(Not to be confused with Pixilation, which is the Stop Motion animation of live actors.) Video editors alter a section of the screen to hide something by averaging or mildly scrambling the color values of the image across larger areas than the original pixels, producing a blocky effect that obscures detail but retains much of the original hue and contour information. Used to blur out faces (of criminals, crime victims, and undercover police officers; people who didn't sign releases to allow a show to use their likeness), offensive body parts (mostly breasts on women, the middle finger when used as a rude gesture, and anything below the waist on both sexes — that includes front and back), obscene words and written messages (mostly on T-shirts, billboards, and signs), trademarked product names and logos which have not paid for placement (MTV does this a lot to their rap videos and on most of their reality shows, like The Real World), extremely graphic injuries (particularly the bloody stumps left behind when someone loses an arm or a leg or wide open head wounds), depictions of marijuana (be they the actual leaf or a rolled joint that's been lit and smoked), and even the years on closed-circuit date stamps (done a lot on reality shows that focus on police chases and crime, such as America's Dumbest Criminals or World's Wildest Police Videos). A black square is still used in some cases. When played for laughs, the censor box or pixellation instantly becomes a Gag Censor (for example, superimposing a crown over the crotch of a streaker during a royal visit in Britain). The whole screen is lightly pixellated (or blurred) in some cases, usually for a reconstruction scene in documentaries about battles. 1 It's interesting that a movie may have given impetus for another practice: blurring people's lips when they say an obscenity that has been "beeped" over. In the movie The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas his deputy tells the sheriff how a local TV station broadcast a tirade the sheriff made when he came in contact with the reporter: "They bleeped you out but my momma read your lips on every 'hell', 'goddamn' and 'shit'." So now, a number of programs not only 'bleep' someone's bad word, they also blur the area of their lips so you can't read them. Large pixels look plain ugly because of the chunkiness, so the pixels may be made smaller— perhaps so small as to just be a "fog" over the offensive material. Fogging like this may be a reversible transformation. A sufficiently skilled person with the appropriate software can, given a blurred image, reconstruct the original without blurring. Very large pixels make the reversal more difficult, and a solid block is of course impossible to reverse (as anyone attempting Enhance Button on a blurry image in real life will probably have found out).note Addendum 2019: And now neural nets not only beat you at Chess and Go, they can also decensor images, even those with larger censor bars. For Science! In return, many anime have begun to use it for non-censoring purposes, covering an object or such, and letting the viewers' imaginations run wild deciding what it is. This can also be used as a form of Innocent Innuendo, making something look perverted when it's (later revealed to be) really not. Compare Censor Steam and Censor Box. |

There was a MADtv sketch where a man (Will Sasso) goes to his doctor (Aries Spears) with a bad case of pixellation which appears whenever he takes off his pants. The doctor tells the man that pixellation is normal and commonly found on genitals, women's breasts, and middle fingers when shown on network television. | |

The Simpsons: "Alone Again, Natura-Diddly", Homer videotapes Flanders showering as part of his dating video. Judging by how long the pixels extend, Flanders has nothing to be ashamed of. Also used "The Springfield Connection": When Marge goes to investigate a domestic dispute involving Principal Skinner and his mom, Skinner tells the camera man to digitally blur out his face to conceal his identity. Another episode had a horrified cameraman exclaim, "There isn't enough pixels in the world!" after seeing Homer's naked ass. In "Pixelated and Afraid", Homer and Marge's privates are pixelated when they get stranded in the woods without clothes. It's worth noting that Homer's "man-boobs" are censored. A funnier note is that the title was actually called that in reference. |

