Rendering is a very computer intensive process and so rendering times can sometimes be longer than expected. Not sure how unusual that is, as several posters on this forum have from time to time complained of slow rendering times. This will save to Photos.A rendering time of 6-7 hours does sound slow for a 1 hour 20 min video with no editing. Once it’s done tap the big blue Share button and tap Save Image. In the next screen choose Export at the top right. On the next screen tap on ‘Export’ and choose Animated GIF.
And on the projects screen long press (tap and hold) your project and choose ‘Share’. Select your video and it will be inserted into your Keynote.ģ That’s all you have to do! Now tap the back arrow at the top left. Once your new project, tap on the photo/video icon (for users on older versions of Keynote you might need to tap the ‘+’ first). Open Keynote and start a new project (make sure it’s 16:9 Wide and not 4:3 Standard you can change this by tapping the ‘…’ in the top right of the screen before you start the project).Ģ. You now have a moving image in your Photos but it is a film file, we want it to be a GIF so it will play in a continuous loop without sound.ġ. Step Two: Covert Your Moving Image to GIF Press done in the top left and when you are on the project screen look for the Share button at the bottom of the screen and tap Save Video. In a second or two iMovie will automatically remove the green background.Ĥ. Then put the video with the green background on the top layer by pressing ‘…’ and then ‘Green/Blue Screen’. Put the video you want as a background on the bottom layer by tapping on it and pressing ‘+’.
Once you have your two shots, combine them in iMovie. We sure that on our screen the whole background was green, no sneaky walls or extra furniture in shot.ģ. We filmed people dancing, waving or giving thumbs up for four seconds in front of the green screen (green backing paper, green cloth, anything bright green will usually work). We made a four second background video with the event logo and a nice sparkly red effect (we used Canva for this but you can use anything you like to make the background!).Ģ. Here is how we made our green screen GIFs:ġ. If it is footage of real people iMovie is your go to. If it is animation apps like FlipaClip or iMotion might be helpful. What app you use here depends on what you are making. It seems like there are a lot of steps but once you get the hang of it you’ll be making GIFs in no time! Making a gif is a simple process using a combination of built in apps which are on your Connected Falkirk device as standard. They are also a really fun way to engage pupils while also building some handy digital skills. How Can Animated GIFs Be Used In The Classroom?Īnimated GIFs can be used to convey a message, explain a process, visualise a quotation, practice spelling, celebrate an event or milestone, promote an idea or an event…the list goes on. We recently joined our friends at the Falkirk Learning Resource Service for the RED Book Awards where we made animated GIFs with green screen, but you don’t need a green screen to make your own! Some companies make GIFs as part of campaigns or promotional materials as they get a message across in quickly and are more eye catching than static images. They are often seen online using sections sampled from film, television and YouTube videos. Make animated GIFs to show or celebrate learning with iMovie and Keynote.Īn animated GIF is a short moving image with no sound that plays repeatedly in a loop.
