Step By Step 1: Glitch Effect

My first experimentation is fairly simple and only involves one effect to create. Here is the step by step guide in order to achieve the effect i am showcasing. I will also have the effect in its entirety at the end.

So first i imported my clip into the timeline. Once i had my clip i then used the razor tool to cut up individual parts of the clip. Once i had them lined up i then had to delete a segment after each & every other segment. This created a jump effect which is the foundation of the glitch effect.

So once i had my jump cuts in place i then had to copy several of the segments & them on the timeline above. e i had them in place & all lined up i then was able to go to the effects of the copied segments & change the properties for both opacity & motion. So i selected the copy & changed the opacity to 75% but there was no change, to see the difference you would have to apply a blend mode, i selected "Linear Dodge (Add)" this allowed to blend both the copied & original layers together which creates an overlap. So now that i had the overlap i could now use the motion property on the copy to manipulate the movement of the glitch effect. I changed the default position of the copy to 932% pushing it slightly to the left creating the effect you see below.

 I did experiment with trying to key-frame the motion but came out with no success so i stuck with the more jumpy look. I did also change the motion of the vertical motion properties to a higher percentage but it resulted in the
overlap to be obscured.

So once i had changed the properties of one of the copies i doubled up the next two & applied the same changes to the properties pushing one of the copies to the left & one to the right. this created i nice animated effect, but to really have the glitch look technological it would be a good idea to add the implication of a malfunction like effect with the colors distorting. In order to achieve this i had to go to the effects search bar and look for RGB colour balance, once i added this to the separate individual copies i began to experiment with different colour changes. I chose to just change each individual one to a different colour which finally once i rendered & exported gave me the following effect.
