TikTok creators break out reactions with the #buffering trend

TikTok creators are using the #buffering trend to showcase their reactions. This trend combines the newest Creative Effect called Buffering with remixed audio from Bo Burnham's latest special, resulting in maniacal laughter and the classic spinning wheel of the internet. Creators have used this trend to depict work problems, the passage of time during COVID, and even share their gender identity. #Buffering allows creators and users to laugh at life's shocking moments and realize that others have similar experiences.

One notable video features Takoda having a ball at the Oregon Zoo. The sound effect "Spongebob" by Dante9k has become popular for videos featuring mischievous characters or events. It sets the stage for enjoyable and lighthearted content, from babies refusing to follow instructions to hidden pets. The Fish Bowl effect allows creators to wear a mini aquarium on their head, similar to SpongeBob visiting Sandy. This effect adds an interesting visual element to videos or can be used to illustrate a point.

In the Creator Spotlight, Jere Chang, an LGBTQ+ trailblazer, shares her life and educates others about the LGBTQ+ community. Growing up in a small town in Georgia, she developed a love for the outdoors and now teaches gifted education at an elementary school in Atlanta, GA. She hopes that her TikTok content, centered around teaching and sharing her fun-loving family, will help people recognize the value of diversity and inclusivity.

In case you missed it, TikTok now offers longer videos. You can also find job opportunities through TikTok Resumes and get insights into the mind of Dillon Francis through TikTok's Headstream.
