Video to GIF
Turn any moment of a video into a looping GIF. Trim the exact clip, pick the frame rate and width, and let FFmpeg build a sharp 256 colour palette in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.

How to make a GIF from a video
Add a video
Drop in an MP4, WebM, MOV or MKV file. The FFmpeg engine loads on first use.
Trim and tune the clip
Set the start time, clip length, frame rate and width to control both quality and file size.
Download the GIF
Preview the loop and download a GIF that plays anywhere, from chat apps to forums.
Why use MediaForge Video to GIF
Sharp colours, not mud
A two pass palette build gives every GIF its own 256 colour table instead of a washed out default.
100% private
FFmpeg runs as WebAssembly inside the page. Your video is never uploaded, not even briefly.
Free, no watermark
No account, no credit system and no logo stamped on your GIF. Convert as many clips as you like.
Control over every frame
Exact clip trimming
Play the built-in preview, pause on the frame you want and capture the start time in one click. Then set the clip length to the second.
Use case: highlight reels, reactions, tutorialsOptimised 256 colour palette
The converter analyses the actual clip first, builds a palette from those colours, then applies it with a dithered re-map. Gradients and skin tones survive.
Use case: product demos, UI walkthroughsFile size in your hands
Frame rate, width and clip length are the three levers that decide the final size. Drop the width to 320 px and the frame rate to 10 and the GIF shrinks fast.
Use case: chat stickers, email, forumsLoops forever
Output GIFs are saved without a loop count, so they restart automatically in browsers, chat apps and slide decks.
Use case: social posts, presentations, docs
