GlitchyEvery take, one edit
Upload the track and 2 to 6 takes sung over it. The app syncs them by their audio, switches takes on tempo in the calm parts and goes wild in the busy parts of the beat.
Every take cut into one edit, on the beat
Sing or lip-sync the same part of the track in 2 to 6 different spots. The app lines the takes up by their audio, switches between them on tempo in the calm parts and goes wild when the beat gets busy. No editing skills needed.
Shoot vertical. Change place, outfit or framing in every take.
Play it from a speaker or another phone while you record. The app syncs every take with that sound.
Start the track from the same point in every take and sing or mouth the lyrics.
The final audio file, WAV or MP3, to lay under the edit.
Files
- Record every take with the track playing out loud (another phone or a speaker). The app uses that audio to sync it.
- Always start the track from the same point and sing or mouth the lyrics in every take.
- Change place or framing in each take. The more different they are, the more the glitch shows.
Synced takes
Each take shows where in the track it started. If the mouth doesn’t match when you watch the edit, adjust it here. EDM beats repeat, so the usual miss is exactly one bar.
The track
Edit
Another variation deals the takes differently, with the same rules.
Lyrics
Optional. Each card sits on screen until the next one and pulses on the beat: big, normal, small, normal.
Export
Premiere: File, Import, the .xml. Flipped cuts land on V2: select them all and drag the Horizontal Flip effect onto them once. For the lyrics, run the lyrics .jsx in After and bring that comp into Premiere with Dynamic Link, or render it with alpha.
After Effects: File, Scripts, Run Script File, the .jsx. It builds the comp with every take, the mirror already applied, the track and the lyrics with their pulse.
MP4: built frame by frame; 30 seconds can take a couple of minutes. Keep the tab open.
