Slides to Video & GIF
Export slides as PNG frames to Drive for a GIF or video — plus GIF hook
slidesgifvideoexportpng framesdrive
Turn a Google Slides deck into a set of high-quality PNG frames in Drive — the exact input every GIF and video tool needs — and, optionally, build an animated GIF automatically through a render service you configure. WHAT IT DOES • Export slides as PNG frames (the core feature, always works) — every slide of the active presentation is saved as a high-quality PNG into one neatly named Drive folder, with a direct link to grab them. • Build an animated GIF (Pro, optional) — if you run an external rendering service, paste its endpoint URL and the add-on POSTs the frame URLs to it and saves the returned GIF to your Drive. HONEST NOTE ON RENDERING Google Apps Script cannot natively render video or GIF — there's no server-side ffmpeg available to add-ons. So the core, always-working capability here is per-slide PNG frame export. Those frames finish the job in any editor (Photoshop, GIMP, ezgif, ffmpeg, your video editor). The GIF feature is an optional external hook: you bring the renderer, the add-on hands it the frames and stores the result. Nothing is sent anywhere unless you configure a URL. GREAT FOR • Building a looping GIF preview of a deck for social or email. • Feeding clean per-slide frames into a video editor. • Archiving each slide as a high-quality image. FREE & PRO • Free: up to 10 slide frames/month. • Pro: unlimited frame export plus the GIF-building hook. 14-day full trial. Privacy-first: uses current-document-only and per-file Drive scopes — the add-on only touches your active presentation and the frames folder it creates for you. It never lists or reads the rest of your Drive. Fast support and frequent updates.
