GIMP Tutorial: Glitch Text Effect

[@dj_chateau]

The presentation and instructions of this video should how many others should follow. Instructions were clear and little time was wasted going into tangents and sticking straight to what you want to convey. Well done.

[@yusrighouse]

Pure gold. Thanks for using Gimp. Tired of all the photoshop tutorials. You are really helping me build my business. thanks man. Love your work.

[@bgtherobit]

Thanks for this tutorial! I'm using it for a silhouette instead of text, and the method works just as good. I'd been trying to figure out how to make a nice glitch effect for a comic of mine, and this was really helpful.

[@brandonnorman4195]

Yo Nick, just thought I'd slide by and show appreciation for your videos. They're really awesome and so easy to follow even for a total beginner like myself. I have a bit of a system with them now, I follow along with you 2-3 times and then I do it on my own multiple times until I can do the effect all on my own. It works really great. Thanks loads for taking the time to do this for us. You're awesome.

I used this tutorial to make my logo and the intro to my newer videos. Thanks for putting these up, they are extremely helpful!

[@vroshabhisam5582]

Can't believe Gimp is capable of doing such things you made possible haha, thanks a lot.

[@nocommentgamez2571]

I"ve only recently discovered you videos on both GIMP and Inkscape which I have started to try and use and just want to say a big thank you! Amazing videos and so easy to follow and learn from. Things that looked so difficult, you've made it easy to understand and to replicate. Awesome work. Thanks again!

[@floriandechering6567]

I tried it myself and instead of putting the static photo beneath the text I put it over the text and turned the opacity down to 50%. I think this looks good too

[@LogosByNick]

Nice idea!

[@secretskill9383]

I have come so far in GIMP because of you, Nick! Likes and comments wherever I go, man. Hope all is well.

[@Gamatech123]

I'm only half way through the video and already learned like, five new things. Thanks for posting!!

[@larissamonroe21092]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! YOU REMOVED THE BEGINNING MUSIC THAT I LOVE!!!! Why did you remove it!?! And that thumbnail for the email i thought the picture was glitched..... great as always!

[@LogosByNick]

I thought maybe the content would be better if it were more to-the-point. I'll be putting the intro back in shortly though. This week's videos have already been recorded and scheduled for upload, so they won't have it.

[@larissamonroe21092]

Your content has always been perfect. Always. Ok good....I really miss the intro, I always bob my head when I listen to the intro music and the outro music. So thank you for putting it back in. ~HUGS~ Ok understood no music for the next week... least I wont be thinking now 'he better just be sick, or a new person uploading it lost it and he is searching for it so he doesnt have to recreate it" I always watch your video, but I actually felt sad when the music wasent there :(

Thanks for this great tutorial! It's very easy to follow and explains exactly what I was looking for to create a good glitch effect.

[@drinkingpantsside9917]

Love your work man, you make everything understandable and have great ideas. Actually used this method to create some of my twitch channel stuff. Keep up the good work

[@MangoHunter69]

This was so helpful, I actually did all three of the "like, comment, and subscribe" routine. Nice.

[@cursedbeasts9991]

Thank you for explaining how to move parts of a layer. That had me going up a wall earlier today haha!

[@MrSouthmandan]

Would love your video intro back. Trying this one later on.

[@LogosByNick]

Thanks. I'll probably bring it back next week. The next 2 videos have already been made and scheduled for upload this week, so they won't have it.

[@GMTekken]

this was my first video that i watched of yours, helped me out so much

[@salmanbabar]

You always come up with best ideas for your tutorials. Keep up the good work.

[@LogosByNick]

Thank you, but I can't take credit for this one. I saw several tutorials on how to do this with Photoshop and thought it would be good to show how it can be done with GIMP as well.

[@salmanbabar]

Nick Saporito props to you for your honesty.

[@timcozad6125]

Excellent tutorial as always Nick! Thanks for sharing. This one reminds me of season 3 of Mr. Robot marketing.

[@novamoon777]

I love your videos! I can't believe how many things I've learned since I subscribed to your channel. I like how you keep things simple for everyone to understand, you definitely deserve more followers! Also your last name in italian means "tasty" (unrelated, but I wanted you to know it :D). Annnnnd... I guess that's all! Thank you so much for your amazing tutorials, and greetings from Italy! (I apologize for my bad english, I'm not a native speaker!)

Nick? Did you by any chance read my mind? This is what i've been looking for! :)

[@eterno1610]

Also for images/pictures its bit different right? duplicate picture 2 or 3 times and on each of them use colorize and then move them either up/down or left/right.

[@LogosByNick]

Yes that would work as well!

Is it possible to do this technique with a photo within the text? and make the text itself transparent with it's glitch effect and picture inside? That's what I'm trying to do.

[@RussellTeapot]

mmmmh mmmmh really nice! I smell a little python-fu plugin for this, maybe using semi-random values for the selections

[@spaceman-pe5je]

mmmmhmmmhh

[@xsl8167]

Where can I find the blend tool? I love your videos though🌟

[@xsl8167]

And when I do the gradient part and let go, it does not like merge the static picture to the black background

How do you even come up with this stuff man lol. Like do you know what all the functions in ink scape do so you visualize it in your head or do you go through a process of elimination for hours to figure it out.

Did the explode, sliced, and smash tutorials already without problem, but this one when I make the sliver of box to cut the line out of the text, I make the box and float, but then when I change to use the move tool I get an error that the selection is empty. If you or anyone could help I would appreciate it.
