pick your colors and go.
Detail Control — Set detail low for a gnarly, fully pixelated look or high for a subtle textural wash. Fine-tune your output to land anywhere on the spectrum between full abstraction and gentle noise.
Fast & Intuitive — Dither Decay is built to get you from idea to output as fast as possible. Achieve great results right out of the box, with optional advanced controls available whenever you need them.
