I did a search for old movie effect but nothing returned so I thought I would ask here.

How is the old movie effect done? You know, the one where the image shakes slightly, several lines appear randomly, dots flash.

I have an example that I found on a website. I’d rather not post the link (cause its not mine) until someone wants to see the example.

Thanks!  
Daniel

Couldn’t you do Kirupas tutorial but put it all in a movie clip and then have that movie clip ‘jitter’ a bit? Like put the MC one each on like four frames and in each frame have it move just a few pixels up, down, left or right?
