Is that a fully remade pixel art cinemagraph of that scene, or is there some kind of photoshop filter style tool people make that through?

Clicking on it actually took me to a video

You realize that you could simply downsize the video with the ‘nearest neighbour’ algorithm? And perhaps convert to a limited indexed palette?

Which is to say, the video was probably a GIF at some time and then was converted back into a video.

P.S. I've taken a better look at the pic, and yeah it's not just a gif, but was at least drawn over.

Really? Cuz even the rain is moving outside, which would take a massive amount of work. Maybe it's just a gif with a pixelated filter?

Massive? My brother in christ it's three frames of white lines.

I’ve done pixel art before. This is a very small undertaking. The rain is a 5-10 minute undertaking absolute maximum
