This is a method developed by yours truly - while staring at After Effects and playing around with different effects in the distort category and the like, trying to come up with my own datamosh-style effect using native After Effects plugins. It uses some pretty specific displacement of the image to achieve the effect. This method is mostly for creating an interesting transition. So, altering this will keep certain pixels exactly where they are, causing one image to bleed into another.īeyond datamoshing, there are other interesting ways to create interesting looks and transitions using your video editor of choice. The I-frames track one pixel from one frame to another. According to Robbie, altering the Delta Frames creates that blooming and stretching pixel effect. In the video, Robbie uses the Datamosh plugin to get his effects quickly and easily. Using the plugin, you can customize the Delta frames and I-frames. While there are some pretty cool underground (and more purist) ways to create the datamoshing effect, there is now a very convenient plugin that you can use with After Effects to accomplish the same thing.
(Don’t know what those are? Neither do I.) However, some people leaned into this glitch and created a pretty viral trend.
It started with old editing software that was a bit buggy, sometimes causing “I-Frames” and “Delta-Frames” to not play nicely the way they’re supposed to. Datamoshing is a technique that has been gaining popularity over the last few years.
