Okay, here is a blog-style sharing about how I made a “Raul Rosas meme”, based on the instructions and examples you provided:
So, the other day, I was scrolling through my phone, and I saw this video of a fighter, Raul Rosas. Young guy, looked like he was still in high school. Anyway, he started this interview by just yelling out, “Chi Wi Wi…Wooooo!” I was like, “What the heck was that?” I wasn’t the only one who was confused. It seemed like everyone in the comments was wondering the same thing. This is where I got the idea of creating a meme from it.
I started by finding that clip. It was all over the place, but I found a good quality one. Then I downloaded it. Next, I opened up my video editing app. It’s nothing fancy, just something I use to make silly videos sometimes. I’m not a pro or anything. Imported that video clip in and started to trim and cut until I isolated the perfect moment to make a meme from.
Now, I needed some text to go with it. I thought, “What’s something that makes me yell out randomly?” And then it hit me – when I accidentally stub my toe! That’s a universal pain, right? So, I typed out the text, “Me after stubbing my toe”.
I placed the text at the beginning of the clip, so it would appear first, setting the scene. I played it back a few times, making sure the timing was right. And let me tell you, it was hilarious. I added some dramatic music, you know, for extra effect.
- First I found a popular funny song I saw other people using in their memes.
- Then I downloaded it just like I did with the video.
- I imported the song into the video and trimmed it.
- I adjusted the volume and played it a few times with the video to make sure it was all good.
After that, I exported the video. I then uploaded it to a few different places. You know, the usual spots where people share memes. And what do you know, it actually got some good reactions! Some people even commented that they related to the “stubbing my toe” part.
It’s a lot of fun when you see people enjoy something you made, even if it’s just a silly meme. I wasn’t expecting it to blow up or anything. It had a few thousand views when I checked it again last night. I saw one comment that said, “This is me when I drop my phone on my face.” Made me laugh out loud. Some other guy asked what “Chi Wi Wi…Wooooo!” meant. Apparently, even the interviewers were confused about that shout during the interview. It is good to know I wasn’t the only one confused.
Anyway, that’s the story of how I made that Raul Rosas meme. It was a lot of fun to make it, and it looks like it was fun for others too. Pretty simple, really. Just a video, some text, and a random thought. Maybe I’ll try making another one soon.
