Title: Caramelldansen
Post by: UruseiNeo on June 25, 2008, 12:30:12 AM: I'm sure most of you have heard of the popular Caramelldansen trend on youtube. I've seen Death Note Caramelldansen... DBZ Caramelldansen... SOS Brigade/Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Caramelldansen... Zelda Caramelldansen... even Super Smash Brothers Brawl Caramelldansen!

But I haven't seen any Urusei Yatsura Caramelldansen!!!

Has anyone created UY Caraelldancers? If so, is there a video made yet and where?

If not... we need to make one!

For those of you who HAVEN'T seen any Caramelldansen, here's a link to an anime mix of Caramelldansen:

Post by: Akazukin on June 25, 2008, 01:06:01 AM: Oh I seen it...But I can't make one Because:

1) where am I going hide it?
2) how can I make one?
3) would you guys even watch it?

Oh, and there a VG Cats one too UruseiNeo
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: UruseiNeo on June 25, 2008, 03:52:53 AM: Why would you hide it?

To make one, I think first you need 3 OR 5 frames of a character. One facing left, one facing right and one up. If you wanna make it look better, you'll make two more frames with the character in between the left and center and between the right and center. And that's just the one character, need background and maybe a few more characters to dance.

I'd be able to make the animation, but making the characters would be a bit difficult for me.

Of course we would watch it!!!

There are a lot more than the ones we have o far mentioned too.

Post by: FallinG_StaR on June 27, 2008, 01:01:03 AM: LoL... what the hell is this? This is so... so... Kawaii... XD ...and you want to make a UY one? There's one already you know... 2 actualy... we can say UY was pionier in that thing... Lum1 (http://youtube.com/watch?v=iVr3Dqw5wuU) & Lum2 (http://youtube.com/watch?v=qRBHpW9GpI0&feature=related) and if you want more here's another... Lum & Ataru (http://youtube.com/watch?v=jlt3V7x-32A&feature=related) and another one Lum (http://youtube.com/watch?v=Nuv-1MaiayU&feature=related)

(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/f4/Caramelldansen.gif)

I think the Swedish band that made the music are the ones to blame... LoL

Post by: UruseiNeo on June 27, 2008, 02:15:44 AM: Those are 4 endings of Urusei Yatsura, not caramelldansen UY.

Caramelldansen UY would be like one or two characters doing that exact dance in the video you just posted. Hip to the left hip to the right, wavey wavey wavey, and with a ^_^ face

Yes, these are two completely different things.
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: FallinG_StaR on June 27, 2008, 02:58:47 AM: Hmm... Caramelldansen is just a gif image looping with a backgroung song LoL.. you'll see that at least 3 of those endinds are able to become caramelldansen material... just put Lum dancing on loop and with the song Caramelldansen on background and what do you get??? You get a Lum Caramelldansen... LoL

Well if theres a SOS Brigade Caramelldansen like this SOS (http://youtube.com/watch?v=UC-n0F_y2LE&feature=related) Then I think it would be ok to do the same to UY even if its not the same thing...

Now... If only I could find a Lum.gif with her dancing... XD

Hmm... I like this one too... LoL LoL (http://youtube.com/watch?v=dePd1JDYliI&feature=related)
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: UruseiNeo on June 27, 2008, 06:49:49 AM: In my opinion, a TRUE caramelldansen needs to have that home made character factor. If one simply took a piece of and ending and looped it it would be like "Yeah... that's nice,"

That is easily within my experience to do.

There are TWO things that make the caramelldansen enjoyable:

1. The song
2. The caramelldanCERS in that exact format. Otherwise, it's just like any other AMV.

Do you get what I'm trying to go for? I never said it would be easy, but that makes it all the more enjoyable to watch when it gets done.
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: FallinG_StaR on June 27, 2008, 04:59:28 PM: ;D Yes I know where you're trying to go... Just make 2 rights and 1 left... and you should be there... :P

But getting the "caramelldanCERS in that exact format" is going to be hard... at least if its for UY...
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: GiovaneDinamitardo on June 27, 2008, 05:31:12 PM: A far reference of Ataru and Lamù is in this AMV (http://youtube.com/watch?v=pTWqV_LvSCM&feature=related)
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: Kroptik on June 27, 2008, 05:38:37 PM: I don't think it's a reference to UY... not just because they have green hair at least (no horns even).

