Glitch Hit

Everything below can be changed without touching the animation. Hand the list to an agent, or edit the values at the bottom of the component file.

• Peak

  peak · number

  Where the hit lands, as a fraction of the clip. The cut to the next shot happens on this frame, in the middle of the glitch, so line it up with your edit point. 0.5 is exactly one second into the two-second clip.

  now: 0.5

• Strength

  strength · number

  How far the slices tear sideways and how much block noise appears. 0.4 is a nudge for a vlog cut, 0.8 a clear hit, 1 a full breakdown for a gaming montage.

  now: 0.8

• Slices

  slices · number

  How many horizontal bands the picture is cut into. Fewer gives big, bold chunks where both shots stay recognisable; more gives a finer digital shred.

  now: 12

• Rgb split

  rgbSplit · number

  How far the red and blue channels pull away from the green, which is what puts coloured fringes on every edge. 0 turns the fringes off.

  now: 0.7

• Stage

  stage · boolean

  Draw two stand-in shots, a gaming setup at night and a rainy neon street, so the cut can be seen doing its job. Turn it off to export the glitch alone for your own edit: then only the gaps, colour sheets, blocks and tears are drawn, since an overlay cannot move the footage under it.

  now: true

• Ground

  ground · boolean

  With the stand-in shots off, paint the brand's own ground behind the glitch. Off leaves the background transparent so it lays over your footage.

  now: false

• Brand

  brand · string

  Brand token id, one of the keys of BRANDS. Its accent tints the noise blocks, and both accents light the stand-in shots.
