I Am A Gummy Bear (widely known as The Gummy Bear Song) is Gummibär's debut song and was released along with the album I Am Your Gummy Bear, as well as having its own single and being remixed/dubbed in many different languages.
The 30-second CGI animated short was first released in 2006, with German as the first produced language. The long version was released later in 2007.
Short version
The short 30 second version features Gummibär in a white and blue gradial void with a star-like symbol on the ground dancing and performing the song. One of his notable dance moves involve him spinning on one finger and another where he shakes his rear end at the screen.
Long version
The long version (2m30s) features all the previous scenes from the short version plus a few more, including Gummibär bouncing his car in Hollywood, skateboarding across the town, playing the tuba in a park, dancing in the city, standing inside of the Statue of Liberty and performing at a concert to an audience of other gummy bears.
Development
The inspiration for the song struck Christian Schneider while he was enjoying a beer at a restaurant in Germany, where he encountered a muse, his bartender. In a whimsical moment, she referred to him as her Gummy Bear. Taken aback, Christian initially responded with disbelief, uttering, "No...what?" However, in the very next moment, he playfully retorted, "I'm Your Gummy Bear." This simple interaction sparked a brilliant idea in Christian's mind, and he promptly recorded a tune on his old Sony Walkman. Christian began working on the concept for the Gummibär character, along with the lyrics and sound recordings. His son Maci Schneider was also involved in the development as the producer and vocalist of the song.
Animation
The 30-second short version was animated by the company Wil Film ApS in Denmark with Softimage XSI as the software used, with Pete Dodd in charge of directing, designing and animating the short. An individual known online as "Pitcher" did the rigging, shading, rendering and compositing, and Kim Frederiksen did the modeling. The extended scenes for the long version were animated by 4K Animation GmbH, with Bernd Mittelhockamp as director.
