Hello.

I used datamoshing a lot in my latest film. It was pretty hard to find good tutorials (especially text tutorials) on it, so I've decided to make both a video and a text tutorial myself. I will update this description with a link to the text tutorial.

I love datamoshing because you can achieve some really cool effects very easily, and there's a lot of room for experimentation :)

Further reading:

• the tutorial I learnt how to datamosh from: https://www.hellocatfood.com/datamoshing-using-avidemux-2-7-0/
• video explaining the types of frames in interframe codecs (like h.264): https://youtu.be/-4NXxY4maYc?si=9DUfyGeREMboXA4z&t=238 (highly recommend the video if you're interested in learning about how digital video works! Everything is explained really well.)

More datamoshing tutorials to come. Probably.
