Thanks guys.

I don't see the flicker. Anybody else sees this? Can you give a time where that happens? The pandown is a 2D animation of a premade matte and I didn't manipulate it's brightness in AE, so there shouldn't be any flicker.

@Flynn: By a rough estimate, all the work that went into this clip took about 10 hours. With the crawl and receding logo about 30hrs.

I'm having Christmas with the fam right now and don't have access to the clip, but I'll try to post an example later. The brightness definitely goes up and down right before the end of the pan and then stabilizes precisely when the camera stops.
