Glitchin’ aint easy - actually, it can be. Today we’re going to create a Glitch Effect Template that will work with any image or video.
Have you ever been hacked? Or maybe you’re the one doing the hacking? Either way, glitch effects like this are very popular in today’s cyber world. So in today’s tutorial, we are going to make this glitch effect that you can set up once and then drop over any footage.
How to Create a Glitch Effect in After Effects
The great thing about this template is that we are going to have some control over the variables once we set it up. Once you create it, you can make your glitch as subtle or as chaotic as you’d like.
Today, we'll cover:
- How to add distortion using a displacement map
- How to shift color channels
- Set up sliders to change these effects easily
- Building a reusable Glitch Template
