Moiré

Moiré is a distracting visual disruption caused by the interference between tight patterns and the sensors in digital cameras. Patterns in clothing, like stripes and plaid, cause moiré to occur in video.

Moiré also occurs in environments with tight patterns, like brick walls, paneled siding, and window screens. Instead, choose clothing and backgrounds with solid colors that contrast each other.
