Techniques to make video look fuzzy and old?
Yes, can anybody suggest a plug-in or technique to make video look like old film where it has scratches and blips in it as it plays? Also, I’d like to find a technique, plug-in or program that can make video look like it was recorded off a TV with lots of snow (distortion of signal) in the picture and occasional skipping of frames want the video to look rough and cheap. THANKS.

DigiEffects Delirium is the plug-in you’re looking for.
You could always watch Aharon Rabinowitz’ tutorial on how to make an old TV look, this would prepare you well.
You could always find or create a garbage TV bad reception with gray and white lines, and then apply it as a transfer mode of as an alpha matte etc. to make it more real looking.
Here, I searched it for you. Always useful 🙂
For the lines and scratches, I suggest you do them in Photoshop and then animate them. And as for the grain, Noise > Noise effect should do it too.
Magic Bullet version 2.0 offers a lot more.
Hope that helped!

go to videocopilot.net and watch andrew kramer’s tutorial on old film look,
ive looped the clip of “old film” that comes with the tutorial playing it back to front (ie twice and reverse the second one) for about 45 seconds and heard no complaints, it looks amazing
hope that helps
p.s. congrats to andrew for making it to the “genius bar”
