pixel fuck 

To nit-pick on a creative project that is not your own, usually focusing on minor details that eventually stack up and change the look and feel of the piece. Very unnerving to the creative in charge of the project, especially if the pixel fucker is standing right behind the creative during the production.
Account Exec: Hey...you finish editing that spot yesterday?
Editor: Hell no! I thought we were going to be done by lunch time, but the stupid client pixel fucked it until midnight. He'll be here in a hour for more.

pixel-fucking

When someone pays way too much attention looking at a visual effects shot in a film. Often happens when examining the grain of a composite element to make sure it matches the film stock. Someone who pixel-fucks pays more attention to things like grain than the overall effectiveness of the shot. This is often because they are small-minded bean-counters, and miss the point of a shot entirely.

Closely related to 'frame-fucking'. See also 'pixel-fucking microscope'.
"Man, I can't believe that the director is pixel-fucking my shot."
