Encoded locally — your footage never uploads

Video to GIF

Turn any MP4, WebM or MOV clip into a looping animated GIF — trim, resize and set the frame rate, all privately in your browser.

GIFs are the universal language of the web — perfect for short loops, reactions, product demos, and tutorials. Resizor's video to GIF converter turns your MP4, WebM, or MOV clips into animated GIFs right in your browser. There's no upload and no server: frames are decoded with the browser's WebCodecs API and encoded to GIF locally, so your footage stays completely private.

Because GIFs can get large quickly, Resizor gives you the controls that matter: trim to the exact moment you want, downscale the dimensions, and choose a frame rate between 8 and 30 fps. The result loops forever and is ready to drop into a chat, an issue, a slide, or a social post. It's completely free, with no watermarks and no daily limits.

Frequently asked questions

Q1Is the video uploaded to a server?
No. Resizor uses the browser's WebCodecs API to decode video frames and encodes the GIF locally with gifenc. Your video never leaves your device.
Q2Why is my GIF file so large?
GIF is an old format limited to 256 colors per frame and no real compression between frames. To keep files small, trim to a short clip, reduce the dimensions, and lower the frame rate.
Q3What frame rate should I use?
12–15 fps is a good balance for most clips. Higher fps looks smoother but produces much larger files. For simple animations, 8–10 fps is often enough.
Q4Does the GIF loop?
Yes. GIFs created with Resizor loop forever by default.
Q5What video formats can I convert?
Any format your browser can decode, including MP4 (H.264/H.265), WebM (VP9/VP8/AV1), and MOV.