MythBusters will (over)do this with the names of hazardous chemicals used in experiments that they don't want the viewers to know and, summarily, use to recreate the experiment. Also, when part of the process that uses such chemicals is needed to be stated in a scene, a variety of humorous sounds (from a cat's meow to a firetruck siren) will play to block over the chemical's name, and - if the Mythbuster's face is being shown as they explain what they're doing, their mouths will be masked over by a graphic of whatever sound is being used to cover the chemical name, just in case any of the viewers can read lips. This was lampshaded by Adam: "This ingredient is made of blur. Ha! And this has blur in it too. Blur is very dangerous. You don't wanna mix blur with blur." He lampshaded it again when going into a swear-heavy myth, noting that blurring the footage costs money so to save everyone the trouble, he's making mouthguards for people to wear to cover up their foul mouths without the need for editing. Sound Effect Bleeps are okay, though; "bleeps are cheap." Exaggerated for the MB episodes used in the new Science Channel show Head Rush. Even the writing on Adam's shirts gets blurred out. But then, the Science Channel is a commercial-free zone. It's probably simpler to blur out anything that might qualify as Product Placement than risk a lawsuit. |

Subverted in the manga version of the sixth episode of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (and in the uncut version of the episode proper). The Monster of the Week has captured all the women and children and is displaying them on a monitor to Kamina, with pixels covering the necessary areas. When their safety is threatened Kamina exits Gurren on the sole condition that the pixels are removed. When the baddie complies Kamina is infuriated to see that what the pixels covered were, in fact, the towels that the girls had been wearing the entire time. The only one who actually deserved to be pixeled was Gimmy, a little boy. | |

In an episode of 7 Days (1998), pixellation is used to cover up the relevant bits during a college streaking event for exactly the opposite of its official purpose. Unfortunately, the pixellation isn't thorough enough to hide the fact that none of the actors were actually nude. | |

In Canada's Worst Driver, stop signs cover the mouths of the contestants when they swear (along with the accompanying bleep). Punk rocker Jakob and his nominator Stacy from season 5 got anarchy symbols instead.

Rick and Morty tends to do this to genitals everytime the scenery isn't covering them up. Other times, the camera is angled so they're not visible. In the censored version of "A Rickconvenient Mort", Summer and Rick's mouths, along with Rick's hands, are pixelated as they pretend to "eat ass". In the uncensored version, this scene has no pixelation, but an alien's "elbow titties" are still pixelated later on. |

Spoofed, like everything else ever, in Excel♡Saga - beautiful but scarily perceptive Misaki is displayed at first with a black bar across her eyes. "I'm not a criminal," she deadpans. The black bar vanishes, to be replaced instantly by a pixel grid. "And I'm not," she continues, "in an adult video, either." The pixels vanish, and her face is revealed for the first time in the series. The manga occasionally uses pixellation for lawyer-friendly cameos. Volume 19 had GojÅ� ShiÅ�ji wearing a pair of circular black ears, which were obscured with pixellation. An earlier volume featured a similarly-obscured tortoise-dragon creature, as part of a joke about why "Teriha" kept getting kidnapped. |

The Daily Show uses pixelation to obscure things that would otherwise upset the censors, such as Jon giving the finger. A Running Gag during the Bush presidency, based on the way that the Vice President's residence was blurred out on Google Maps, was that "Dick Cheney can pixelate things just by touching them." One segment about Jason Jones getting a vasectomy included various bizarre pixellated shots of Jason celebrating his times with his genitals, and is then averted when we see the procedure with a shot of Jones's completely uncensored scrotum (though not his penis). |

Homestuck: Equius' posters of "fine art" (muscular, naked horse men) have huge patches of pixellation on them. Played for laughs in the Openbound sequence, where Horuss holds up a dildo and the pixellation takes a while to catch up to actually censor it properly. |

The Walking with Beasts series documents the rise of mammals post-dinosaur all the way up to humans. In one scene it shows protohumans engaged in the revolutionary new method of having sex face-to-face rather than back to front, and apparently they're close enough to humans for this new method to be blurred out. | |

The Order of the Stick: Whenever a character is nude (which is usually Elan), pixilation is used for covering the person's genitals. Rule of Funny applies because it's a Stick-Figure Comic, and stickmen usually aren't known for having genitals. In a flashback during Start of Darkness, a young Eugene training under Fyron casts an Illusion spell, which lowers the panel's resolution. Fyron comments that now is a good time to teach Eugene about image resolution. |

