Guidelines for animated images
We prefer you send us the highest resolution videos you have, but the minimum image width should be at least 1125 pixels for best results.
Videos should be wide (landscape) — the ideal aspect ratio for videos is roughly
20:16(aka4:3.2wide).Videos will be automatically center cropped square (
1:1) to be used as a thumbnail on Morty. Please ensure a square center crop will look good.
We will cut the videos down for you so that they fit our target format:
File format
webpLength 5-10 seconds
Max file size 5 MB
Max dimensions 1125px x 1125px
Max suggested frame count ~120 — can be higher, but the file size still shouldn't exceed 5 MB
