MP4 to GIF
Convert an MP4 to a GIF: trim it, speed it up and pick its size. It all happens in your browser, so the MP4 never leaves your device.
or drop it here. MP4, MOV, WebM and more; nothing is uploaded.
How it works
- Choose an MP4, or drop it on the page.
- Drag the start and end to keep the part you want, then pick the speed, width and frames a second.
- Press Make GIF, then Download.
Questions
Can I turn just part of an MP4 into a GIF?
Yes. Drag the start and end under the preview to keep only the part you want; the GIF shows exactly that, at the speed you pick.
Is it free?
Yes. GIFs up to 30 seconds long and 800 pixels wide, with no watermark and no sign-up.
Is my video uploaded?
No. Brume reads the video in your browser and makes the GIF there. Nothing is sent to a server, so it works the same for private recordings.
How do I make the GIF smaller?
Make it narrower and use fewer frames a second: 480 pixels at 10 frames a second is often a tenth of the size of 800 at 25. A shorter trim, or a faster speed, helps too.
Why does my GIF look grainy or banded?
A GIF holds 256 colours. For footage from a camera, turn on Dither: it trades bands for a fine, even texture. Screen recordings look best with it off.
Which videos work?
Any video your browser can play: MP4, MOV, WebM, M4V and most MKV. If one won't open here, your browser can't play it either; try another browser.
