Oh, this is really fun! I just recently learned about animation memes and would love to do a few of my own sometime (in fact, I'm planning to try my hand at one this weekend :o ). It's such a fun and niche little community and there's so much good content out there!

Since I don't really have a contribution to make right now, I'll just share some good software for folks interested to try out animation memes/animation in general! The latest version of Krita supports both animation and uploading music so it's great for making lip-synched animations for those who can't afford the more expensive computer animation programs out there. It's completely free! It's kinda fiddly but there are lots of great tutorials online for how to use it in general, and it's open source so you could probably find some great, customized versions out there built for more streamlined animation!

I really like your two memes! They're very fun and well timed--I've always been fond of pixel-style memes, too! What program do you use for them? I've typically done my pixels in Piskel but it doesn't support audio which makes it pretty inconvenient for animation memes :/

@TheAwesoMew
Hello there! Thank you so much for your interest and kind words!

I use Piskel as well, but I do some crazy stuff to add the audio :/

1. Make the animation in Piskel
2. Screen-record audio on my tablet
3. Email the Piskel as a gif to myself
4. Download the gif as an image on my tablet
5. Add it and the audio of the screen-record in iMovie
6. Sync it up
7. Download it and upload it OR email the downloaded .MOV file to myself and upload it from my computer.

Thanks to you, I should be able to make things a LITTE bit less complicated :/

I've yet to actually make an animation meme myself, but I absolutely love them! I do plan on eventually giving it a try, and I guess if/when I do, I'll post it here :)

@Razatharia

Cool! I’ll be waiting!

@TheAwesoMew
P.S My next A.M Will be using a song from one of my fave games ever.

I love them all! I've never seen a pixelized animation meme, and I am living for it!

I actually have my own YT channel where I post lots of animation memes, as well as MAP parts. I'm not the best, but I've certainly been improving. Here's one of my more recent ones:

I use a mix of IbisPaintX, Flip-A-Clip, and Kinemaster on my phone. :)

@AngelFire335

Thank you for the kind words! I absolutely LOVE your stuff you do btw!

Also, a funny thing is, I put two of of my OCs: Pitch and Italik in there, and Pitch is slightly based off of searchers from BATIM....so yeah :/
