Downscaling - Using ASCII art in Command Prompt to play Outside In

A brief segment of Outside In turned into ASCII art and played on Command Prompt via a batch file. See below for more details

---DESCRIPTION ---

Using what little knowledge I had on command line codes, I did my best to generate an animation for Command Prompt. It was a lot less automated then I would have wanted, but I'm happy with the results. The batch file is pretty simple, basically printing over each frame with a new one after a slight delay.


I attempted to use a command line interface program to automate ASCII art generation, but I wasn't able to figure out how to do it. The only ASCII art generator I could fine that used CLI required python, and I had trouble running the module (https://pypi.org/project/ascii-art-cli/).


The ultimate goal is to automate the whole process, making longer videos much easier. I was originally hoping to run a similar program on a 1986 Macintosh Plus, but first I'll need to get past the boot screen. This video has acted as a fun proof of concept while I figure out the boot disk.



I don't have much experience with creating jobs and developing workflows. Let me know if you have any advise or programs to look into!
