Answers.Body: <p>I can't see your images for some reason but I suppose this is intentionally added in the template project. To remove it you would of course need to figure out which effect within AE is creating this problem, which I can not do without looking at the file... however I would look for effects like "Optics Compensation" or "Transform" (the effect, not the property). Try turning off any adjustment layers one-by-one to see if that does it. There's a 99% chance that it is an effect on an adjustment layer at the top of your composition creating something like that!</p>

  <p>The effect makes the video hazy and adds an unappetizing tint to the borders of all the elements in the video :(.</p>

Comments.Text: Are you sure this is not an effect that is intentionally added by the template to yield a retro effect? Some movies do this, for example [Kung Fury](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bS5P_LAqiVg). If it is not, it could be caused by faulty sequence, render or export settings (in particular chroma subsampling or anamorphic pixels). I suggest you post screenshots of those settings so we can see what could be the problem.

Comments.Text: Agreed, chromatic aberration is a defect caused by the physics of glass lenses, to get it on a CG render you have to put it there.
