VHS plugin (Patreon)

Hello everyone!

I've been messing around with getting a VHS effect on my work. First off, I animated a simple laugh:

After lots of tweaking I arrived at the following settings, if you want to try them for yourself:
(Patreon doesn't let you click and enlarge images for some bewildering reason, so I've included it as an attachment)

And the final result:

Obviously I'm not about to slap a flickery VHS filter on my finished films! But it's quite an interesting result and something to help me consider what kind of finishing touches I think would help the work most while keeping it enjoyable for viewers and myself as the creator.  

I sincerely hope to include more smug laughter in my work going forward.

All the best,
