The way the characters zoom in and out so perfectly and the foreshortening just makes me want to watch this for hours! The combination of smooth and quick animations is too die for! I just love this!

USEFUL INFO: This song is actually called ‘There’s Something Happening’ by Jack Stauber. UwU

[@noirgyh6127]

I wonder why they are calling it close up

[@kevincloud574]

USEFUL INFORMATION The meme is called close up

[@noirgyh6127]

@@kevincloud574 i know but i am wondering why they are calling it close up when the songs name is there, kinda misleading

[@kevincloud574]

@@noirgyh6127 To answer your question the meme is called "close up" because as you already know that's a line from the song. The artistic animation follows in line with this, well line 'close up" by showing a kind of close up on the beautiful characters along with a clip of the song, as a visual representation of the phrase "close up". In modeling a close up was simply a closer picture of the model, focusing on the face and body with little background. As we can see in these various parody memes, the beautiful characters as they're portrayed focuses on a close up as the words "close up" are sung, although not necessarily implied to be a photo shoot. I think that's just it, and ad long as the youtuber gives credit in the description to the artist if the song, it isn't going to matter what the title of a meme is going to be. Now I only recently discovered videos being called memes. I thought that was stupid, but who am I to judge, you know? It appears that the point of memes is pointless except as an expression of opinion, joke or art

It's amazing how this was derived from possibly the weirdest song ever. As always, great animation.

[@StarriiDreams]

This looks really choppy compared to Moto Moto and OwO What’s This I understand why for the crazy detailed character but it’s just weird and off to me Obviously I’m not meaning to hate, but clearly I’m gonna need to say this

[@ConfettiCasket]

Yeah, it's pretty easy to tell that they rushed this out so they can post it while the meme was still relevant. I feel like putting a little more time into it would've helped a lot. the art is pretty good but the movements are really stiff and choppy. and its a very noticeable drop in quality from their usual stuff. It's kind of jarring.
