What is this tool?
Turns a section of the video into an animated GIF with its own frame rate and width so the file stays small.
What is it for?
- Create an animated sticker from a short clip.
- Publish a demo that plays anywhere, with no player.
- Pull three seconds of a reaction from a longer video for a message.
Step by step
- 1Upload the video and set the section's start and end.
- 2Choose the frame rate and the GIF's maximum width.
- 3Generate the animation.
- 4Download the file and check the final weight.
How to use it
Section
The GIF keeps only the range between start and end. Short sections produce usable files; beyond ten seconds the weight grows fast.
Frame rate
8 to 15 fps is the usual range: fewer frames make the animation choppier and the file much smaller.
Maximum width
Caps horizontal resolution. A 480 px GIF is already enough for a phone screen.
Examples in practice
Three-second reaction
Three seconds of a video become a 10 fps GIF at 480 px width, light enough to send in a chat.
Interface demo
A 6-second tutorial becomes a GIF and is embedded in the documentation with no player or script.
Frequently asked questions
Does the GIF have audio?
No. The GIF format carries no soundtrack.
Why is the GIF larger than the video?
Usually it is: GIF does not use inter-frame compression like video. Reducing width and fps is what controls the size.
