GENESIS
My peer Ivanna Smith approached me for an opportunity to glitch the h*ck out of her a scene in her senior thesis film about the seven deadly sins. In the scene of Sloth, I decided to make glitch as a narrative rather than an aesthetic visual by tapping into the background as a visual effects artist.
CONCEPT
A repertoire of glitch
Here is the protocol that I used: rotoscoped elements from different shots, corrupted its data through Avidemux and Adobe Audition, rephotographed the playback on a LED television, re-composite into the original plate.
