When you capture clips sometimes they are too long or don’t get to the point right away. Nobody has time for that.
Cut to the best part in seconds with easy trimming. Start using it in one click, on all Gyazo video pages. No extra apps, no extra steps, no time wasted.
This is one of many features included only with Gyazo Pro so upgrade now to make your screen clips really shine. If you haven’t downloaded the Gyazo screenshot app yet, do that first.
How does easy trimming work?
Capture a screen clip with Gyazo Replay or with Gyazo GIF.
After the video uploads, go to the new page and in the top bar click the trim button.
Move the yellow bar to the start and finish time you want then click trim.
…and you’re done. Your new clip will be shown while the original is still saved so you can go back at any time to make new clips.
People love short, focused video clips.
Next time something interesting happens you capture it casually and later trim down to the best parts. Viewers will surely appreciate you saving their time.
This is a clip I trimmed to the moment of my first #1 finish in Fortnite. It took me less than a minute to capture, trim, and share it.
Cut right to the good stuff in games and apps.
With all the interesting ways to do things, all the exciting highlights, and all the fun that happens, it’s a shame nobody ever sees most of those moments. Your friends and followers will love seeing the best parts you capture right away.
Speed is key to success.
When sending and receiving a message faster is better. When easy triming is used with full HD capturing and new audio recording included with Gyazo it’s a powerful new combo for fast screen sharing.
Thanks for using Gyazo Teams to share screenshots and screen GIFs.
We’ve just released a Chrome extension specifically for teams that makes it easier to share quick feedback, buried data, and tricky bugs right from your browser
🚀
Take a picture in the app and it works like the desktop version: Images are auto-uploaded and a new link is created so you can paste in any other app.
Of course you can also upload directly from your phone’s library to share previous images and new screenshots you take.
Note: To browse your capture history the app will transition to our mobile web experience.
Use Gyazo across Mobile and PC
Log in with your Gyazo account to manage all of your Gyazo images, screenshots, and GIFs regardless if they started on your mobile device or computer. If you don’t have it already you can Download Gyazo instant capture and sharing for your computer.
(Translated from the Japanese interview, available here.)
Unity technologies, the creator of the popular game development tool by the same name has offices around the world and are closing on #1 market share for game engines. Unity’s development team leverages Gyazo every day for collaboration between their remote teams.
For our second visit with companies using Gyazo, join us at Unity’s office in Japan.
(Unity’s Mascot Unity-Chan and Gyazo’s Ninja-kun out in public together!)
The staff at Unity Japan is made of many pro gamers who have gone on to make professional game tools. They have a stylish office in the first ward of Roppongi, in Tokyo.
They use so many scientific and technical terms so quickly that it made me a little nervous.
Starting from left, we have the engineer Mr.Ando, business development manager Mr.Someya, and creative strategist Mr. Yanase. These are the 3 people that gave answers to my interview.
Ando and Yanase are both already Gyazo Pro users, and they all use Gyazo regularly for work.
Beginning of Interview
Q: Now, first off… what unusual water bottles… you have original Unity-branded water?
A: Yanase: “Yes, my team felt motivated to make products like this. Haha”
Haha, it’s too bad we don’t have this at Gyazo… I hope this is not beyond our scope. It would be nice to have an opportunity like this.
Q: Next I’d like to hear about the time you first started using Gyazo. A: “Gyazo is less trouble. It’s good for capturing desktop screenshots that are smaller than full screen.”
(This character was created for Unity Japan by one of their users and captured with Gyazo.)
Q: How did you start using Gyazo?
A: Ando: I think I started when I was a student and there was something I wanted to share. At that time there was no way… I thought there were no good tools to share the image from my screen. My first thought was to ask my followers on twitter.
Yanase: I wanted a way to save time in chat– I wanted an easier way to share. I thought it would be good if i didn’t have to save after taking a screen shot. At that time one of my teachers, Mr. Masui (also the CTO at Gyazo currently) showed me Gyazo and I noticed many people around me were using it too. I thought “Really? This is a pretty popular tool”.
Ando: I have been a Pro user for two or more years.I cant remember when I started using it… Someone shared a gyazo image with me that made me laugh. I spent that year using it really frequently… but my memory of when exactly I started using it is unclear, haha.
Each of them are now using Gyazo freely, but they have not been using it as much to share with other people. It seems that there are many different ways they are using it.
Next I asked how it is used in their work.
“By showing things directly in Gyazo we can work more smoothly together. We also use the drawing function a lot for support needs.. haha”
(Here we can see our CTO Masui-san in the bottom right when we visited their office to talk with them.)
Q: How do you use it for work?
A: Ando: Not only do I use Gyazo to share with others but also Gyazo GIF.
Yanase: I use it to give examples of using the editor such as “When you want to do it this way, you can also try this option”.
Ando: That’s true. There are many things that are hard to explain to our other offices because my english is not the best, haha. At first I was making a lot of videos but recently I have been using Gyazo GIF to make them more quickly and easily.
