# Convert Video to GIF

> Turn a short clip into an animated GIF: pick the section, set size and frame rate, done. No watermark and no upload.

GIFs work well for short screen recordings in a how-to, for bug reports or for the team chat. Load a video, mark the few seconds you need and get a GIF without a logo on it.
