Frequently Asked Questions
What does hue rotate do?
Hue rotate revolves around changes in the hue of the content, giving a “rainbow” or “surrealistic” animated effect. In other words, the color scheme of the content rotates through each hue, which is the origin of each color (red, blue, yellow, orange, violet, and even mixed colors). You can change the hue of a GIF by using a GIF editor with enhancement tools that give you control over hue, brightness, saturation, opacity, and more.
How do you add effects to GIFs?
Apply different filters to GIFs or add any text, animations, elements, and more in a video or GIF editor. Use either a video or GIF editor to add effects to GIFs so you maintain the high quality of your content and so your content remains supported throughout the entire editing and exporting process.
