That made me think of rendering out Lightwave scenes to image files, then transferring onto tape using a single frame controller. Watching the computer slowly, every so SLOWLY, render one scan line at a time.
Gak.

Just a quick glance suggests one of the After Effects text animation presets has been used and a blur added to that. If they used the preset, they also pulled in the second keyframe quite a bit so it finishes quickly.

Is your original video 4:3 aspect or 16:9 aspect?
If it is 16:9 this is how it is going to look. You can reduce the size of your footage in the timeline, to avoid the top and bottom being masked off, but you will also have window boxing in addition to letterboxing.
Letterboxing was generally used to display 16:9 material on 4:3 screens. If your footage is 16:9 it is already “widescreen”. You would only see letterboxing if you had a more extreme aspect ratio like 2:35:1.

I’ve tried everything we’ve come up with, and can a get a little improvement. No way to eliminate it completely, but some improvement is better than none!

Thanks to all. I will try these things, and let you know if they did the trick.
The flicker is “baked in” so to speak, since it was shot off a projection screen. SO we are also likely seeing shutter speed difference as well.

The most simple way is to palce the clip in your source monitor and set you in/out points for the portsion of the sound you want.
You will see little icons for the video (looks like a film frame) and the audio (looks like a waveform). Grab the audio icon with your left mouse button and drag it to the audio track you want it on. Done!

Thank you Tim; I thought that was the case. I’ll worry about the rest when I replace the whole rig.
And buy a used copy of CS6.

You have lots of options.
You can simply use the titler in Premiere Pro. It gives you many options for dressing your fonts, and basic shape tools for creating L3 elements. You can make your stuff, drop it on the timeline, and either fade, cut or use basic motions FX to reveal very quickly.
You can go crazy doing stuff in After Effects for anything fancy you want, but if you are not familiar with AE, you’ll want to do some starter tutorials first.
In between, you can make layered elements in Photoshop, import into Premiere Pro as layers, and individually animate each layer element in Premiere Pro.
Lots of options!
