Turn a few seconds of video into an animated GIF. Choose the moment, width and frame rate, crop or rotate it, and save it on your device.
Try the 12-second practice MP4, a public synthetic clip with labelled moving shapes and a quiet tone. Add it, open Exact times and set Start to 2 and End to 6.
Choose 320 px, 10 fps, Speed 1× and Loop forever. Press Play selection, then Make GIF. Review the loop and download it; GIF has no sound, so the practice tone will be absent.
If a real clip is too large for your destination, shorten the selection or reduce its width and check the new file's actual size. Keep an MP4 when you need sound or a longer recording.
Select up to 30 seconds of source video. Speed changes playback duration. Output is capped at 300 frames, so a long selection at a high frame rate or slow speed can end before the selected source range ends. Review the generated GIF.
GIF is an old format with simple compression. Halving the width reduces the pixel count to roughly one quarter, and fewer frames per second usually reduce the file size further. Actual byte savings depend on the picture and its movement. For long clips, send an MP4 made with Trim Video instead.
Yes, Loop forever is on by default. Turn it off to play the GIF once.
No. Frames are decoded and the GIF is written in your browser on this device.
