Add an animated colour glitch.
Chroma Glitch
Method #
This node generates striped glitches which displace the image and alters its colours. Useful for quickly adding an image glitch which isn’t as intrusive as the Block Glitch, but still adds a nice glitch effect.
Parameters
These properties control the core behaviours of the node.
Parameter Details Active
Enables or disables the effect. Disabling the effect means it will no longer compute, so disabling a node when not in use can improve performance.
Blend Amount
Changes the opacity of the new effect over the original image.
Blend Mode (RGB)
Change how the generated effect blends with the parent image RGB.
Blend Mode (Alpha)
Change how the generated effect blends with the parent image alpha.
Block Size
Pixel size of the blocks the image will be broken into.
Breakup Amount
How much the blocks are broken up.
Breakup Frame Amount
How far apart the blocks are moved when breaking up.
Breakup Size
How large each block is.
Displace Amount
How much to displace the image when broken up.
Glitch Rate
How often the glitch frames appear.
Glitch Duration
How long the glitch frames last.
Hold Glitch Frames
How long the glitch frames should be held for.
Colour Channel Mode
How the glitched frames should break up based on colour.
- Red / Green + Blue : Red is split away from green and blue.
- Luminance Dark / Light : Dark and light luminance values are split.
- No Split : Colour channels are not split when the image glitches.
Toggle which of the RGBA channels are affected by the effect.
