Glitzz

A video generator in Python. Don't ask me why.

from PIL import ImageDraw
from glitzz import Glitzz


app = Glitzz(initial_color="#27365d")


@app.frame
def draw_frame(canvas, position, duration):
    """
    `canvas` is a PIL image. It's your canvas, draw on it
    `position` is current frame's time in seconds
    `duration` is length of the clip
    """
    draw = ImageDraw.Draw(canvas)
    draw.line((0, 0) + frame.size, fill="white")
    draw.line((0, frame.size[1], frame.size[0], 0), fill="white")
    return canvas


print("Serving at port 8000. Run: ")
print("    %s" % app.get_ffmpeg_command())
app.run()

This creates a 10-second video with frames like this:

Let's run it:

$ python yourapp.py  # `python -m glitzz` to just run the default demo
Serving at port 8000. Run:
    ffmpeg -framerate 25 -f image2 -i http://localhost:8000/%d.bmp -vframes 250 filename.mp4

$ ffmpeg ...
