1920 x 1200 @ 60hz (NTSC Television).
This isn’t NTSC or any other flavor of TV for that matter.
Get a proper video card for your Mac. Decklink or Kona.
Get the SDI module for the monitor

Drop the oversized grid layer in a standard sized comp (ex: 864 x 486), add a null, parent the big grid layer to the null and animate the null. Enable motion blur. Render.
[Paul Wright] “To keyframe all those moves by hand and make them all unique would take tons of time.”
The animation for this piece isn’t very complicated. What takes time on something like this is the pre planning prior to animating. -
“…would be perfect for watching anything cinematic.” – Andrew McKee
Horses for courses. 24p is fine for ‘anything cinematic’. For fast action sports 1080i provides smooth motion. Carlton appears to be asking for a single solution. It depends on the subject matter and the destination of the end product.

Have you tried iStock or Shutterstock?

Many broadcasters are using 1080i.

I agree with Dave, there’s nothing simple about setting up a broadcast studio. The first thing I would do is determine your clients expectations. How much are they expecting to spend for start up? How much do they expect to spend annually to maintain the studio? If the client has some grasp of the huge investment that it takes to build and run a studio then you should move on to the next step. Hire a systems ingrator to put together a proposal for your client.

In the render Queue set the format to Quicktime. Click on the format options and change the compression type to DNxHD. Select the resolution that matches your sequence.

As Job pointed out, it’s a problem with semantics. Simply saying ‘Nitris’ is descriptive enough.
If this job is on a MC or Symphony with a Nitris DX you’ll be fine. If it’s on a DS Nitris you could end up in the tall grass very quickly. DS is an awesome tool, but it’s not something you want to be learning with an over caffeinated producer pacing behind you. -
GenArt’s Sapphire, The Foundry’s Tinderbox or DigiEffects Damage. All of these sets have some sort of Bad TV effect.
You can cook up your own effect using AE’s displacement mapping.

The following fix is for MC5 and Intuos tablets, but it might be worth a shot.
Open the Device Manager
Open Human Interface Devices
Disable “Wacom virtual HID driver”This function allows for hand writing recognition in MS Word – it’s not needed for Media Composer.
There are a several Wacom threads on the Avid forums, however most of them are about the Intuos tablets.
