Jittery Film Projector effect

In PP 1.5 how would I create this effect?
I want it to look like the film is jumping the film gate of a projector.

Thanks.
Bill

Don't know I have not seen Fight Club. :-(

Thiink of a film chattering though a film gate on a 16mm projector just before it breaks.
It is that visual effect I want to create.

Thanks.

Unless you like to keyframe A LOT, you should use After Effects "The Wiggler" function instead of Premiere Pro. You can do all sorts of things with it to automate placing random keyframes... hyperactivity, grunge, shakes, etc. If you don't have AE Pro, the Std. version can use the expression "wiggle (x,y)" to archive similar results that the Pro's The Wiggler achieves.

Here's an entry on my blog describing the "Old Film" effect and my attempt to do it on an opening sequence to a DVD I made:

Maybe it can help you with some ideas,

If you know someone who has Edius this is a very simple effect to do. It is a filter that is very easily adjusted to suit your needs and plays in real time. Otherwise, AE would probably be your best bet.

Download this file from Andrew Kramer's Old Film tutorial. It's actual film footage... so you can't get much more real than that.

Lay it over your footage and play with transfer modes. Again, you might want to play with judder and strobing mentioned in my blog post above.

Movie Maker

Depending on what exactly you need, good old Windows Movie Maker has a pretty decent "Film age" effect in three flavors, old, older, and oldest.

Yes, sorry, that was the link. Looks like I pasted in the wrong one in my last post!
