Purpose: As with most projects, it is meant to fix a problem of mine, in this case creating videos without much of a hassle. And welp I guess there are some chances someone else might have the same problem. So here you go someone, go and become famous.
Inspiration: As with RSS Feeder, Luke Smith inspired me once again. He wrote a script which takes images and audio and makes a video with them. That video is also the inspiration behind the formatting of the files.txt file. So I decided to write my own version with python and add a bit more to it.
Naming: From Doofenshmirtz. The thing is that the word stems from famine, and not fame, but let's agree otherwise.
All you have to do is copy paste the commands below into your terminal.
git clone https://github.com/Ckrielle/Faminator.git
cd Faminator
pip install -r requirements.txt
I made a video on the project on my youtube channel. It's in Greek however. One day I'll add english subtitles to it.
Truth be told I'm of the Luke Smith school of video making. That means no editing. So the program works fine for what I want, though more could be added:
- When you create a video and put audio over it, the video takes the length of the audio file. I finally understood what "it's not a bug, it's a feature" means.
- Give the possibility to 2x a clip/video or a portion of it.
- Provide more editing features.
- Help in generating files.txt.
- Add a mode to create videos with both clips and images.
- Option to add background music.
- Change clip and images dimensions.
And whatever else comes to my mind at a later time.
If for some reason you think I deserve money for having written this or any of my other projects, firstly thank you very much I'm humbled. Secondly you can buy me a penguin!
