Create Branded Reaction GIFs For Slack
In this guide, you will learn how to make custom, branded reaction GIFs for your company’s Slack using Higgsfield (an image and video generator). The trick is to generate the starting frame before you animate it.
- Go to Higgsfield image gen, decide the GIF’s look, and enter the reaction’s visual style and text, like “ESPN themed reaction gif with words ‘SLOW DOWN’”
- If your brand is not recognizable, attach your logo or another brand reference image while generating the still
- Generate a few stills and pick the best one, then click the camera’s Animate button on that still so that it becomes the start frame in Higgsfield video
- Then, set the clip length to 3 seconds, turn off its audio, and prompt: "Reaction GIF". Finally, download the MP4 and turn it into a GIF with any MP4-to-GIF site
- Pro tip: If you make a whole batch of MP4s, ask Claude Code to convert them to GIFs in bulk on your desktop so you do not have to use a converter site one file at a time.
