3 Ways to Export GIFs from After Effects - AE Fundamentals

In this After Effects Fundamentals lesson, you'll learn how to export (render, in After Effects language) your animation as a .gif file. GIFs can be useful on the web because they play automatically and can loop forever. There are 3 ways to render a GIF, but it can't be done with After Effects alone. You'll need either Adobe Media Encoder or Adobe Photoshop (both are included in a Creative Cloud subscription) or a paid After Effects script called GifGun. All 3 ways are covered in this video. 👀 Watch the After Effects Fundamentals playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGfHurvYEHhWWFIii-Mx0sJbylKAM0Dlh In this video: 0:32 Adobe Media Encoder 2:56 Adobe Photoshop 8:03 GifGun, purchase here: https://aescripts.com/gifgun 10:42 More About GIFs ➡️ Check out the visual notes that accompany this video to help you quickly remember how to do something in After Effects: https://www.meganfriesth.com/aefundamentals/gifs ⬇️ Download a cheat sheet of After Effects keyboard shortcuts: https://animationexplained.gumroad.com/l/beginnerAEkeyboardshortcuts ➡️ Optimize Animated GIFs for Quality & File Size: https://youtu.be/izLxd8DkWtk ➡️ Learn how to make seamlessly looping animations: https://www.meganfriesth.com/class/looping My website: https://www.animationexplained.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/animationexplained Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/explanimated/ Get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare: https://www.skillshare.com/animationexplained
