Halftone Dots is my latest After Effects tool. It works like a preset to give you a totally authentic newspaper or magazine look for your footage or just a cool graphical look. What’s more it’s totally adjustable and works with moving images or stills.
Halftone Dots is a fully procedural effect. That means it uses no prerenders and no third party plug-ins. It’s pure After Effects. Just drop in your still or moving imagery and adjust the sliders to control the look, then render. It couldn’t be easier!
