-        - `max_size`: The maximum size (number of pixels/characters) for the generated ASCII image.
-        - `grid`: The list of characters to use (from darkest to lightest). If None, uses the default grid.
-- `ImageAscii.from_path(path: str, max_size: int = 10_000, grid: list[str] = None) -> ImageAscii`

-        - `export_type`: If `IMAGE_FILE`, generates a video. If `TEXT_FILE`, generates a custom animated text file (.vid.txt).
-        - `quality`: Determines the generated video codec if the export is a video file.
-        - `sound`: If True, extracts audio from the source and adds it to the final exported video.
-- `print_in_terminal() -> None`
-    - Description: Plays the source video as an ASCII animation directly in the terminal console, respecting the framerate limit (max_fps).
-
-#### Static Methods
-
-- `VideoAscii.print_from_txt(txt: str)`

-## 💡 Usage Examples
-
-### Example 1: Convert and Export an Image
-
-```python
-import ascii_art_python as aap
-# Create an object from a local file
-my_image = aap.new_school.ImageAscii.from_path("my_image.jpg", max_size=50_000)
-
-# Display ASCII in the console
-print(my_image)
-
-# Export the ASCII image in text format (.txt)
-my_image.export("text_result", mode=aap.new_school.ExportType.TEXT_FILE)
-
-# Export the ASCII image as a new readable image (.png)
-my_image.export("image_result", mode=aap.new_school.ExportType.IMAGE_FILE)
-```
-
-### Example 2: Play a Video in the Terminal
-
-```python
-import ascii_art_python as aap
-
-my_video = aap.new_school.VideoAscii("my_video.mp4", fps=15, frame_size=8_000)
-
-# Play the animation live in the terminal
-my_video.print_in_terminal()
-```
-
-### Example 3: Convert a Video with Sound

-```python
-import ascii_art_python as aap
-
-my_video = aap.new_school.VideoAscii("my_video.mp4", fps=24, frame_size=15_000)
-
-# Export the video with sound in MP4 format (Low Quality by default)
-my_video.export(
-    filename="final_ascii_video", 
-    export_type=aap.new_school.ExportType.IMAGE_FILE, 
-    sound=True
-)
-```
-
-### Example 4: Convert a text and print it in the Terminal
-
-```python
-import ascii_art_python as aap
-
-my_message = aap.new_school.ImageAscii.from_string(
-    content = "Hello, World!",
-    font_size = 15
-)
-
-print(my_message)
-```
- 
-## ⚠️ Troubleshooting
-
-### Important Note Regarding OpenCV Dependencies
-
-This project uses **`opencv-python-headless`** for background image processing. 
-
-Please be aware that installing both `opencv-python` (the standard version with GUI features) and `opencv-python-headless` in the **same Python environment** will cause conflicts. Doing so may break OpenCV's display capabilities (such as `cv2.imshow()`) in your other projects.
-
-**To avoid any issues, it is highly recommended to:**
-- **Use a Virtual Environment:** Always install this project inside an isolated virtual environment (using `venv`, `conda`, or Docker).
-- **Check Existing Packages:** If you are installing globally and already have `opencv-python` installed, please remove it first (`pip uninstall opencv-python`) before installing this project's requirements.

+
+## 🔧 Features
+
+- 3 Unique rendering modes: Density (`new_skool`), Edges (`old_skool`), and Hybrid (`full_mode`).
+- Image to ASCII conversion.
+- Video to ASCII animation with sound extraction.
+- Play video directly in the terminal.
+- Export to `.txt`, `.png`, `.mp4`, or `.avi`.
+
+## 📦 Installation
+
+You can install the module via pip:
+
+```bash
+pip install ascii-art-python
+```
+
+## 🚀 Basic Usage
+
+To use the module, import it as follows:
+
+```python
+import ascii_art_python as aap
+```
+
+### 🎨 The 3 Rendering Modes
+
+- The module is split into three main rendering modes. You can access the `Image` and `Video` classes from any of these modes depending on the artistic style you want:
+- `aap.new_skool`: The classic density-based ASCII art mapping pixel brightness to a gradient of characters.
+- `aap.old_skool`: An edge-detection based ASCII style using Canny/Sobel filters to draw contours with line characters (`-`, `/`, `\`, `|`).
+- `aap.full_mode`: A hybrid approach combining edge-detection for sharp contours and density-based characters for shading.
+

+    - Description: Reads and displays in the terminal the content of a .vid.txt file previously generated by the export(export_type=ExportType.TEXT_FILE) method.
+- `VideoAscii.transfer_audio(source_video_path: str, target_video_path: str, output_path: str)`  (Accessible via `aap.ascii_base.Video.transfer_audio`)
+    - Description: Extracts audio from `source_video_path` and applies it to `target_video_path` to generate `output_path`.
+
+## 💡 Usage Examples
+
+### Example 1: Convert and Export an Image (Full Mode)
+
+```python
+import ascii_art_python as aap
+
+# Create an object from a local file using the hybrid "full_mode"
+my_image = aap.full_mode.Image.from_path("my_image.jpg", max_size=50_000)
+
+# Display ASCII in the console
+print(my_image)
+
+# Export the ASCII image in text format (.txt)
+my_image.export("text_result", mode=aap.ascii_base.ExportType.TEXT_FILE)
+
+# Export the ASCII image as a new readable image (.png)
+my_image.export("image_result", mode=aap.ascii_base.ExportType.IMAGE_FILE)
+```
+
+### Example 2: Play a Video in the Terminal (Old Skool Mode)
+
+```python
+import ascii_art_python as aap
+
+# Using "old_skool" for edge-detected contours
+my_video = aap.old_skool.Video("my_video.mp4", frame_size=8_000, fps=15)
+
+# Play the animation live in the terminal
+my_video.print_in_terminal()
+```
+
+### Example 3: Convert a Video with Sound (New Skool Mode)
+
+```python
+import ascii_art_python as aap
+
+# Using classic "new_skool" density
+my_video = aap.new_skool.Video("my_video.mp4", frame_size=15_000, fps=24)
+
+# Export the video with sound in MP4 format (Low Quality by default)
+my_video.export(
+    filename="final_ascii_video", 
+    export_type=aap.ascii_base.ExportType.IMAGE_FILE, 
+    sound=True
+)
+```
+
+### Example 4: Convert a text and print it in the Terminal (New Skool Mode)
+
+```python
+import ascii_art_python as aap
+
+my_message = aap.new_skool.Image.from_string(
+    content="Hello, World!",
+    font_size=15
+)
+
+print(my_message)
+```
+ 
+## ⚠️ Troubleshooting
+
+### Important Note Regarding OpenCV Dependencies
+
+This project uses **`opencv-python-headless`** for background image processing. 
+
+Please be aware that installing both `opencv-python` (the standard version with GUI features) and `opencv-python-headless` in the **same Python environment** will cause conflicts. Doing so may break OpenCV's display capabilities (such as `cv2.imshow()`) in your other projects.
+
+**To avoid any issues, it is highly recommended to:**
+- **Use a Virtual Environment:** Always install this project inside an isolated virtual environment (using `venv`, `conda`, or Docker).
+- **Check Existing Packages:** If you are installing globally and already have `opencv-python` installed, please remove it first (`pip uninstall opencv-python`) before installing this project's requirements.
