now I know a lot of people have probably posted about needing help with hogs at th8, but I can't seem to find a good guide on them. I'm new to the forums so I was wondering if anyone could link me a video about th8 hogging. thanks if you can!

The best way is just to experiment. Chief Pat has a decent guide on it.

One thing" Do NOT bring a lightning spell. Just bring some wiz in your army camps or maybe your cc to take out cc troops. Also, in the video, he says you need lvl 4 hogs, lvl 3 do just fine. lvl 2 are not bad either. Watch out for giant bombs and make sure you drop your heal spells good.
-Good luck!
Assuming you have level four hogs it really comes down to scouting. Not all bases at TH8 are easily hoggable. It helps when they are clustered tightly together. Just study the base, try to trip any double giant bomb during your clan castle lure and make sure your heal spells are placed over any remaining giant bombs before they are set off.
thanks guys! And also, how do you get that signature thingy?
check out OneHives videos on Youtube on this. he does the best job ive ever seen explaining attack strategies!
Some of the basics of Hogging at TH8 :
1. Its all about pathing of the hogs as they jump from one defense to another. During scouting work out how they will run around the base and if you can cover them with heals effectively.
2. Kill the CC troops (and queen if attaching higher base) before starting your hog attack
3. Scout base to figure out possible double giant bomb locations and either defuse them or avoid them. (by taking out defenses in that area with balloons or kill squad)
4. Heal spells are the best to take with Hogs (put heal spell ahead of the hogs depending on which defense they are going to jump to or to cover a giant bomb location. Remember a heal won't save them from double giant bombs)
5. Hogs LVL4 is the best to use at TH8 (anything less and there's higher chance of them dying out)
I've got tons of videos on TH8 hogs, 3 starring war bases. Have a look below.
Have Fun :D
There is a strategy called HoLo (hogs+ loons) that works well against anti-drag bases. Or else, Surgical hogs work well.
I suggest also taking a look at GoHo.
