Video to ASCII effect
by jporter313 on Oct 22, 2007 at 11:15:32 pm

So I need to convert a video to ASCII art. I found this brief tutorial:

http://www.asciipr0n.com/4096/ascii-aex/ascii.html

However, when he says

"create an array of ascii characters in after effects. Now you map the darkest parts of the image to characters like . , : and you map the brightest parts of the image to characters like 3 8 #"

I get the basic concept of what he's saying but I have no idea how I would execute this in After Effects. Can someone help me figure out how to accomplish this? Thanks.