(Here is an explanation video showing a feature that makes it possible to move through a block from the bottom in a 2D game. It was taken using Gyazo GIF.)
Yanase: I’ve also used it for still images. At a seminar for Unity we made a description of how to use the tool. When taking a screenshot with Gyazo, it’s often used to write commentary and add it to a presentation. For this I often take screenshots with Gyazo, write some comments, and then add the images to a presentation. Because I take them very often, I used to quickly accumulate a lot on my desktop when using the normal OS screenshot function.
(Here is an example of Yanase’s how-to materials where he is capturing with Gyazo and adding text about the different functions for clarity.)
Someya: I’m not an engineer but I am doing web production, events, and overall team management so I use it most often to make clear instructions. I often make PowerPoint presentations and share changes with web designers.
For example “Can this be moved a little?” Until now I did this with text, and typed out where to look in an image separately. However, using Gyazo I was able to say “Here it is” “Here is a typo” “Move this part here” directly on the image. We’ve been able to move work forward more smoothly by specifying with Gyazo “here” is where it should be.
(It is much easier to understand because key areas are clearly indicated with a screenshot image, pointer arrows, and text.)
Ando: Haha, In fact, about 30 minutes ago I used Gyazo to give a customer support. They asked “Where can I download the Unity software?” and i wrote “Please click here” on a screenshot using the drawing function.
Q: Wonderful… they are using the GIF and drawing function perfectly. If there was a Gyazo dojo they would definitely be top-level black belts. Up to this point we’ve seen many good uses, but it could be used for bookmarks too?
It can also be used to bookmark websites that are hard to find and then find them easily later so I had to ask them about that.
(Here is a sample collection of the Gyazo staff’s favorite restaurants to go for drinks.)
Q: Next, have you ever used Gyazo for bookmarks?
A: Yanase: I am using it for that too! Speaking of websites that are hard to capture… It is easier to understand because it is saved as an image. After I capture with Gyazo I can keep it for later on my iPhone so it will be nice to use in that sense too.
Ando: I will use it too. Rather than using text-based bookmarks, it’s just like trying to copy it to Evernote, but it takes a little more time and effort to start and find things in Evernote. Gyazo seems a little easier and better.
Indeed, Unity team! Thanks for completely mastering the tool!
Next we talked a little bit about Gyazo teams.
“Because there are some things that can’t be shared with the world, with the security of Gyazo Teams I can have peace of mind.”
Q: For a little publicity, we introduced the Gyazo teams features to everyone.
A: Yanase: For teams are there new accounts?
Q: Yes, and there are separate apps for Teams too.
A: Yanase: Since there is big demand for the arrow and annotation functions, it is much better to start using Teams as a company rather than using Gyazo Pro individually.
Ando: At our company we are using slack, and if you search for “Gyazo” there were 6 or 7 people that shared screenshots.
Yanase: Outside of Japan slack was not being used by Unity staff. It was only used in Japan but we told the other offices "Slack is amazingly convenient" and as a result we began to use it company-wide. So, we are likely to use Teams company-wide.
Ando: Since it is free for the trial period, let’s try it. If people use it and want to keep it we can also tell our other offices… haha
Yanase: Many useful tools we use originate from the Japanese staff, haha. I think many people will talk about Gyazo and the Gyazo Teams applications. Since it is nice and really easy to use, I think having Pro and Teams side by side in the dock is very good.
Ando: It might be a little extra time and effort in my case because when I put the name of the application in Spotlight it’s less convenient to have two.
Yanase: Also the security level of Teams gives peace of mind when there are things you absolutely do not want to be seen outside the company.
Ando: I will absolutely use it!
Q: Oooh! So I just introduced the functions of Gyazo Teams and they had a tremendous understanding of its potential! So, the story of Unity Japan is very similar in their offices around the world. Next I asked how it was used by their overseas teams.
A: “Overseas Unity offices are also taking Screenshots for development use and support such as in the previous answers, the same as we use it in Japan."
(Woah! Unity-Chan! "Are you making an in-house demo?” said Ando. This was captured with Gyazo GIF.)
Q: How are people in the overseas offices using Gyazo?
A: Ando: Inside Unity Copenhagen it is used frequently for development by the engineering team, or for support. How they use it is not different than we do it in Japan.
Yanase: And the three of us are using Gyazo all the time.
Q: How about for support? Is there a support desk team in Japan?
A: Ando: I do that and use it daily for support. And I use the Pro version because there are no ads. haha
This was a great conversation to have because everyone is using Gyazo all the time with each other. This is the end of our post about Gyazo features and how it has been fully embraced by the Unity team.
With that, there is just one more thing!
(4 People made friends with one click to capture the moment! (Actually it’s five people including Unity-chan!)
To Mr. Ando, Mr. Someya, and Mr. Yanase of Unity Japan, thank you for taking the time! Please continue to revolutionize the world of game development!
