GifGun 2
The highly anticipated upgrade of the original GifGun is finally here!
Experience the future of GIF making with the all-new GifGun 2.
Keeping true to the original 1-click workflow with compression, batch render and tons of settings, GifGun 2 adds lots of new features.
GifGun Features:
Anything GIF
GIFs are so much more than just .gif format now. That’s why GifGun 2 supports .mp4 and .webm with the same cool 1-click experience now
Render Presets
Just like in the After Effects, but also shareable as JSON files!
GIF compression
Get even better file size with the GIF compression. Saves 15% on average.
Target Size Optimization
This Experimental feature allows you to get to the target size. Restrictions apply.
COMING SOON: Standalone App
GifGun 2 will soon be available as a standalone web app that does not require After Effects and does not share any data to any cloud, imagine that!
Rendering with Alpha channel
The only one-click way to get a GIF with Alpha channel.
Batch Render
Select multiple compositions in Project panel and get all GIFs in one click.
GIF compression
Get beter file size with GIF compression. Saves 15% on average.
Super GIF quality
Experimental Engine allows you to render gradients and complex scenes with very little detail loss. At the price of larger file size
Keeping true to the original 1-click workflow with compression, batch render and tons of settings, GifGun 2 adds lots of new features.
Good to know
GIFs tend to get pretty large when you increase duration, resolution or color count (in any combination). We’ve added Compression feature to help you keep the size low,
GIF color palette is limited with 256 colors for the whole animation, so the more colors you have, the lower is the final result quality. That’s why we introduced Experimental Render feature to help you get the best visual quality. It helps jam more than 256 colors in one GIF, at the cost of the larger file size.
We put a lot of effort to make this GifGun a true One-Click tool and hope you will love it as much as we do.
