Learn how to extract frames from any video - it's easy with filmora. You can instantly make still images, jpegs/pngs of your favorite movie, film, or online video.

Step 1: Import your video clip

Import the media file first either by using the app or via drag and drop on the main window. Videos will show as thumbnails in the library so you can choose the one you need without a problem. Next drag them to the Video Timeline and get ready for step 2.

Step 2: Extract frames from video

Start playing the desired video and then pause it when it reaches the right moment. Right click it and select "Flash and Hold". Immediately, there will be a picture icon added to the whole clip. Play it to check the real-time effect.

If you want to get the same resolution frame as the original, click the video in the Media Library and then click the Play button in the Preview Window. Take a screenshot when the video is playing simply by pressing the Snapshot icon or via pressing CTRL+ALT+S.

After you are satisfied with the results you will be able to export your content. Click Export to start the export process, then choose the desired output format. You can easily customize the output file resolution and other settings depending on the format you choose.

Very nice... what about extracting video clip in order to use it with screen split?

Make sure you set the quality of the video to full before snapshotting. You may get the scaled down snapshot but I can’t confirm. I also have a discolouration at times to the actual frame using this method. I currently use photoshop to import frames and edit them there but must first export a smaller clip in Filmora as large files aren’t recommended to import to photoshop.
