Video to Chars
Convert video to character art animation.
Install
Install video2chars:
pip install video2chars
If you're using an old version of pip, maybe you should add --prefer-binary to make things go right(or upgrade your pip first):
pip install video2chars --prefer-binaryThis tool relies on imageio-ffmpeg, but only the binary version of imageio-ffmpeg contains the ffmpeg binary.
if pip choose the source version, problem will occurs.
Usage
video2chars --chars_width 120 --t_end 10 path/of/video_file
The command shows that the specified video will be converted to an ascii art animation with the width of 120, and only convert the first 10 seconds.
you'll see a file named output.mp4 in your current directory when completes, have fun ~
p.s. it's a bit slow, turn down the width and fps, to speed up the conversion.
Check video2chars --help for more information.
