There are some plug-ins that reduce video noise. They are often part of large sets of plugins and have a cost to match. I do any noise reduction in AE so my knowledge for PPro is a bit dated.
There was a plugin called Vixen that included noise reduction. I think that Video Finesse was available in a version for Premiere, as was ViviClip. Grain Surgery was made in versions for AE, PhotoShop, and for Premiere. Boris Continuum (really meant for AE) also loads into Premiere – or at least it did when I used it some time ago.
The AE noise reduction plug worked within Premiere, but you had to copy it from your AE folder into the PPro folder.

IF this is a locked-down shot (camera on a tripod, no camera movement, no zoom) then maybe you could clone stamp some of the trees over the house in the first frame. Then make any adjustments needed over the length of the shot.
Will not be much fun however.

If you have Premiere, you can generate the countdown with options for the background colors, etc.
Go to File > New > Universal counting leader and you can even pick the colors for Wipe, Line, Bkgnd, Target, Number.

Thanks Dave, but that’s the problem. The “original” has numerous layers, masks and effects. I was hoping to not have to tweak every one of those, and to just time remap the overall comp by nesting it into another comp and doing the time remap there.
Not sure why this doesn’t work. I can right-click on the nested comp in the timeline and turn on pixel motion, but there is no frame blending switch on that layer.

Aharon,
I was actually referring to the multiple timeline tabs.
Based on the other answers, it looks like this is a new ‘feature’ of AE7.
Maybe fixed in CS3??

FILE > IMPORT > FILE then pick your other aep project file.
This brings in the other project in a folder with the project name. You can then select individual comps and make any needed modifications.

I think that Dan is on to something when he said, “29.97 fps footage in a 30 fps comp?” Three seconds, 10 frames is exactly 100 frames, so there is likely something related to time or timing.
I don’t have AE on this computer. You might try looking for something relative to dropframe/ non-dropframe timecode in AE help, or the manual.

You’ll never make great-looking video from originals without a blue channel. However, I have come up with usable footage using the channel-mixer effect to “create” a missing channel from the green.
