This weekend, I decided to take a break from developing and make an animation. This meme has been floating around my recommendations recently, so I decided to hop on the trend too. (I think you’ve seen this too once or twice.)
I don’t know why, but while I was rendering this something in my head told me “You should show behind the scenes footage to the public”, so here it is:

(I don’t know if that’ll show up as an embedded video and I can’t upload it as a direct video. Sorry for the inconvienience!)
So other than me animating Yume and making the gradient background, I decided to try something a little different.
The glitter that apperars in the background over and over? That’s just a circle I insetted, cut out and drew an alpha texture on.
I turned the bloom on and made the texture emissive too.
What I would usually see in the other version of the “So feminine” memes is a circle getting big and gradually dissapearing by the beat. I thought this was going to be a pain to animate manually, so I decided to use drivers.
I appended a custom rig I made for characters and edited it a bit.
The left slider is fot the circle’s size (I made a shapekey, shrinking the circle) and the right one is for it’s visibility.
(That one fat bone in the middle is just the driver rig’s root. I didn’t need it here.)
The clouds in the background? I made a cloud model a while ago, so I appended that, duplicated it a couple of times and made it all into one object. All it does in this animation is move down slowly, so it looks like Yume is falling through the sky.
I’m 1,000% using this as a wallpaper.
Welp, that’s about it. I hope you like the animation!
Have a nice day!
