    Hey guys,

    Any suggestions how to emulate a video glitch like the one I’ve attached a photo of? It is one of those lingering image errors you occasionally get with VLC, at least I sometimes do. Would be an interesting tool for transitions.

    This is called data moshing, I have done this a few times for an effect, there are tons of presets on videohive.net that can save you time, but I use a warp, a wiggle, and a blind effect to make it look like its actual tape footage that’s glitching. You always see it in cartoons

    Thanks for the replies. Helps to figure things out now that I know the correct term for the effect. Cheers!
