• Frame Rate: Lower FPS = smaller file size, Higher FPS = smoother animation
• Quality: High quality preserves colors but increases file size
• File Size: GIFs are typically larger than videos - trim your video first for best results
• Best For: Short clips (2-10 seconds), loops, reactions, and social media posts
Upload your video file, select your desired frame rate (FPS), choose the quality level, and click 'Convert to GIF'. The tool will process your video and create an animated GIF that you can download. Higher FPS creates smoother animations but larger files.
Our video to GIF converter supports all major video formats including MP4, AVI, MOV, MKV, WebM, WMV, FLV, and more. Any video file that plays in your browser can be converted to an animated GIF.
Choose 5 FPS for smallest file size and simple animations. 10 FPS offers balanced quality and size for most uses. 15 FPS creates smooth animations suitable for social media. 24 FPS provides cinematic quality but creates larger files. Consider your use case and file size requirements.
To reduce GIF file size, use lower FPS settings (5 or 10 FPS), select low quality setting, trim your video to include only essential frames, or reduce the video resolution before converting. You can also use our video trimmer tool first to shorten the video.
GIFs use a different compression method than modern video formats. Each frame is stored individually with limited color palette, which can result in larger file sizes for the same content. Videos use advanced compression across multiple frames. GIFs are better for short clips and loops.
Yes! You can control GIF quality through two settings: FPS (frame rate) and quality level. Higher FPS creates smoother motion, while the quality setting affects color accuracy and detail. High quality preserves more colors but creates larger files.
Absolutely! All video to GIF conversion is performed entirely in your browser using client-side processing. Your video files never leave your device and are not uploaded to any server. This ensures complete privacy and security of your video content.
GIFs are perfect for social media posts, reaction images, short tutorials, product demonstrations, memes, email signatures, and website animations. They work everywhere without requiring a video player and auto-play by default, making them ideal for quick, engaging content.
