Why turn a GIF into a video?
A GIF stores every frame as a separate image with at most 256 colours, so even short animations become large. A MOV with H.264 compresses the frames together and supports millions of colours. The animation usually looks the same or better, takes a fraction of the space and plays smoothly in presentations and video editors.
