Need to Convert MP4 to GIF?

Download the MP4-to-GIF converter from the Movavi website and follow the on-screen instructions to install the program.

Click the Add Media button, then choose Add Video, and select the file you want to turn into a GIF.

GIFs are usually short in length, which means you may need to cut just a small segment from a longer video. To start cutting out your clip, click the Edit button to the right of the imported file.

In the window that opens, place the marker on the timeline to indicate the beginning of the section you want to extract. Click the Scissors icon to cut the video and split it into two parts. Select the part you don't need and hit the Trash Can icon to delete it. If you need to trim the ending as well, then place the marker at the end of the section fragment and do the same. When the footage is the way you want it, click Save and Close.

Click the Images tab and change the preset from MP4 to GIF. Depending on your needs, you can also choose a preset for the desired size.

Hit the Save to button to specify the output folder for the image. When all the adjustments are done, click Convert and wait for the program to export the file. Once the conversion is complete, the folder with your GIF file will open automatically.
