You need to install requests. Open up a terminal or a command prompt and type

pip install requests

Why is this necessary? Shouldn't `pip install moviepy` take care of that? – bers Oct 30 '18 at 14:13
Because the stacktrace shows an `ImportError`. It can't find the `requests` package. The stracktrace doesn't mention `moviepy` – ltd9938 Oct 30 '18 at 14:42
