Choosing the right part of your video

The best GIFs are short and focused: a reaction, a moment of action or a quick demonstration. Play the MOV in Photos or QuickTime, note the second where the moment starts, enter it as the start time and choose a length of 2 to 5 seconds. Short GIFs load quickly and loop smoothly.
