Beginners

Hi all,

Does anyone know how to achieve this type of texture (low resolution) similar to when you export an animated GIF, in TouchDesigner output?

thank you!

Hi @jmajof,

sorry, it’s not fully clear what your request is. Could you describe in a bit more detail?

Hi Markus,

I want to achieve this type of finish (animated GIF or 8-bit image) as shown in the screenshot, directly in the output processing of my video in TouchDesigner (without having to export it to GIF).

thank you!

Hi @jmajof,

i think you might be looking for a halftone effect.
You can check @elekktronaut tutorial here:

or implement via a GLSL shader in a GLSL TOP. As a template you could check this shadertoy example:

Hope this helps
