| Arrgggh... I've tried to send the music video to people, but my mailing accounts only letting me send attachments up to 25MB. Sorry Rengen and Freddie.
So instead, I'm gonna break the clips down into smaller bits and try to post them somewhere where you can download them.
Anyway, Ive looked at the first 27seconds (the intro before the first verse) obsessively and I think I've figured out- or in some places made up- what they're doing, even when the camera is off the dancers and on the band. To help learn the dance, I've added captions to help (so that everyone learns the same thing) however Id like other opinions pls .
For starters, has anyone else here had any Ballroom lessons? I did for 4-6months, so I know the basic steps. But I reckon that overall its a foxtrot given that the song is 4-4time, (rather than a waltz, where its 3-4 time, or Oom-pah-pah) .... am I making any sense? I'd like to discuss what we do when the camera is off the dancers, or when there is obviously been some editing to the dance (i.e. when the dancers are in one position and then impossibly are doing something else).
Anyway a trial of what I'd like to do with the whole song, I've put up the first 14seconds (3.6MB) with captions here: http://www.box.net/shared/r6sapqnbz6 you should be able to download it. M= the Man's part, W=the Woman's part.
Even if you're not too sure on the technical dance stuff, pls give me some feedback of (1)whether you think this is helpful, or (2)whether you know or have another idea on how we can learn this.
(P.S. I am even more excited about this Dance now, and I was Mega-enthused before!) |

| Is there any chance we could have a short rehearsal after Saturday of geddon, to confirm partners and make sure everyone is on the same page?
EDIT: Or even after Sunday geddon/before the ball |

| hey~
Due to plan changing things I don't know if I'll be able to bring Cinderella with me. Sorry but at this current point in time I will not be part of this group.
I will probably be wearing a victorian Dress I made for my interview on the Sat. It will be big/heavy and I don't want to carry another dress up if I have that one >_<; |

I'm still in as BBS Terra, and partner wise, maybe I should go with Olli, since she's cosplaying Aqua?
Don't put that down as a definite thing yet-- but it's an idea.
Also, if you need someone to announce the group, and you can't find anyone to do it, then I'd be happy to. Olli is a cool person and don't think she'll mind. (:
Hell yea I'm a cool person XD
I'll be Pyro's dance partner ^^
And I'm doing a formal version of Aqua (which is pretty much just changing her shorts into a skirt XD) |

Re: Auckland Ball Group- Kingdom Hearts ( Important update ) By TinTango. 14/04/10, 05:25 pm |
| Awwww... thanks for the encouragement guys! Are you all okay if I just keep on posting bits like this then? That way we can help make the dance more uniform. I'll post them bit by bit, then people can discuss what they think about them- any problems or thoughts etc. I'll also put them on youtube, so ppl can see what Im talking about too if they cant download.
Like KK suggested, I'm keen for a practice before the Ball, sat evening sounds good, as does Sunday day... (reminds me of the Single Ladies rehearsals). But I'm actually gonna ask for the whole week off before Geddon, if anyone wants to meet up earlier and practise. I'll look towards staying at the backpackers too, for any random rehearsals.
Also, is anyone going to the Welly Ball or NZAE? I'd like to do some teaching/demo vids there, and possibly at Doujin Overload/Auckland Ball. |

| I'm sure I can spare time from ACB to practice a bit, but the week before Auckgeddon I'm mega busy at school so count me out on that one. |

| @Roxas- thats okay, I'll post up a reminder for practices, on this thread, when the ACB gets closer.
@Khriever- DDR? That's a great idea! I'll think of some creative way of incorporating DDR into learning it. Although it would be pretty tough as there are no diagonals, and mostly we're dancing on diagonals. |

| A practice at ACB would be okay for me, not so much DO as I have a table and can't leave it too long. |

| Hrk, I don't have a partner either (does any one even know the name of Snow White's 'speshul' prince, anyway?). Unless I find seven tiny men, stack them on top of each other and dance with them... I don't think I'll be dancing.
What a shame >>
I'll take pictures? 8D |

Maybe TinTango, because he's going as the Beast ?? and winds- of - despair ( Meg from Hercules ) is still looking for a dance partner. (:
The name of the prince from Snow White is called " Prince " |
