OGGA CHAKA BABY ORIGINS







The Ooga Chaka baby, also known as the “dancing baby” or “Baby Cha-cha” has taken over the media being the first internet viral video. This weirdly popular baby is a 3D rendered animation created with "Character Studio",used with 3D Studio Max. When this software was released to the public in 1996 people were able to create their own video clips of this dancing baby (sk_baby.max) and post them into internet web forums Since then various versions of this baby have been circling the WorldWideWeb (see babies page)and have even been shown in several mainstream media platforms including Fox’s Ally McBeal comic drama series, an episode of Unhappily Ever After, and many more. I think this baby here, will be important in some way to the internet's future and is the start of shaping internet culture for years to come
