The Pixels Effect Made Easy With The New Voxel Preset


Check out this incredible Preset by Robert Leger called Voxel. It’s based on the pixel effect seen in this popular video by One More Production aptly called PIXELS. Robert’s preset makes it super easy to turn models into pixelated objects. The effect even has a “MoDynamics” button that instantly ads physics to your model. Really fun stuff. Check out his tutorial on how to use it and give it a try.

While you are there, check out some of Robert’s other tutorials. He has a really great style of presenting and always makes great looking renders. I can’t wait to see more from him.

    Looks awesome. How do you get those smooth floating camera moves? Is there a wiggle expression equivalent in C4D?

  6. arleksey says:

    Great! Last nigth i was thinking is anyone brings tool to copy THE-PIXELS effect. At last!

  7. That looks great, though I wish the physics allowed the car to bounce up and down like a car with blocky wheels would do!

    hi there this is amazing
    but i was trying it out and it didn’t work with text :s

    • Steve B says:

      @Stigg

      It works fine with text, tested it out last night. You have to make sure your text (extruded) is made editable first.

  16. Jeff says:

    Yea saw this a couple days ago its cool :) .

    Thanks @Robert Leger.

  17. Stigg says:

  28. Aaron C. says:

    Hey has anyone figured out the bug that won’t keep the check box for the activation toggle. For me, I click on the activate preset and it just switches off. I’m following the tutorial pretty closely and can’t figure it out.

  29. Jeremy Frye says:

    I am sure everyone is wondering this…..

    So if I wanted to use a texture (Design for the front of a product box – logo – etc.) how do I get a material to stick over all the little boxes so when I have them spill or explode each little box has its own chunk of the material mapped on it. I have tried different forms of selection tags with no results. Is this even possible within this? Or do I need to sort it out in another manor?

    Thanks!

    Jeremy
