Bad TV

Analog tape decay

Bad TV imitates a worn-out VHS tape: heavy analog grain, soft motion roll, channel ghosting and the color shift you get when the heads need cleaning. It differs from CRT, which imitates the screen, and Glitch, which imitates digital errors. grain controls noise density and motion controls roll speed. It pairs well with a country selection for retro tourism-board pastiches and mockumentary openers.

When to use this

  • Mockumentary and faux-archival video opener graphics
  • Vaporwave / retro music project branding
  • Lo-fi podcast cover art and stream backgrounds
