How to Convert Movie to GIF

About GIF

GIF stands for Graphics Interchange Format. As it only supports 256 colors, GIF is the best format for images that are flat, with limited colors and crisp detail. GIF files can also contain animation, creating files known as animated GIFs. Animated images in GIF are commonly used on websites, emails and in instant messaging. Unlike static GIFs, animated GIFs move and catch the viewer's eyes. To turn movie clips into animated GIFs that play as if you're watching a short movie would be fun.
