Most of the time when we want to share videos or animations, we use the normal video formats, but there might be certain instances where you want to have the animation as a GIF image. Although GIF has color limitations and higher size, they are still used for short animations. Video to GIF Converter comes handy in such situations. It is a freeware tool which can create animated GIF images from video files (.avi, .mp4, .mov, .flv etc.). You can select the frames and then create the animated GIF from the video.
The tool has a simple interface, select the video and set the time frame between which you want to extract the frames. You can set the frame size based on your requirement. You can also set the frames per second rate for the video. In the second step, you need to delete the frames which you don’t want to feature in the GIF image.
While saving the GIF file there are few options like color matching (you can set normal or excellent quality) and also playing speed of the GIF file. Video to GIF Converter is a pretty good tool which offers a simple 2-step conversion process with options to resize the output and manually remove unnecessary frames.
