Create branded GIFs

Add title frames and use the built-in typography and animation controls for branded intros.

Overview

Title frames let you add branded context without leaving GIF Creator for another design or video tool.

Workflow

  1. Open the editor for a project with extracted frames.
  2. Select Title Frame in the toolbar.
  3. Choose the insertion point.
  4. Enter title and subtitle copy.
  5. Adjust colour, font, alignment, effects, and timing.
  6. Preview the animation, save the frame, then encode.
Insert title frame modal
The insert modal lets you place a synthetic title frame before you start fine-tuning typography and motion.
Title frame editor
The full title frame editor combines canvas preview with tabs for text, colours, typography, effects, and timing.

Explore every title-frame tab

Use the tabs to move from copy to styling to motion:

Title frame Colours tab
The Colours tab controls the background, title colour, subtitle colour, and quick swatch choices.
Title frame Typography tab
The Typography tab lets you tune font family, weight, size, italic settings, and letter spacing.
Title frame Effects tab
The Effects tab exposes shadow and stroke controls for stronger contrast and branding.
Title frame Timing tab
The Timing tab controls hold, fade, and animation behavior for the final GIF.

Good use cases

After a title frame is inserted, hover it in the frame strip to move it up or down in the sequence. If you need to remove it, the same hover controls also let you delete just that title frame or trim from that point onward.

  • Product demo intros
  • Branded callouts for internal presentations
  • Start and end cards for instructional GIFs
  • Additional context for a cropped or redacted screen recording

Animation options

GIF Creator supports these animation effects:

  • Fade
  • SlideUp
  • SlideDown
  • ZoomIn
  • ZoomOut

These are driven by hold, fade-in, and fade-out timing values that are stored with the title frame configuration.
