How Do I Export From Figma to Mp4?

Last updated on September 29, 2022 @ 12:03 am

Figma is a great tool for designing user interfaces and other graphics, but one thing it lacks is the ability to export your designs directly to MP4 format. Thankfully, there are a few workarounds that you can use to get your Figma designs exported as MP4 files.

Option 1: Use LICEcap

LICEcap is a free and open source screen recording tool that can be used to record your Figma designs directly to MP4 format. Simply download and install LICEcap, then open Figma in your browser and hit record. LICEcap will then capture everything that happens in your Figma window and export it as an MP4 file.

Option 2: Use QuickTime Player

QuickTime Player is a free tool that comes pre-installed on all Macs. It can be used to record your screen, and thus also works great for exporting Figma designs to MP4 format.

To use QuickTime Player, simply launch the app and select “New Screen Recording” from the File menu. Then click on the red record button, select your Figma window, and hit start.

Option 3: Use a Video Conversion Tool

If you’re on Windows or don’t want to use either of the above methods, you can always use a video conversion tool like Handbrake or FFmpeg to convert yourFig design into an MP4 file. Simply export your design from Figma as a PNG or GIF file, then open it in the converter of your choice and save it as an MP4 file.

Conclusion:

There are three main ways that you can export your Figma designs as MP4 files – by using LICEcap, QuickTime Player, or a video conversion tool. Whichever method you choose, you’ll be able to create high-quality MP4 files of your Figma designs with ease.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to export a Figma file to MP4, please be aware that this may result in some loss of quality and fidelity. We recommend export to another format such as PNG or JPEG for best results.
