@XOreng: If you do drag Reno [and can't find a Genesis] and if i do drag Vincent.. You+Me=Couple? ;)

Also, with partners and learning the dance, i say we have multiple partners when practicing, so that everybody can help out erryone else and we get it perfect C: We could also hold group practices in Auckland, Chch and Wellington etc, to help learn dance aswell? : D

For now i think Khriever and I [if i go through with Aerith] are partners C:

@Number-IX: xD Okay, though I must say, Aerith and Zack'd be adorable.

And that's a good idea I think. It'd help people learn it better, possibly.

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. =D

I'll probably be a loner, or need a lower classman to dance with me lol

Cause I can't dance >.>;;

By Pyro. 13/04/10, 06:03 pm

I'm wearing the official Terra outfit, idk what Olli's doing with Aqua~

I'll ask her when she's next online.

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: box.net box.netr6sapqnbz6
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!)

..../facepalm.
I am now hugely keen for an Auckland get-together-and-learn/practice

I downloaded the music video yesterday, I'll watch it heaps to atleast get the basic idea into my head n_n

@TT
That sounds really helpful :)
