The following gives a quick overview of making video to GIF.  Step 1: Open a video in the Snagit Editor or use Snagit to record a video of your screen. Step 2: With the video open in Snagit Editor, separate the red and green played handles, placing them at the start and end time of the portion of the video you want to make into a GIF. Then, click the GIF button. Skip this step if you want to make your entire video into a GIF. Step 3: Choose whether you want to create your GIF from the selection or the whole video. Use the dialog that appears to make customizations like a fade to black at the end of the clip. When done, click Create. Snagit produces your GIF and displays it on the canvas. Now you can share it with the world!
