    Hi Larry,
    Do you know if we can send a motion file directly to compressor and get a GIF that plays in a browser? Every setting I have tried ends up just giving my a folder with an image sequence, dozens of pictures. Can’t get it to make an actual gif (when sent directly from motion).

    Any knowledge or advice?

      Yup. I just did it.

      * Create a Motion Project.
      * Choose File > Send to Compressor. The movie is added to the Job list.
      * In Motion, apply the setting: Motion Graphics > Animated Image (Large). That creates the GIF
      * The rest of the process in Compressor is the same as any other compression project.