And yeah it's going to be hard to find models to make it, since I've never seen Lum or Ataru do a face like that ever...

Maybe you could try doing something different with clips of UY. My fave caramelldansen video (http://youtube.com/watch?v=gKgCkdDZd5Q) is much better then two characters just swinging hips in my opinion. :P

Considering this song isn't even from an anime, it sure is getting a lot of attention from it. o.0
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: GiovaneDinamitardo on June 27, 2008, 05:42:44 PM: I don't agree: we could find something of similar into the episode "school party", where Ataru and Lamù are dancing face to face and side by side.
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: UruseiNeo on June 27, 2008, 06:07:29 PM: To do a true Caramelldansen, we can't use clips from an episode.

We need someone who can at the very least DRAW the character(s). I would be able to colour them in and sync them to dance if I get the needed poses.

Unless someone volunteers, I guess I can go scan the 3 or 5 poses for a reference and try to use that as a template for making our own characters

Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: UruseiNeo on June 28, 2008, 03:54:54 AM: Ah yes I have seen this one, thank you.

In order to make a true Caramelldansen we need to make the caramelldanCERS by hand. This might be as hard as it seems.

Lets start off easy, is there anyone who can get 3 OR 5 pics of the caramelldansen poses, it can be from any caramelldansen as long as it's the same dance. The one to the left, right, center and iff possible, the inbetweens.

This can be used as a template. I just need the 3 or 5 pictures, doesn't matter what they are shaped like..... but I would appreciate humanoid...
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: SandStorm on June 28, 2008, 03:24:54 PM: then we can use the pic posted here by forgotten :)
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: UruseiNeo on June 28, 2008, 06:27:00 PM: If I can figure out how get the still pics from that, I would but I don't know how.
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: SandStorm on June 29, 2008, 01:10:33 AM: easy gif animator 3 can do the work for you! ;)

I used it and it gave me 14 pics T_T That was way more than I was expecting.

Okay, so we have to make 14... hmmm.... is anyone good at art?

Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: UruseiNeo on June 29, 2008, 04:34:29 AM: How bout this, I'm gonna start by using the examples I have to make a basic template

basically, an outline of the pose.

That will be step one
Step 2: Which character we gonna do first, Lum or Ataru or other?
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: SandStorm on June 29, 2008, 07:42:01 AM: lum, for sure :P

or oyuki and benten.

or lum and ran
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: GiovaneDinamitardo on June 29, 2008, 10:51:04 PM: Lamù, Ran and Benten would be the TOP: everyone is so sexy ;D ;D

LoL... That was what I did to make the one I posted...

I would go for Lum and Benten... I think its easier because they have only bikini type clothes... XD
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: UruseiNeo on June 30, 2008, 04:16:41 AM: I think what I had in mind would be easier:

I print out the clip and trace an outline for the basic template

Then I put it back on the computer and someone can fill in the empty outline by hand or by computer

Post by: UruseiNeo on December 23, 2008, 02:28:14 AM: You think so too? Yeah, even after taking Japanese as a course, this doesn't sound right to me.

But at one point I think I heard "Nihon" which means "Japan"

Hmmm... maybe it's German? I dunno, anyone actually know what it is?

There are definetely different words in that song.

Post by: FallinG_StaR on December 23, 2008, 02:42:55 AM: No... one is from SpeedyMix... or Cake... Chipmunk version... LoL

The other is just a regular voice... Well... the "Nihon" that you heard... if you pay attention to the original Caramelldansen... its there to...

Ok... I've checked the lyrics... thats not the Original Swedish song... but its not japanese... because they use phrases from the original lyrics...

So to sum all this up, it's not swedish... even though you said it was...
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: FallinG_StaR on December 23, 2008, 03:18:31 AM: Yeah... but at least I was the one to admit I was wrong... but anyway... to sum all this up...

Dansa medoss
Klappa era hander
Gor so vi gor
Ta negra steg at vanster
Lyssna och lar
Miss inte chansen
Nu ar vi har med Caramell Dansen!

Bold is swedish... parts that you listen on the "japanese version" so unless its some kind of cross between both languages...

I say case is closed...
Title: Re: Caramelldansen
Post by: UruseiNeo on December 23, 2008, 03:47:49 AM: I still wish I knew what the official language of that video was. The video description said Japanese that's why I put that in my post, but I didn't think it was really Japanese either.

Anyways, perhaps we should delete some of these posts?
