6. Applies effects to the audio files, which include trimming the audio to be a random short length. The script will also attempt to repeat audio clips less than 5 seconds to give a repetitive-like nature to the end result.
7. The merged video clip & merged audio clip is then merged together to produce the final result, which is put into the `output/` directory.
## Requirements
Python `3.8` or greater is required. This project has been tested on Python `3.8` and `3.11`.
Installing dependencies:
1. Install the latest version of MoviePy: `pip install -U moviepy`
2. **Workaround 2023-07-17**: There is currently an incompatibility with Pillow and MoviePy's video.resize() method, so you'll have to downgrade Pillow for the time being: `pip install Pillow==9.5.0`
3. That's all! You should be able to run the main script just fine now: `python3 main.py`
## How to use
Please take a look at the **requirements** above before following these steps.
1. Put a list of desired video sources into the `input_video_sources/` directory, and a list of desired audio sources into the `input_audio_sources` directory. I recommend keeping the video file formats the same, but it shouldn't matter. The resolution of videos does not matter, either.
2. Run the script (`python3 main.py`), and choose a seed if you want to reproduce the same video. Otherwise, type 'any' to choose a random seed.
3. Choose the amount of videos you want the script to merge together to produce the final result. I recommend 30 for roughly minute-long videos.

## Performance
This script uses moviepy - due to the amount of ffmpeg processes moviepy opens from this script, it has really high memory usage. I have seen this script use upwards of about ~2.5GB of memory for 40 random loaded videos. I don't know of a way around this.
## Requirements
- Python `3.8` or greater (this project was tested on Python `3.8`).
- Python module `moviepy`
