Glitch effect is retro-techno effect widely used on the design. In this post i am going to show how to create Distortion Effect in Photoshop easily. This effect is similar to the duo tone effect but it looks like an image distortion.

You can also use this effect on images and text.But in this tutorial i’m going to use an image to make a glitch effect.
