Slaughter - After Effects Slicing Script

I've built an After Effects script that will take your selected comp, and slice it up into smaller comps. This is necessary for large video wall implementations.

One caveat is that everything has to add up. Meaning the variables at the top of the script need to be edited:

var splitx = 6;
var splity = 5;
var width = 1360;
var height = 768;

This is for a 30 display video wall, with 1360x768 displays, and the source comp is 8160x3840.

The script also adds each of the comps to the render queue, and sets an output module of M2V (which you need to create in after effects, or setup something new and rename the module name to something else in the script).

The script also names every row with a letter, and then a row number, as well as the sequential number of the slice.

This is time saving, in the sense you don't need to start from a project that already has these sub-comps created, you can start from wherever you want and use the script for additional resolutions and projects.
