i have a video where i explain this better

but anywhay, premiere pro doesn't play the entire gif it starts laggy and then stops by the midle of the gif

there is the video

Premiere Pro Gif dont play corectly - YouTube

    Correct answer juanmario

    what i want to do is only see the sword and the text not the background
    so i thought a gif is better

    you are saying i should créate a video?
    if i make the gif in to a video and place it over another video it's not going to be transparrent right?

    i want to add that animation in a corner of the video but not like a tiny square in to the corner, only the sword and the text
    you can't do that with a video...
    and i don't want to make that animation every video i make, just have something to drag and drop over a video and position it in the corner, that's it...

    Allow me to recommend reading this help from Adobe, in the course of it you will know how to export a video with alpha channel from Photoshop, with transparency.

    https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/saving-exporting-video-animations.html

    Or also:

    File> Export> Render Video, Change the format to Quicktime

    In the Alpha Channel, select Straight - Unmatted.

    Render

    What is the configuration of the sequence and resolution of the gif?

    changed the size
    there down right corner where it says percent 100%
    down to 5
    maybe it was too much pixels, nothing, maybe it was the editor tryed to export like that... but no... still laggy in the final result

    Premiere Pro is not made for use of animated gifs inside the timeline. This has to do with the format of animated gif, which does not work with fixed frames per second.

    Best is to edit the Animated gif in Photoshop, send out each frame as a separate file (psd, jpg, png or tiff formats will do) and then reimport the files as a sequence. My advice is to use After Effects for this, although I do believe you could do this with PPro as well.

    Hope this helps.

    then, another way of doing that?
    how can i add a watermark in every video? i want a gif or something like that in every video....
    better switch to hitfilm express? xD

    to add every frame and stuff like that is too much work, imagine doing that every day...

    now im in after effects and i hit spacebar, i guess that's play

    and it took like 30 sec to play a 10 sec video

    what's wrong? im using this method to make a gif

    Start to learn animation basics in After Effects.

    Photoshop was made for editing photos, not making animations. Animated gif is an animation structure intended for online use, not as a format for editing. Just stay away from that workflow.

    After Effects is made for this. Once you have (re-)created the composition there, you can reuse (or tweak it) as much as you like. And you can even drag & drop the AEP file right into PPro (aka dynamically linking).

    Here's a link to get you started:
