Happy Easter!
Let's find a script that enables us to change image to ascii text!
To The Point
Img2Txt
Firstly let's check img2txt.
Installation
To install that type of utility I use pipsi. Install using:
pipsi install img2txt.py
Testing img2txt
Since it's Easter I decided to check some of the Easter-Bunny pictures as in this blog to use it with img2txt.
Image I'm going to use to check img2txt:
.
And the result looks like this:

MotionDesignStudio script
There is also another ascii movie image ver 1 py.
The Readme is very convenient to know how to use it.
Fixing issues with script
Well... I tried to use the script itself, but unfortunatelly after a bit of digging I've found it lacks proper information about package used and has some issues.
First of all I had few TabsError (inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in identation).
So I went to vim and used vim command :retab. Saved file.
Then I needed to fix dependencies problem.
So I figure out why not create project out of it to have all the relevant files in one place.
As the result here is the link to project at github. It contains Pipfile and Pipfile.lock - for easier usage with pipenv.
Usage
I suggest you to get the version from my github project since it has fixed some issues.
git clone https://github.com/anselmos/ascii_movie_image_ver1.git
Then :
cd ascii_movie_image_ver1 && pipenv install --python 3.6
pipenv shell
Using on pipenv shell:
python ascii_movie_image_ver_1.py image.img 4 16
Results of using:
