How to make a meme GIF

A caption turns a clip into a meme. A2ZGIF's Text tool handles the common formats and lets you style your own.

Make a meme GIF

  1. Add a clip. Upload a video, a GIF, or a few images.
  2. Open the Text tool. Add top-and-bottom meme text, a white caption bar, or a speech bubble.
  3. Style and time it. Choose any font, color, and outline, and set which frames the text appears on.
  4. Add stickers. Drop in emoji stickers wherever they fit.
  5. Download. Export a GIF, or an MP4 or WebM video.

Tips

  • Keep the text short. GIFs loop, so a few words land better than a sentence.
  • Use an outline. It keeps text readable on busy footage.
  • Check the size. Posting to Discord? The Discord GIF maker keeps it under the limit.

For the whole toolset, see the GIF maker.
