How to make and optimize a GIF

GIFs are perfect for short, looping moments — reactions, demos and memes. Making one is quick, and a little optimization keeps the file small enough to share anywhere.

Turn a video clip into a GIF

The most common way to make a GIF is from a short video. Pick the clip and convert it to a smooth, looping animation.

Build a GIF from images

Have a sequence of stills? Stitch them into an animated GIF — handy for step-by-step demos or simple animations.

Optimize so it loads fast

GIFs can get heavy quickly. Lowering the frame rate and size keeps the animation smooth while making the file far smaller.

Convert a GIF back to MP4

For long animations, an MP4 is much smaller than a GIF and plays everywhere. Convert when you need the file size down.
