Definitely over 10...not sure exactly how many times though. Arrrrgggh! Yulia....please learn to upload full length videos...the tease is too great

Here's another effort...Yulia doing Mulan

Nice work. I've actually been toying with this concept myself for the past couple months, including a few feeble attempts that have never left my hard drive -- sort of a "re-imagine your favorite skater's program with completely different music." Excellent editing to put it all together!

Where'd you manage to get the stock sounds of the crowd applauding and the effects of blades on take-off/landing from the ice?

^thanks! The little effects come with iMovie...because we just upgraded from a 2004 PC (yikes). They didn't have many choices though so its a bit robotic. Apparently the sound is from Hockey Skates...

Actually the robotic/stock sound is what makes the video so humorous to me -- not sure if that's what you were going for, but I was cracking up on a couple of the videos, especially the Yuzuru 'One Winged Angel'.

These stinking journalists. Again. One of the Russian media published some parts of Yulia's Q&A (without asking for any permission, of course!), making it look like some interview, and even altered some phrases... I doubt that Yulia will feel like answering questions again in the nearest future :scowl: And the admins of that group say, that the group will be made closed, available only by special registration...

Oh, that's stupid, I need now a registration in order to get an access, right otherwise it would be impossible to visit her fan's page and read her answers?

Originally, it just bugged me that people were clapping in the background but there was no sound lol

Russian seems so difficult!
I wonder when Yulia will start to answer questions in English like what Kovtun does these days. I know it's too much for fans to ask for that.
Well I hope to see she answered questions in interview in English during competitions some day since more and more Russian girls do that recently? But it's totally fine otherwise since skating is most important for her now.

I started learning Russia at home a year ago just because of figure skating

Yes, our language is very difficult
I think that Julia will learns English sooner that her fans Russian
It will happen more sooner if she will training in Orser team or with another foreign coach. There are such rumors. But Julia denies it. We will know exactly after Team championat. Ilinykh began to speak English after a year of stay in the U.S.

This sounds interesting to me. I want more interactions between Yuzuru and Yulia
anyways, its impossible since she denied it already, haha
For me, its better if Yulia answered in russian during interviews so that she can express herself more.

If it's just something like summer camp that still sounds amazing IMO. :yes:

I would agree that proper Russian is difficult because of cases and endings. But to understand it and to speak "awkward Russian" in fact would be not that hard. It has only 3 tenses: present, past, and future (neither perfect nor continuous). You do not have to care about the word order like in Deutsch. You basically read what is written similar to Deutsch but very unlike English where the word spelling often does not follow common rules.

It also depends on where do you live. Russian as a Slavic language is quite similar with to other Slavic languages. I am from the Czech Republic so it is not so hard for me. For those, who has for example English as their first language it can be much more difficult.

I totally agree.
Many people are put off by German as well, the grammar, also the cases, though there are only four (compared to Russian's 6 ?) and the word order. While these things are indeed not easy (even we sometimes can't explain why you need to structure a sentence this or that way, you just have to ) they are needed for proper speaking but not for basic understanding.
I would understand any foreigner who uses the wrong cases or word order in a sentence nontheless and he could understand me rather well.

I think it's all doable and I'm contemplating getting into Russian too, nice hearing others are as well!

I'm not that much into anime stuff, but I find this one interesting.

I think those were forum rumors, including ours, after the RN. It doesn't make sense to wait and change the coach in May, when she is training since January for the next season.

Now, speaking about next season I would love to see her skate to Elgar Cello Concerto played by du Pré. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOzatzJEnSo

There was one more tabloid which published parts of Yulia's Q&A two days ago . That's why the group was closed... The admins of the group said that Yulia was really annoyed by it, and that they couldn't say if she would continue answering the questions... One of the fans came up with an idea to make a separate closed group, devoted completely to questions and answers. Today the admin has written that that's what they are going to do, and that Yulia liked this variant, too. And the official group is made open again...

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Can someone post my latest fan video over at her VK fanpage for me? I haven't logged in for some time but maybe some folks over there would enjoy it. I spent more time on that video than any other I've ever created. Thanks in advance.
