This idea was based on some discussion on how to mimic a slitscan effect with conventionally shot footage. While it does not provide the exact look, it offers an alternative to using gradients with time displacement. It can also be used to create interesting patterns by sampling randomly moving objects at different times as illustrated in the image – the circles are sliced into a bunch of strips and form these interesting jagged structures.
Furthermore this could be used for transition effects. The project provided will only work well with broader strips due to how it uses linear wipes for the cropping. Smaller sizes will not correctly align due to the antialiasing. A little experimentation may be required to find a good setting.
