Video Tutorial: Data Glitch Effect

data glitch

El data glitch effect it is characterized by creating distortions in our images in the style of old televisions and analog camcorders of the 80s and 90s. It is also often used to emulate the texture of the image of a security camera for example. It is characterized by creating sweeping signals, using cool colors, some blurring, and some grain or noise.

This is the effect that I will teach you to apply today. The recipe? Here!

  • The first thing we are going to do is desaturate our image in the menu Image> Adjustments> Desaturate.
  • We will duplicate our layer with a Ctrl + J
  • We will go to the menu Filter> Blur> Gaussian Blur and we will give an amount of 30 pixels and an opacity of 70% to this layer.
  • We will create a new layer and within the square brushes mode we will select a size of 4 radius points. (This will depend on the size of the photograph, in this case we are working with a photograph at a size of 1125 x 756).
  • We will create a reason with a black brushstroke and two white ones in the lower area.
  • We will create a new layer and tint it with the paint pot and the motif option.
  • We will give this layer a 30% opacity and a blending mode in Soft light.
  • We will create a new layer and apply a radial gradient that goes from a white to a black color and we will give it a blending mode to overlap with a 50% opacity.
  • We will combine all the layers and give it a motion blur with an angle of -90 and a distance of 7 pixels approx.
  • We will go to the menu Image> Adjustments> Color Balance and we will give it the following values: -92 / -24 / -12
  • We will press Ctrl + L and we will give you the following values ​​in levels: 0 / 0,74 / 242
  • We will go to the menu Fultro> Noise> Add Noise and it will be of a uniform and monochrome type with an amount of 2.5%

Easy right?