WWE pixellates its previous logos from when it was the World Wrestling Federation when showing archival footage; this is because of a lawsuit from the World Wildlife Fund over the use of the initials. The WWF also used pixellation as part of one of their storylines, when Ric Flair showed up with a title belt, claiming to be the "Real World Heavyweight Champion". The belt in question was actually the NWA World Heavyweight Championship, which Flair had held at the time he jumped to the WWF, and which the NWA had refused to return his security deposit on, so he decided to keep the belt instead. After Flair was forced by court order to return the belt, the story continued onwards, with Flair using a heavily-pixellated WWF Tag Team Championship belt in place of the NWA belt (a lampshade was hung on this by WWF president Jack Tunney, who claimed he had ordered the pixellation since the WWF did not recognize Flair's belt as an actual championship, and thus will no longer show it on TV). |

Saints Row: The Third continues the crotch-pixellation policy described above, however includes a partial workaround by allowing the in-game purchase of pasties which can be made flesh-colored (and with a dark centre to simulate nipples, yet!). This removes the pixellation on breasts of any size. Flesh-colored thongs can be purchased to simulate lower nudity, but not as convincingly. The streaking mini-game still features full pixellation. The pixellation of clothing worn with no underwear has been removed, except in the case of skirts and high-slit dresses that would normally reveal the naughty bits (donning the aforementioned thong is the workaround). | |

Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu: In one episode, the class president tries to explain to Kaname why Sousuke had a reasonable excuse for blowing up the school's shoe lockers when he noticed they'd been tampered with. He asks Kaname to imagine what her reaction would be if she discovered a suspicious package in the mail with a "foul stench" and that's slightly damp. While he's doing this, Kaname has an Imagine Spot of her coming to the door and discovering the package—she drops it on the ground, which causes the package to open slightly. The contents are pixellated, but between the president's description and the reddish color of the pixels the viewer sees enough to be squicked out. In another episode, Kaname is confronted by some thugs and pulls out a whistle, threatening to blow it three times and summon Bonta-kun. One of the thugs says "Just like Ambassador *BLEEP*ma!", complete with a pixelated image of said character. In yet another episode, after Sosuke incorrectly assumes Kaname was kidnapped, he wonders what her kidnappers might do to her. The following Imagine Spot is pixellated, giving the impression she's being assaulted by unidentifiable things, but pay close enough attention and you'll notice she's merely getting tickled all over with feathers. |

The Sims, both the original and The Sims 2. The game creators felt the need to pixellate the whole bodies (in the original) or just "obscene parts" (in the sequel) of The Sims. All of this despite the fact that Sims use the toilet through their clothing, and, as anyone who's been able to turn off the censorship pixels knows, a naked Sim is about as naughty as a naked Barbie or Ken doll—they don't even have nipples, much less genitals. However, since you can easily add custom skins, it was literally a matter of days from the release of either game before this "problem" was corrected. And the noninteractivity of "Woohooing" got changed quickly too. As Copy Protection on The Sims 4, everything gets pixelated if a player is playing a pirated copy. |

Ample usage of this in Gintama is probably the only reason why it's still considered suitable for its age demographic, with the sheer amount of Male Frontal Nudity it blocks. It's also used to tone down the gross factor of poop and vomit to the point where it becomes completely comical and to censor the faces of copyrighted characters. On one occasion, the characters play a video game that pixels out someone vomiting, turning the pixelated shapes into Tetris blocks. Exaggerated in the story arc that has everyone suffering from a "Freaky Friday" Flip. Hasegawa somehow transforms from a normal pixellated pile of poop into a pixellated, anthropomorphic pile of poop using his Yamazaki-possessed sunglasses. Then he gets pixellated vomit everywhere after witnessing a pixellated case of explosive diarrhea, which leads to Hijikata complaining about not being able to see anything due to all the pixels on top of pixels and somehow turns everyone into pixellated piles of poop. |

In the final storyline of Spider-Man/Deadpool, the art pixellates Silk Flipping the Bird at Wade. Wade, who has just lost his Fourth-Wall Observer status, freaks out because he can't see the pixellation any more; he just sees the reality of the Marvel Universe, where she's visibly flipping the bird. And not even in a MAX book! | |

The Boondocks: In "The Trial of R. Kelly", the eyes of the girl who was urinated upon by R. Kelly are always seen pixelated out (the rest of her face is visible though). In "A Date with the Health Inspector", Tom DuBois had a nightmare about dropping the soap in a prison shower. An inmate calling himself "The Health Inspector" demands that he bend over and pick it up. The pixellation went down to floor. note It should be noted that this only applies to the TV version. The DVD version does not have that luxury! |

The two cops come to arrest a giant centipede alien and his face is blurred out (much like on the show to protect the identities of the would-be criminals).

