Can iMovie Create Gifs?
Contents

First of all you have to choose the video you want to gif. It has to be in mp4 format because iMovie accepts only MP4 and HDV videos. Now, if the video you want to gif is in another format you will need a video converter and I highly suggest you to use THIS one because it’s free and it’s also pretty easy to use.

Can you make a GIF with iMovie?

Drag and drop your video from the Finder into your first slide. If needed, edit Document’s size to the required size of the final gif image. If needed, trim video in Format->Movie tab. Export Using File->Export to->Animated Gif.
