Pixelate
Turns into coarse blocks, then switches. The picture turns into coarser and coarser blocks, switches at the coarsest point, then sharpens again.

How the movement works
Use it for game-like, retro or digital scene changes, or to blur something out as the scene switches.
- 01Field scene → city scene → field, 2.35 s each. At 0.2–1.9 s (1.7 s) the block size steps up and back down through 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11, 15, 20, 27 and 36 px (coarsest at the midpoint, 1.05 s).
- 02The first half shows the old scene and the second half the new one; the swap happens at the coarsest step.
- 03Method: shrink the frame to width ÷ block size with smoothing on, then scale it back up with smoothing off.
Prompt
Use a pixelate transition: the mosaic gets coarser over 0.6 s and the scene changes at the coarsest point.
