Recreate digital TV noise?

Working with a client on a music video project and they want to incorporate the kind of digital blips, hits and hiccups you see sometimes on digital cable or satellite. Anyone know of any plugins that can replicate that, either for FCP/Motion or AE? I could create the stuff manually but I'd rather save time if there's something already available.

It's funny, all of the 'Bad TV' filters out there that I've seen are all about replicating the bad reception problems of another era. Pretty soon nobody's going to recognize the effect of a wavy, rolling screen with static!

TIA, JK

No. It will last forever just like everybody knows a radar screen has to go round and round and a newsroom has to sound like a teletype. somebody posted a "movie reality" list of these silly effects.

It could also be said that off-air distortion is unique. Digital freeze-ups and crashing look pretty much the same no matter where they come from and most people alive today remember what analog off-air looks like.

Some old VHS decks will give you snow when no tape is inserted.

Thanks Andy, that may be close to what I need; will have to download the trial to see if it works. Too bad it's only included in the whole suite ($300)

@ Kevin, yeah but it's same old analog-style bad TV (static, roll, waves) and not modern glitches, pixelation, etc.
