3) After the transcription is complete, click on "Publish" and then select "Export".

4) Choose GIF as the export format and save the file to your desired location.

5) Review the transcribed text for any errors and make necessary edits. Descript makes it easy to correct any mistakes, ensuring your transcription is accurate.

• Reduced File Size: GIFs are significantly smaller than MOV files, making them easier to share and store.
• Faster Loading Times: GIFs load more quickly on web pages, enhancing user experience.
• Compatibility: GIFs are universally supported across all browsers and social media platforms.
• Looping Animation: GIFs can loop indefinitely, perfect for creating engaging, repetitive content.
• Easy Embedding: GIFs can be easily embedded in emails, websites, and presentations without the need for a video player.

• Trim Unnecessary Footage: Before converting, use Descript to trim any unnecessary parts of your MOV file to keep the GIF concise and focused.
• Adjust Frame Rate: Lower the frame rate to reduce file size without compromising too much on quality. A frame rate of 10-15 fps is often sufficient for GIFs.
• Optimize Colors: Limit the color palette to 256 colors to ensure the GIF remains lightweight while maintaining visual clarity.
• Set Looping Options: Decide whether you want your GIF to loop indefinitely or a specific number of times, and adjust the settings accordingly in Descript.
• Preview Before Export: Always preview the GIF in Descript to check for any issues or necessary adjustments before finalizing the export.
