Startup Guide

1. Download the script (autoclip.py)
2. Download all the required packages (the list of package requirements are inside the requirements.txt)

pip install [package-name]

3. Fill in the variables. They are marked inside the main section. You will need a background video, an image, and a content (a story to tell)
4. Run the script

python autoclip.py

Ta-da! Everything should be generating and rendering the video.

If somethings looks off with the video, please tweak the variable inside the clip() function to adjust.

nice script! are you posting these videos? do you think this approach is suitable for yt shorts also?

@aproxis hey there, thank you. i don't see why not, go ahead :)

when i run the code it says "No module named 'moviepy.editor'". i pip installed moviepy. can you help me figure out what is going on?

@OchoaHelp hopefully this helps harry0703/MoneyPrinterTurbo#535
