# RGB Split Glitch: motion graphics style

> The word splits into red, green and blue channels that drift apart and snap back, while short glitch hits slice it into shifted strips and scatter noise blocks. The go-to digital glitch for tech, gaming, electronic music and cyber themes.

## Prompt (replace [TEXT] with your text)

```text
Animate [TEXT] with an RGB split glitch on near-black. Set it huge in a tall condensed bold sans, all caps, pure white. Separate the red, green and blue channels so colored fringes sit on opposite sides of each letter and slowly breathe a few pixels apart. Several times per loop fire an irregular glitch hit lasting a tenth to a quarter of a second: cut the frame into horizontal strips of random height and shove some of them sideways, push the channels much further apart, jolt the frame up or down, and scatter small blocks of colored pixel noise and inverted pixels. Snap back clean instantly. Add tiny technical readouts in the corners showing the channel offsets. Fine noise and faint scanlines throughout; keep hits short and partial, never a full-frame strobe. Loop every 6 seconds.
```

## Visual DNA

- Red, green and blue copies of the word offset in different directions
- Horizontal slices displaced sideways during brief glitch hits
- Scattered blocks of digital noise and inverted pixels
- Tall condensed all-caps type, white where channels overlap
- Calm breathing offset between irregular, sub-second bursts
