Convert MOV to GIF using FFmpeg and ImageMagick

I tried a few different techniques to make a GIF via command-line and the following gives me the best control of quality and size. Once you're all setup, you'll be pumping out GIFs in no time!

Preparation

Install FFmpeg

$ brew install ffmpeg [all your options]
- Example: $ brew install ffmpeg --with-fdk-aac --with-ffplay --with-freetype --with-frei0r --with-libass --with-libvo-aacenc --with-libvorbis --with-libvpx --with-opencore-amr --with-openjpeg --with-opus --with-rtmpdump --with-schroedinger --with-speex --with-theora --with-tools

Install ImageMagick

Broad Request, Broad Approach

Vol. 1: Offline Websites

The Request

Client wants a 2-3 page mini-site. Some pages are static (Home, Contact) where the content will never change and dynamic (Product page) where client has the ability to add/remove new products to a gallery or list of products.

Client also wants for the site to be accessible when they don't have access to an internet connection (at an event or visiting retailers, customers, etc).