A strip of Hetalia: Axis Powers does this to Hong Kong's art, resulting in this little line said by a furiously blushing China: Another strip uses it not to pixellate something obscene, but rather something copyrighted. China shows up in a Halloween costume that is pixellated out but heavily implied to be Mickey Mouse. When South Korea complains, China begins throwing pieces of the mosaic at him. |

On The Amazing World of Gumball, Gumball's crotch is pixellated every time he's naked (the sole exception being in "The Dream", where a black Censor Box is used instead).

Parodied in the Rooster Teeth Shorts episode "Blur", in which anything that can be considered even remotely offensive, obscene, or morally questionable in any way gets blurred out, even in real life. At first this includes brand logos (since some people don't like Product Placement), then tattoos (morally questionable, but also results in Geoff losing use of his arms due to his sleeve tattoos), a cat (some people are allergic to cats), and finally Geoff's face (because Gus jokingly said "your face is obscene" after he commented on Joel's Cluster F-Bomb; this also causes Geoff to go blind). | |

The WWF also used pixellation as part of one of their storylines, when Ric Flair showed up with a title belt, claiming to be the "Real World Heavyweight Champion". The belt in question was actually the NWA World Heavyweight Championship, which Flair had held at the time he jumped to the WWF, and which the NWA had refused to return his security deposit on, so he decided to keep the belt instead. After Flair was forced by court order to return the belt, the story continued onwards, with Flair using a heavily-pixellated WWF Tag Team Championship belt in place of the NWA belt (a lampshade was hung on this by WWF president Jack Tunney, who claimed he had ordered the pixellation since the WWF did not recognize Flair's belt as an actual championship, and thus will no longer show it on TV). | |

In the Rurouni Kenshin manga, Creepy Crossdresser Kamatari flashes Misao when she mistakes him for a girl. He is shown from behind, pulling his kimono open and up, and there's some pixellation over his naughty bits. | |

Pop Team Epic uses pixelation both as a gag and as a way to skirt around featuring characters and parodies from particularly lawyer-unfriendly material. | |

Drawn Together: Parodied in the first episode, where Princess Clara couldn't tell that Foxxy was flipping her off because her middle finger was blurred... then realized it when she extended her middle finger and saw that it got blurrednote this also happens on the DVD version, even though the DVD is said to be uncut and uncensored. In this case, the pixellation is only used as part of a visual gag. | |

In The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle, as the title characters and Karen are apprehended by John Goodman playing a sheriff, the group is filmed in a parody of COPS (1989), complete with Rocky and Bullwinkle having their faces pixellated. This being Rocky and Bullwinkle, they immediately draw attention to it, and have to ask for the effect to be removed. | |

In episode 22 of Sgt. Frog, they put a black stripe over the Keronians' eyes and distort their voices to conceal their identities. However, they're still easily identified by their bright, primary-colored bodies and the fact that they're hanging out with the same people and in the same places they do all the time. In the manga, scenes of extreme violence, or really gross stuff like nasty Amusing Injuries or Momoka being groped by a space octopus giving her the Kiss of Life would be pixellated out. | |

Parodied in an episode of HouseBroken. When Elsa's owner removes her vest (to put on a more festive one) the area her vest covers up is pixelated. Played straight when Diablo gets an erection from an anti-anxiety medication. | |

In Kochikame, Special Detective Kitano only wears a speedo and necktie. He will always take off his speedo and removing his sidearms when fighting crime completely unarmed. His privates will always show pixellation. Also occurred a few times to other male characters in the manga. | |
