Complex usage
This example generates a comments video, using the Azure TTS service, with alternating voices.
Azure key information is saved for future usage, so it does not have to be specified each generation.

Extending
The library itself is completely modular and by implementing the various interfaces at your disposal, the videos generated can be completely changed. Refer to the docs for more detail on how this is currently achieved.
