CRT Rescanning

CRT rescanning is pointing a camera at a CRT in order to capture video or still photographs. People do CRT scanning for two main reasons, 1) some glitch devices modify the video signal so much that only a CRT will display them 2) capture devices will not capture the color and vibrancy of phosphor screens. You can use your cellphone to rescan your CRT. You may need an app that adjusts exposure time to sync up with the CRTs refresh rate. https://tachyonsplus.com/tech-tips#/camera/ How to Film CRT Screens Without Flicker or Strips how i film my CRT, and why more people should Features to look for in a camera for CRT rescanning.

Info: Layering clips One of the advantages of this method is that you can set the video to repeat, glitch them, layer the clips, and cut between them in whatever editing suite that you choose. This can get a little complicated, and you can easily mess the whole thing up. So what can be done to ensure a decent sink, is going to a section of the video and disabling the clips down the line, to check and see if they have a proper sync with one another. If the frames are exactly the same you are fine to begin cutting the footage together.
