Chipped it, more realistic than a crack / metal fatigue and is just as bad for knife guys.

How would you apply a glitch effect like this to text and images?

Glitch effects like this are (and I am trying to achieve) seemingly random, asymmetrical, etc. Is there particularly techniques or tools to do something like this, or is it just a pain in the ass "do each bit one by one" sort of deal?

Ultimately I don't want something as extreme as this, something much more minor (just for a single line of text really) so my first thought as a retard is to just go in to paint and shift a few lines of pixels left or right
>>
Displacement maps. Also if you can ask here, you can use google to get a much more refined answer by just searching "glitch effect how to in (whatever program)"

Im assuming youre a zoomer and dont know google exists, in which case, die

There's different types, the best ones are made for posters or titles from scratch by experimenting with typography and even programming or drawings, example:
https://vimeo.com/118998266

The ones you posted are kinda generic, if you want to learn just download premade from psdkeys or creativemarket and dissect them either on photoshop or aftereffects, for Ae you can stack all crazy effects and animate them pretty easily.
>>
>>462551
if you want to have procedural control I really like using TouchDesigner for these. And as said above, displacement. You will also need to do the chromatic aberration effect. You can separate your color image into RGB and then slightly transform them and recombine.

Someone shared a tutorial (for C4D) here >>463317
basically you do an abstract thingie in a 3D program and the rest you do in photoshop/gimp/etc

And also look at references, this style is kinda old so there are tons of examples out there. Yandex is pretty good to find similar images.

I can now see how I can use Blender for that. Thanks.

Yes. "Canvaslop" is a dumb name. But it's the only thing I can really call it. I fucking hate this shit so much. Words cannot describe how much I want to grab the bellend(s) who started this bandwagon of diarrhoea and reduce them to a red smear on the pavement. I want them rotting in fucking hell. I will shit on their grave. Anyone else hate this shit? I've attached an example for those not in the know.

I know nothing about technical graphic design. I'm just and immigrant who stumbled across this board (I'm liking it though). To me these designs look really nice. Way more pleasant to look at than insipid English design

How do I cope knowing that the best logo ever is ruined by a retarded ideology?
Nothing comes even close to the swastika. It makes me depressed to the point of giving up logos completely.

I really really really really hate synthwave like you wouldn't believe. People take this one singular aspect of 80s retrofuturism and make it the only thing that pops up in google image's search results when you look up 80s aesthetics. Holy fuck shit do I fucking hate idc if you guys call me a sperg I have this deep visceral hatred for that aesthetic. Maybe it's the oversaturation, or the fact that it's performatively retro. What happened to the other stuff associated with 80s retrofuturism like in pic related? Is it not "80s" enough for people or what
>>
>>463532
Don't use modern terms if you want to see stuff actually made back in the day. Look up artists names, movie posters, book covers, advertisement, etc.

It’s time to redo my portfolio and I’m looking for some inspiration. I’m a usability/product designer, but I’ll take any ideas. What are your favorite portfolios? Or share yours if you dare.
>>
>>463107
keep it simple and dont waste the visitors' time. these recruiters have to look at hundreds of portfolios. wasting just a second on an animation or long load time can be enough for them to move on to the next one. your website should be the place to show off your work, not be the work.
small introduction on the top, then two colums with large thumbnails that entice and lead to its page. each project page shouldnt need more than a small description. picture = 1000x words
good luck :)
>>
Is a portfolio website really necessary if I'm not gonna use it for applying for a job vacancy? Like, I was planning to apply for some gigs on platforms until I got money enough to start a business myself, which is what I'm aiming for.
Platforms usually want me to upload my image files to their own system, so a portfolio website doesn't make itself necessary for doing that. In which cases it's profitable to run a website just for the portfolio itself ratter than using it when applying for jobs in existing businesses?
>>
>>463351
don’t listen to this anon, basic portfolios don’t stand out. a plain, derivative portfolio won’t serve you best. true about time wasting doe.

Here's my ACTUALLY redesigned flag.
To begin with, the aspect ratio was bad. Adjusted to 2:1.
The blue square did not line up with the original aspect ratio. Adjusted to fit neatly into the top left quarter of the picture.
The odd number of red lines on the picture made the blue square no longer fit flushly with the lines. Adjusted the number of red lines to 12.
The stars were white, but everyone knows stars are yellow. Adjusted to the color yellow.
The stars did not take up the entirety of the blue square. Adjusted to make more efficient use of the space.
The original blue and red colors had poor contrast. Adjusted saturation for greater readability.
This current flag is more immediately identifiable and much more visible and readable in lower light and/or from farther away.
