It looks as if this was done in Wordle – if so, you should have the ability to save the output as a PDF, in which case you can bring it in to AE looking fine.

Is there possibly a Color Overlay in Layer Styles applied to the layer. I use this regularly to make it easy to change colors of text to the client’s spec:

You can probably find clips which sound louder on YouTube because they were recorded at a higher input level. dB is a relative measurement for change in level (this could be SPL, or Sound Pressure Level, or electronic signal level). Here are some more possibilities to help you kick up your audio without clipping:

Here’s a good article on why our perception of loudness differs so much depending on what we’re listening to:

Normalize may help you out here – take a look on the Audition help page, scrolling down to Normalize:

With digital audio, 0dB is the upper limit. Normalize, and possibly the Speech Volume Leveler effect may help.

Bob – It seems that this is becoming a trend in small production houses. I have a friend who’s been an editor for eons, worked in the mass storage department at AVID for a while, and knows both the editing and the mass storage sides of things.
A company who hired him (as an editor) discovered that he knew his stuff on the shared storage side, and muscled him (for no extra money) to set up their system, thus becoming both the editor and storage IT guy. Needless to say, as the company’s fortunes began to slide a bit, the began to hire the cheap new crop of cub scout editors coming out of wherever they come out of, and the editor/storage IT guy, also had to become the teacher/hallway monitor for the storage system. He would get calls at all hours from the new guys who had no idea where anything was being put, or needed to put, and they were losing files and projects right and left.
The storage management job became more time consuming than the editing, and even a couple of years after he left the facility he still gets calls asking him what to do, or why he set something up a certain way…
