Looking 4 edit technique to simulate reel breaking in projector.
The effect I want to create is that of watching a film on a projector. After 20 seconds, the film reel breaks and you see the last few frames “jump” around and then the image goes to white. The audio will be the subtle stutter of the film project and then, snap, whap, flap, flap flap, flap, tchewwwww. and then silence. Get it? Any editing ideas what to do with the my video clip towards the end there? Keyframe the jumping or maybe take stills and manipulate them in position and maybe color or effect?

am I missing something?, artbeats appears to be a stock footage joint.

yeah, I suppose that some of the stock footage could be combined (composited) with my footage, but I’m still looking if someone has had to mimic this and the technique they used.

You are missing nothing. This is a stock footage joint that has the film effect you are looking for, the film roll out.
I haven’t seen that effect done without the use of this film-out footage, or similiar film out footage.

When I needed to do this in a hurry without buying stuff this is what I did:
I created a white matte on V1 and put my actual video on V2 and on V3. I used keyframes in the motion tab to make the video “jump around”. By lining up the V2 and V3 tracks I was able to simulate seeing two frames at once. Then I finally reached a point where I froze a frame, and then I immediatly used the transition in the Quicktime folder called “Explode”. At the same time as its “Exploding” I used the motion paramaters to distort the frame.
It all happens so fast that it fools the eye pretty well. Sure, if someone goes through it one frame at a time it looks pretty fake. But if they only get one chance to see, and the whole thing only takes a second (7-10 frames for the meelting) its pretty effective. Good sound effects are a key here, too.
