make a small gif from a video
Mark a short clip, keep 12 frames per second and 480 px of width and look at the estimate line: it shows frames, dimensions, duration and the approximate file size before generating. If it is large, the Fit to a target size field lowers width and FPS for you.
A 5 s clip at 12 frames per second, normal speed: 60 frames.
Twice the length and 25% more FPS multiply the frames by 2.5.
The same clip with double the frames weighs almost double.
The height follows the 16:9 ratio and is rounded to an even number.
230,400 against 129,600 pixels per frame.
At 2x, 6 s become 3 s of GIF, or 30 frames at 10 per second.
The height exceeds the width, and is also rounded to even.
Pick the file, mark the clip and click Generate. The tool extracts frames with the browser's own player, draws each one on a canvas and builds the GIF in memory, all on your device. Nothing is sent to a server, so there is no queue, no upload limit and no copy of your video anywhere.
The tool accepts 5 to 30. For ordinary motion, 10 to 12 frames per second is already acceptable; below 8 the motion visibly jumps. Screens with text and slow scrolling tolerate fewer frames, and sports or games call for 15 or more.
Because the resulting GIF sits in browser memory until download and grows without compression between frames. There is a warning from 10 s and a block above 30 s, 1500 frames or 300 million pixels in total. For long clips, a short MP4 or WebM video is the right format.
Yes, unless you use aspect-ratio crop, which trims the frame to 1:1, 16:9, 9:16, 4:3 or 3:4. The tool never upscales: if you ask for 640 px on a video that is 320 px wide, the GIF comes out at 320 px.
Conversion happens in your browser. The video is not sent to any server.
