@wtrmt I had written two different programs to create a slit-scan film from original footage. However, so far it has remained at the experimental stage. In terms of processing power and memory requirements, it is even more demanding than the film-to-still process.
But in my opinion, the real problem is the aesthetics. Procedural methods that produce convincing results in a still image do not work well visually in the film-to-film process.

@wtrmt This type of #slitscan is done as a post process. Converting a movie (x/y/time data) into a single image.
First I'm recording the footage. High frame rate (60 – 240 frames per second) and low or medium resolution (1280x720 or 1920x1080 pixel). Using a second hand iPhone 8 or a X100VI camera.
The effect is created using this open-source software. https://gitlab.com/metagrowing/slitscan It is very computationally intensive.
This 4 images were created from the same film. Only using different algorithms.
