January 23, 2012 at 4:35 pmI can not see your video because of restrictions on the network where I work. Would the Card Dance effect be what you want?
If not, and if nobody else replies, I will try to remember to look at this when I get home.– The Great Szalam

January 23, 2012 at 8:09 pmAre you splitting this into 10 monitors for a staging company that will be displaying the video? I have had to do that before and the first step is to call the staging company and ask them “What do you need me to deliver”?

January 23, 2012 at 10:04 pmI have very little experience dealing with multiple video screens synced to each other, but Walter Soyka has a lot of experience with it. This seems like something that should be posted over in the regular After Effects forum.
Basically, you need seperate video files for each screen. The easiest way I can think to create them is to make one giant comp with your content and then make a smaller comp for each screen that contains the larger comp. That way you can adjust one comp for the content and all the screen versions will update.
Again, that’s if we’re asuming that he’s asking for a way to sync up 10 different screens.
If he’s just asking for a way to use After Effects to put video on screens that have already been filmed, then we should suggest that he use Corner Pin to put his videos in place. If the shot is moving, Mocha or AE’s Motion Tracker should do the trick.

January 24, 2012 at 6:34 amIf the original was for Brightsign players, production was done on something else, like After Effects, also maybe Digital Fusion, or Dataton Watchout or AvStumpfl Wings Platinum, the latter two being specialist multidisplay software.
For file splitting, which Brightsign players require, Wings Platinum has in-built output options to output to individual displays either as .mov, .avi, wmv or mpeg2 formats. BrightAuthor, a free software from Brightsign, would then be used to author the necessary files into SD/SDHC Flash cards for the various Brightsign players, and sync them all via Ethernet link for playback with the first player being the Master from which the others would take their ‘cue’ from –
https://www.brightsign.biz/tutorials.php#MultiSynchIf you only have After Effects, the splits can be chosen through Make Movie > Render Settings where you can crop parts of the whole composition to the various multiple files for each Brightsign player to handle.
In the example you showed, the whole comp is likely to be a rectangular area which includes the hollow under the ‘arch’. On output to the various files, just do not output the parts where the hollow is. Obviously, the comp has to be a resolution where the individual parts match the total combined res of the plasma monitors being used.
