Countdown Video Maker

Make a countdown timer video with a ring, film leader or bar, beeps, and a clear background option for overlays.

Free, no uploads, no sign-up. Runs 100% in your browser.

How Countdown Video Maker works

Every frame is drawn on a canvas at full size, then the ffmpeg engine joins them into H.264 MP4, VP8 WebM with a transparent background, or a GIF. Beeps are made as a WAV in your browser and mixed in.

Output: MP4, WebM, GIF.

How to use Countdown Video Maker

Tips

• Shorter clips and lower resolutions process much faster.
• Processing speed depends on your CPU; plug in laptops for long jobs.

Countdown Video Maker FAQ

Are my files uploaded?

Is it free? Are there limits or watermarks?

Free and open source (MIT). There are no file-size caps, daily quotas, accounts or watermarks.

Does it work offline?

Yes, once the page (and any engine it needs) has loaded, it keeps working without a connection thanks to the service worker cache.
