There is all sorts of visual “looks” compression can give video so without a screenshot it would be hard to point you in the right direction.
If I WERE to point you in a direction though, my first thought would be to Add Grain after your blur and play with the settings.

Do you have Caps Lock on?

As a somewhat hotshot Avid kid fairly recently out of school… me too.

It could possibly be related to this post:

I was having a huge stability and RAM preview problem with AE CS4 when the “mveaepreview.aex” plugin was installed without the I/O box connected. CS3 had no issues. Not saying it’s a fix but try dragging that plugin somewhere else temporarily then test to see if you still have a problem with “corrupt” clips.

Nice. Be it an editor to spend countless hours perfecting something the public will never see. 🙂

I guess I was thinking more like elements in an edit vs. an overall feel.
This may apply better to one of the compositing forums where projects tend to incorporate many different elements that the viewer only gets a brief glance at.

You didn’t say what version of AE you are using so I’ll be somewhat vague:
Import the clips you want to convert. Select them all and drag them to the “make comp” button. Select individual comps and check the box that says “add to render queue”. Make your settings changes and pick a save location for each file. Click “render”.
If you want the same renders settings and save location for each video, go into the output module and make whatever compression settings you want the files to have the default. Drag one file onto the “make comp” button and then add it to the render queue. It should automatically have your custom compression settings applied as default. Pick a location to save the file then grab the rest of the files and drag them to the “make comp” button. Select individual comps and click the “add to render queue” button. All the files will show up in the render queue with the compression settings you specified AND in the same output location you specified for the first file. TIME SAVED.

Looks like the link is broken. Does this still live somewhere or can somebody email it to me?

Have you had any luck with this since your post?

So, after speaking with Adobe customer support, it appears that the culprit behind the error message I’ve been getting is the Blackmagic HD 8-bit 4:2:2 Codec I was attempting to use for rendering. Because my Premiere project utilized the Blackmagic preset that matches that codec, I wanted to keep everything universal and prevent any pre-rendering in my Premiere project timeline. T
he workaround for now is to compress with a different codec or, if you have the space, render uncompressed. I’ll be contacting Blackmagic to let them know about the problem.
