PermissionError: [WinError 5] Access is denied python using moviepy to write gif

I’m using windows 8.1 64 bit

my code

import pdb
from moviepy.editor import *

clip = VideoFileClip(".\\a.mp4")
clip.write_gif('.\\aasda.gif')

the exception is at write_gif method

Traceback (most recent call last):

PermissionError: [WinError 5] Access is denied

I moved the script to another folder and partition, running moviepy dependancies and python as admin, turning off UAC still gives me error
