Video to GIF — Trim, Frame Rate, No Watermark
Create GIFs from any video directly in your browser. Our free converter lets you trim the exact segment, set frame rate and size, and generate a high-quality GIF — all without uploading your video to any server. No watermarks, no signup, no limits.
GIF is a poor video format and a good sharing format, so every setting here exists to fight file size. Frame rate matters most: 25 fps is smooth and roughly triples the file compared with 10 fps, which for a short UI demo or a reaction clip is usually indistinguishable. Width is the second lever and duration the third. The estimated size updates as you adjust them, so you can land under a Slack, Discord, or forum limit before you generate rather than after.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert a video to GIF without a watermark?
Upload your video to our tool, select the segment, adjust frame rate and size, and click Convert. The GIF is generated locally in your browser with no watermark. Other online tools often add watermarks on free plans.
What video formats can I convert to GIF?
MP4, WebM, AVI, MOV, and MKV are all supported. MP4 is the most common and works with almost all devices and software.
How do I make the GIF file size smaller?
Reduce the frame rate (10 fps is usually enough for most GIFs), reduce the width, or shorten the clip. The tool shows the clip length as you set the start and end, and warns you past about 15 seconds, where GIFs get very large.
Why is my GIF so much larger than the video it came from?
GIF has almost no interframe compression and is capped at 256 colours, so it stores something close to a full image per frame. A five-second clip that is 400 KB as MP4 can easily be 5 MB as GIF. Cutting the frame rate and the width is the only real remedy, which is why both are exposed here rather than hidden behind a preset.
