## Installation
### Linux
1. Git clone this repository
2. `sudo apt-get install ffmpeg`
3. `sudo apt update`
4. `sudo apt install git python3-dev python3-pip build-essential libagg-dev libpotrace-dev pkg-config`
5. `pip install -r requirements.txt`
### Mac
1. Git clone this repository
2. `brew install ffmpeg` (or `brew` like manager)
3. `brew install potrace`

6. `pip install -r requirements.txt`
## Using Program
### `ipynb_version`
1. Visit directory `ipynb_version`
2. `jupyter notebook`
3. `./ipynb_version/DrawImage.ipynb` is for drawing images.

## How is this possible?
1. Extract frames of video by [ffmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org)
1. Convert image to vector images using [pypotrace](https://pypi.org/project/pypotrace/).
2. Represent those contours using Bezier curves.
3. Use `matplotlib.pyplot` to draw Bezier curves using some features.
4. Save those `pyplot`s into images.
5. Use [ffmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org) to turn those images into video.
