Video Wall look...

I want to make what looks like a video wall many news stations have or something like a jumbotron screen you see at sporting events. Basically I need to create a grid of 3 to 9 boxes or squares and scale them down to fit onto the screen. Then take 1 clip of video and have that play across all the boxes at one time. So the end result would be a person's head in say the top row of boxes and their arms in the middle row box on the ends of that row , stomach in the middle row boxes and legs in the bottom row middle boxes. I might have to create the grid in Livetype using those Wingdings fonts ro Webdings I cant remember. As for getting the video like I just mentioned I have to figure that out.

OR,,,how about this...

Take a clip and layer it across several tracks right above each other. Then scale each clip down to form a grid. The problem I forsee with this is I am going to have the same image in every box which i dont want. I could use that multiply filter for that.
 
Why not just build a matte in photshop or in FCP itself with solids to look like a grid overlay that over your video clip and it will look like a video wall but with only 1 layer.
