 '''Noise''', also known as '''Static''' is a video and audio distortion technique that involves 'fuzzing' of the footage.

-Video noise, also known as '''static''', '''fuzz''', and many other terms is when electricity or other sources are, in some way, is interfering with the video output - causing random pixels to appear in place of the intended footage. This can be easily replicated with a random generator to create the illusion of a bad signal.
-=Audio Noise=
+This is often seen in [[analog distortion]] effects and re-creations.
-Audio noise often comes in many different "colors" based on how it sounds. These are:
-* White
+=Types of Noise=
-* Purple
+There are five major types of noise.
-* Red (Brownian)
-* Pink
-* Grey

+=Usage=
+==Digitally==
+The process of adding noise to audio or video are practically identical; most of the time, you simply need to apply an effect that adds it in for you.
+===Video Effects===
+* Noise HSL and its variants in [[Premiere Pro]] and [[After Effects]]
+* (whatever the vegas one is)
+==Via Analog Distortion==
+Adding static to an analog signal is as simple as messing with the signal itself - putting things in the way, magnets, moving it too far away/weakening the signal, etc.
