You can use gifs for all kinds of things. Promoting your publication, storytelling, or making announcements. There are a ton of options.<\/p>\n

But what do you do when you want to make your own gifs?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Step One<\/b><\/p>\n

\"gifs\"<\/p>\n

Locate the video with the best GIF material. Is it online and you can\u2019t download it? If you\u2019re using a iMac or Macbook, you can use Quicktime Media Player to capture video playing on your screen.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re doing this open Quicktime, go up to file, and click new screen recording. Instructions will pop up telling you what to do to record. Just save it after you\u2019re done.<\/p>\n
