Here's a series of daily effect blog posts related to building various kinds of photo mosaic effects.

 

i think it would make sense to read through this material, and then ask some more specific detailed questions if you're still unclear on how to create the particular effect you are interested in. i can answer it here or add some more effect blog posts related to the discussion.

 

We've posted quite a bit back in old forum posts on recreating the look of Tsevis's Studio Artist effects, including posting specific presets for people that allow for interactive size control of the movie brush on a fixed grid. it's all archived in the forum section.
