# Using Animated images in Remotion
## Basic usage
Use `<AnimatedImage>` to display a GIF, APNG, AVIF or WebP image synchronized with Remotion's timeline:
```tsx
import {AnimatedImage, staticFile} from 'remotion';
export const MyComposition = () => {
return <AnimatedImage src={staticFile('animation.gif')} width={500} height={500} />;
};
```
Remote URLs are also supported (must have CORS enabled):
```tsx
<AnimatedImage src="https://example.com/animation.gif" width={500} height={500} />
```
## Sizing and fit
Control how the image fills its container with the `fit` prop:
```tsx
// Stretch to fill (default)
<AnimatedImage src={staticFile("animation.gif")} width={500} height={300} fit="fill" />
// Maintain aspect ratio, fit inside container
<AnimatedImage src={staticFile("animation.gif")} width={500} height={300} fit="contain" />
// Fill container, crop if needed
<AnimatedImage src={staticFile("animation.gif")} width={500} height={300} fit="cover" />
```
## Playback speed
Use `playbackRate` to control the animation speed:
```tsx
<AnimatedImage src={staticFile("animation.gif")} width={500} height={500} playbackRate={2} /> {/* 2x speed */}
<AnimatedImage src={staticFile("animation.gif")} width={500} height={500} playbackRate={0.5} /> {/* Half speed */}
```
## Looping behavior
Control what happens when the animation finishes:
```tsx
// Loop indefinitely (default)
<AnimatedImage src={staticFile("animation.gif")} width={500} height={500} loopBehavior="loop" />
// Play once, show final frame
<AnimatedImage src={staticFile("animation.gif")} width={500} height={500} loopBehavior="pause-after-finish" />
// Play once, then clear canvas
<AnimatedImage src={staticFile("animation.gif")} width={500} height={500} loopBehavior="clear-after-finish" />
```
## Styling
Use the `style` prop for additional CSS (use `width` and `height` props for sizing):
```tsx
<AnimatedImage
src={staticFile('animation.gif')}
width={500}
height={500}
style={{
borderRadius: 20,
position: 'absolute',
top: 100,
left: 50,
}}
/>
```
## Getting GIF duration
Use `getGifDurationInSeconds()` from `@remotion/gif` to get the duration of a GIF.
```bash
npx remotion add @remotion/gif # If project uses npm
bunx remotion add @remotion/gif # If project uses bun
yarn remotion add @remotion/gif # If project uses yarn
pnpm exec remotion add @remotion/gif # If project uses pnpm
```
```tsx
import {getGifDurationInSeconds} from '@remotion/gif';
import {staticFile} from 'remotion';
const duration = await getGifDurationInSeconds(staticFile('animation.gif'));
console.log(duration); // e.g. 2.5
```
This is useful for setting the composition duration to match the GIF:
```tsx
import {getGifDurationInSeconds} from '@remotion/gif';
import {staticFile, CalculateMetadataFunction} from 'remotion';
const calculateMetadata: CalculateMetadataFunction = async () => {
const duration = await getGifDurationInSeconds(staticFile('animation.gif'));
return {
durationInFrames: Math.ceil(duration * 30),
};
};
```
## Alternative
If `<AnimatedImage>` does not work (only supported in Chrome and Firefox), you can use `<Gif>` from `@remotion/gif` instead.
```bash
npx remotion add @remotion/gif # If project uses npm
bunx remotion add @remotion/gif # If project uses bun
yarn remotion add @remotion/gif # If project uses yarn
pnpm exec remotion add @remotion/gif # If project uses pnpm
```
```tsx
import {Gif} from '@remotion/gif';
import {staticFile} from 'remotion';
export const MyComposition = () => {
return <Gif src={staticFile('animation.gif')} width={500} height={500} />;
};
```
The `<Gif>` component has the same props as `<AnimatedImage>` but only supports GIF files.
