Although it may seem that GIF files are something modern, they are not. In the 90s, when many users created their own web pages through GeoCities, many of these were packed with GIF files that showed elements of a work or a worker chipping stone (if you are a talludite you will surely remember these pages).
Thanks to the messaging apps, GIF files have a second youth again. Thanks to this format, we can share our feelings of any kind with a moving image. As it has become a very popular format, it is very easy to find GIFs of any theme.
In the Mac App Store we can find a large number of applications that allow us to create GIFs from videos in a simple way and with a large number of options, such as GIF Brewery 3, an application that offers us so many functions that it is sometimes very complex to use and that is priced at 5,49 euros in the Mac App Store.
A more than interesting alternative and completely free is Gifski, an application that allows us to convert small video clips into animated GIFs. The application allows us to select the exact section that we want to convert through the included editor.
All GIFs we create through this application are limited to 50 fps, which allows us to obtain a file with an ideal size to be able to share easily through any messaging application or social networks. Once we have created the GIF, we can copy and paste it directly into the application where we want to share it in addition to saving it on our hard drive.
Includes an extension that allows us to share video directly with the application. Gifski is compatible with all the formats compatible with macOS and allows us to change the final size of the GIF file.
In order to use Gifski our team must be managed by macOS 10.14.4 or later and 64-bit processor. The application is in English but the language will not be a problem to get quickly with the application.
