Color Circle filter?

[KnapfordMaster]

Way back in the 90s on a Nickelodeon cartoon, the transitions were done with this animated pattern of color circles. I've attached a picture example taken from the show. I want to know if a filter for this exists in Photosop because once at a photography class, the teacher had something VERY similar on his computer in photoshop. I don't actually have photoshop, so I'd like to know for certain if something like this is really in there before I get the trial to see for myself.

Thank you

Just to clarify, the color halftone filter produces a slightly different, more regular array of color circles, e.g., ...



If you really want to get close to the randomness of the pattern you cited, you need something that is called "stochastic half-toning" (which is definitely not part of PS).

Also, be advised that slight differences in the colors used, transparency, blending mode, etc. can produce surprisingly different patterns, e.g.,

Thanks for all the help. I generated a gradient from blue on top to almost white and applied the filter to that. It provided the perfect result
