Add effects and filters to a GIF

Grade a GIF like a photo: brightness, contrast, saturation, hue-rotate, sepia, plus tint and grain looks — with live preset thumbnails rendered by the same code that bakes the final file.

Every frame is decoded to full colour, filtered, and re-encoded with per-frame palettes so the look holds up.

Grade a GIF like a photo

Brightness, contrast, saturation, hue-rotate and sepia, plus tint and grain looks, let you restyle a GIF completely. Live preset thumbnails are rendered by the same code that bakes the final file, so previews are honest. Every frame is decoded to full colour, filtered, and re-encoded with per-frame palettes so the look holds up.

How it works

  1. Drop your GIF and open Effects.
  2. Pick a preset or dial in your own filter mix.
  3. Apply and download.

Like every pixelpix tool, this runs 100% in your browser: your file is never uploaded to a server, never leaves your device, and works even offline once the page has loaded.

Frequently asked questions

Do effects change the file size?
They can. Heavy grain or strong colour shifts can affect how well the GIF compresses; the result is re-encoded for quality, and you can run it through Compress afterward.
Can I preview before applying?
Yes — preset thumbnails and a live preview show the exact look, rendered by the same functions as the final bake.
Can I stack effects with other edits?
Yes. Apply effects, then crop, caption or compress the result — edits chain together.
