Turn a short clip into a GIF
A GIF plays automatically and loops everywhere — in chats, docs, and issues — without a player, which is why it's the format of choice for a quick demo or reaction. This tool converts a short video clip into an animated GIF in your browser. Keep clips brief, since GIFs grow large quickly.
How to use it
- Drop in a short video.
- Set the portion and options you want.
- Create and download the GIF.
Tips for small GIFs
- Keep it a few seconds — length drives file size fast.
- Smaller dimensions mean a much lighter file.
- Simple motion compresses better than busy, detailed scenes.
Questions people ask
Why is my GIF so big? GIF is an old, inefficient format for video-like content; trim the length and size, and use a real video where the platform allows it.
Is my video uploaded? No — conversion runs locally in your browser.
