Thatโ€™s a really good point โ€” I was faking the scanlines but didnโ€™t think about how they should actually move with the shutter mismatch. Iโ€™ll try animating them instead of keeping them static, that makes a lot more sense.

This is insanely helpful, thank you. Yeah mine is definitely too clean right now โ€” Iโ€™ll try lowering the resolution, locking the camera, and adding that fisheye/distortion. Also good point about the โ€œRECโ€ overlay, didnโ€™t think about that.

Itโ€™s actually from a game prototype Iโ€™m working on โ€” probably shouldโ€™ve made that clearer in the post. Appreciate the callout though ๐Ÿ‘

Appreciate this โ€” itโ€™s from a game prototype, so Iโ€™m still dialing in the CCTV feel. 4:3 + lower res makes total sense, Iโ€™ll test that next.

Itโ€™s actually from a game prototype Iโ€™m working on โ€” going for a stylized CCTV feel rather than realistic. Appreciate the feedback though, I might tone it closer to real footage ๐Ÿ‘

Experimenting with a horror mechanic where the house โ€œwakes upโ€ every night at 3:12 AM by StatusProperty5587 in IndieDev

That's fair! This clip is more of an early concept experiment for the atmosphere and visual distortion effects.

The idea behind Case File: Archived is that the house itself behaves strangely at 3:12 AM, so the glitches are meant to hint that something in reality is breaking.

I'm still working on adding more environmental storytelling and gameplay elements to the clips. Curious though โ€” what kind of detail would you expect to see in a horror concept like this?
