Split and subtitle text layers in After Effects

Split and subtitle text layers in After Effects

What’s Inside:
• Slice text into individual word or character layers
• Import full SRT subtitle files as editable text
• Align any layer type (AV, shape, 3D, text) with one click
• Auto-delete original layer after slicing
• One-click centered text creation with smart naming

How It Works:
Text Tab — click Slice to split into words, Shift+click for characters. Align button works on all layer types. Text Tool creates center-justified layers with smart naming
Subtitle Tab — import .srt files into fully timed text layers with auto-centered anchor and position, no expressions or scripts
Slice first, then animate — complex styling and effects are flattened during slicing to ensure accurate bounding boxes (AE limitation)
