UrbanStruggle Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Use a basic program and converted a MP4 into a GIF for my own amusement! What do you think of it? [Spoiler=My first GIF] [/Spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kakashi Hatake Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 I don't think that this is something that really belongs in the Graphics Showcase section but if I had to give it a critique, the GIF is pretty LQ and you probably could've found a much nicer recording.

I could go to Netflix and record with my phone then convert it into a mp4 or just go ahead and convert it into a GIF, but I gotta see if Netflix has it and the episode in question . . .

You're making this much more complicated than it needs to be. Just find the episode somewhere online, download it, then convert that. It'll likely be a much better recording than a cell phone can offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cin Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Totally agree with Kakashi here. I used to download an episode use a program to take frames every fraction of a second, convert those frames to GIF (I could find a Video to JPG not to GIF)/reduce size then use another to stitch it together. If you can provide a better quality raw file you can make a decent GIF. I haven't made one for a while since Windows 7 cannot help me find dead frames.

Smear Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Could even just go on YouTube, find a clip and download the video, which would be even easier.I've never converted a video into a .gif so sorry if I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cin Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 I believe Photoshop Imageready among others can deal directly with the video. I did remember trialling another GIF maker which I think did from video for the life of me I cannot remember it, but it did do quite good quality animations.

UrbanStruggle Posted April 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 The gif was taken off youtube finding a better version on youtube is very unlikely. Just need to find which episode that features this scene and, i'm half way there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cin Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 HQ youtube isn't always very easy because of the constant copyright claims against the footage, but you can try search on google for download for a series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
