Does any one know how you might make something like this ... https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/423831014939685938/
... in jitter? I basically want to be able to dynamically move and scale PNG files and then layer text on top. I have thought about LCD and jit.cornerpin techniques, but am finding it tricky. Any guidance greatly appreciated.

Jitter tutorial 14 would be a place to start with "importmovie" to load a .png and "usedstdim 1" for scaling the image.

I got a smoother flow by preloading my images into a coll matrix and randomly sampling sections into the master jit.matrix. Also played around with jit.gl.pix for some nice blending. For testing how it looks on a real frame, I pushed the output to my nixplay.com account—it updates live so I could tweak layout and transitions on the go.

I used jit.gl.videoplane with a slab chain to apply effects and blend layers. jit.gl.node helped keep everything in one texture, making it easier to composite and animate transitions.
