Step by step

  • Decide which 10 clips you will use

  • Capture these clips as video files (.mov or .mp4) by using Screen Recording, Zoom Screen Share, ripping from YouTube or, if none of these work, recording off the screen with another device.

  • Trim any excess footage using a simple video editor

  • Use Photoshop to crop each clip in a 500 x 500 pixel square and convert to a looping animated GIF
