  • Today, Alstroemeria Record's remix of "Bad Apple" turns fifteen years old. This Touhou song has undoubtedly changed the internet (and we've talked about how in the past), but there's still a bit more to talk about. Join me as I cover Bad Apple's impact on the demoscene, and the animation's illusive extended version!

    • @3RDplayer
      @3RDplayer 2 года назад +17

      I mean, this version was on the concert. Which means someone from Alstroemeria still got it or has contact to who made it. And given how more popular and more mainstream touhou becomes as of late... (or maybe it just appears to me this way because I'm very actively partaking/lurking in all my favorite japanese creators outings). It is just a matter of time to receive the real deal instead of fancreations of this fancreation. I mean, we can hope so, right??

    I'd love to see a video about the animation of the original version, I'd love to know how it was made. Who was involved in its creation, what software and techniques they used. What the 3D models looked like before they were made into shadow art.

    • @BonnieBuggie
      @BonnieBuggie Год назад +6

      I have a feeling it’s hand-animated - most animation software you could easily access without being part of a major animation studio in 2009 was fairly poor in comparison to how smooth the video looks, especially when it comes to the physics and transitions

    • @DOCTOR.DEADHEAD
      @DOCTOR.DEADHEAD Год назад +11

    • @DOCTOR.DEADHEAD
      @DOCTOR.DEADHEAD Год назад +11

      ​@@BonnieBuggieMaybe a mix of both? The characters look to have a really solid foundation as the camera rotates and does other complex movements, plus in the shot from seeing Marisa's side to her back the stars in the background move as if they were in a 3D space. Meanwhile I can definitely see the transitions being hand-made.

    • @ali32bit42
      @ali32bit42 10 месяцев назад +3

      let me bring some insight.. they likely look like untextured clay models with motionless eyes and i would imagine impossible deformations on their surfaces to get the animation working which is normally bad but since we cant see their full form it doesn't matter. some 2d sprites and primitives make up other props after that.
      as for software.. judging by the date i think it was either 3DSMAX or an older version of maya. the rendering technique is extremely simple, make everything unshaded black and leave the background white. the rest is just cross fading.

  • @AltraHapi
    @AltraHapi 2 года назад +30

    its quite impressive how unique the idea seems to be of bad apple being black and white and how it ran with that uniqueness, either that or the demoscene is full of weebs or other songs are not as popular/im just not aware of other pieces of media often used (and im just talking about videos, because Im aware of doom)
    If anyone knows about other things often used I would like to know

      If anything, existence of weebs are exception in demoscene, considering the strong western cultural roots (and lack of substantial demosceners from the east)
      Bad Apple just happens to have (literally) monotone shadow art, and easy target for demosceners to crunch it in retro hardware

  • @IkaraPopsicle
    @IkaraPopsicle 2 года назад +30

    Comment 2 because?????: I'm so glad someone finally talked about this, no one ever did and I was waiting so long for the full version to be released, watching countless mmds and flipnotes and seizure inducing recreation WIPs (yes those are real, made in nintendo DS) but now half of the dream is real, now maybe more people might look into it and or get the real version or recreate it extremely good! (Maybe not in MMD, since the models are smooth and the motion is much more smooth like the parts where everyone has already seen)

  • @EndermanBoss

    didn't expect this! If you still plan on doing Touhou videos in the future would you mind doing a video explaining the plot of the mainline games? I've tried looking for other videos but people either poorly explain it or just sum it up in 2min.

    • @3RDplayer
      @3RDplayer 2 года назад +12

      Every kind of lore video is much needed tbh. Lore videos that aren't interrupted by stupid memes or shows footage on screen that does not match up to what is said would be a godsend. You know, unfiltered RAW canon. No fanon influence or memes allowed.

I myself was busy helping some friends to keep their small Artworks, so I got attention on it late in the yin/yang phase of the video. After the event ended, I was searching what that video was , and I fell for "bad apple" even I never heard about touhou before.

      I didn't mean the animations in my comment. What I liked about the original is how well they flowed from one scene to another, like how the apple turns into patchouli or sakuya's knife turns into flandre's wing. I don't like how in the new version they just lazily go into the window, it doesn't seem as creative as the original.
