Hey, I don't visit 4chan too often but I've been working on this here animation for the past while and I'd like opinions regarding it if anybody has any.
It's basically a tribute piece to a bunch of old fandom stuff, each song being based on their respective music videos/typographies etc.
Feedback is appreciated.
>>27931790
I missed you, where the fuck you been?
>>27931790
Neat!
>>27931790
I watched it when you published it, and I loved it. I'm really looking forward to the finished version.
>>27931790
Hey, thats bretty good.
Hopefully you guys use a cutoff date of like 2013, so I don't have to taint my perfect golden era fandom image with the video.
Thanks thanks and thanks
>>27931843
Been mostly busy with University, still got another semester to go before I finish my course but after that hoping to stick around and consistently make more similar projects
>>27931790
Yea yea yea, it's good.
BUT it is just WIP! Do first, and then upload it everywhere.
>>27931933
Well that's good to hear.
Also that part where Celestia started going deep sent my sides to orbit and fuck anyone who says otherwise.
>>27931790
>>27931790
hey viva look! I'm you
>>27931790
do you think little nigs james is an edgy asshole? I sure do
>>27931790
For the Ken Ashcorp part, I would suggest to ditch 'his' OC. The guy who made the video created it, and while Ken mostly shrug it off, he didn't see how it fit in any way. It would be funnier to recolor that thing to look like Kenny, Ken's fursona/waifu.
Thats an awesome idea, keep working on it
Puts me to shame that i dont know every song
Make sure to add a list with all the covered songs
>>27932664
All songs are listed in the original video, if you want them.
https://youtu.be/83lpPH-ozmA
>>27931790
This is really fucking good! Judging by this amazing WIP, the finished project might just be your best mlp show animation since "Princess Celestia Being Deep."
You really got better with animating in these rigs of yours and I like the art style. This is great fun to watch! Great job!
I think it is your best animation yet, first was Canadian pirates song,
by the way how did your mum react to you being a brony
>>27931790
Really nice, I love the Love Me Cheerliee part where Tombstone has the black eye at the end, was really funny. Also the Princess Celestia Being Deep reference was nice. I think the 20% Cooler animation should be different though, I just don't think it works well with the song.
>>27933014
Yeah maybe if it was just rainbow dash trying to be cool and failing it could be funnier,
also could you plz start doing some pony flash tutorials i want to start animating
This thread is more deserving of replys than the KP one
>>27931790
Well, I wasn't going to watch this until it's finished, but since you came here and asked, I watched it.
Looks really great, I don't really know what to say since I can't spot anything that really sticks out as wrong or so. In the take where Celestia walks/hops towards the camera (second scene of the Lullaby part), the legs look a bit weird, I prefer the look of the walking in the Great To Be Different part. In general, the hindlegs of ponies in front-facing shots look a bit weird, but it's not like the show itself doesn't also have that problem.
For the 20% Cooler part, I agree with >>27932530, maybe give him a panda ear cap or something like that to still keep the OC from the videoHe should appear as a scarf-wearing ghost for a few frames anyways 2bh.
>>27933174
So were the BrutalWeather and Agrol threads, but somehow people here would rather endlessly shitpost about KP than discuss quality animations. Although obviously there's more to talk about when something is bad and attracts drama than when it's just a silly animation with not much of a point to it.
>>27931790
I like it.
>>27933321
You sir are my favourite animator in the community
>>27933395
You sir probably misclicked, I think.
>>27931790
It was good and I liked it.
>>27931790
Love the idea. Not so sure about the choice of songs and I fear this is too much of an artist OCs fanwank. Was the Trixie song even that popular? I'm aware that having several Tombstone's songs/remixes is unevitable but Magic?
What even was the Vinyl/Octy song? Didn't ring a bell.
>>27931790
Eh, I like your absurdist shorts way better. This fandom isn't exactly a perfect thing to make tributes to.
>>27931790
It makes me kinda sad that this kind of quality in the fandom is almost extinct. Excellent work Reverie, loved it and made me take a nostalgia trip all the way back to 2010.
>>27933872
He's just animating >>27932733. He didn't choose the songs.
>>27934025
Hey now, we still have BrutalWeather, Agrol, and Duo Cartoonist at the very least who do decent animation. I think the animation community is actually better in quality than in the beginning of the fandom.
>>27931790
>That Lullaby for a princess scene
Okay, I laughed
I'm pleased
>>27934250
Moonbow is coming out later this year as well.
>>27931790
This guy visits /mlp/?
>>27934663
I know right its kind of hard to ignore the whole "I want pony sex" of 4chan
>>27931790
>Parody of Lullaby for a princess
Can you do 'Children of the night', too?
>>27934250
Right, I'm dumb. Long day at work, I guess.
Now I am actually disappointed that I've seen probably the better half of the songs featured.
>>27931790
So Viva finally decided to make a post on the big bad 4chan eh?
Enjoy your stay. You can check out anytime you like but you can never leave.
>>27936116
welcome to hotel /mlp/

He was here once before, if you check the archive.
>>27931790
>instant god tier thread
>>27936681
He's still no frequent flier friendo.
>>27931790
The only feedback I have, is that if you'd like to have it dedicated to the fandom. Try having snippets of key parts of the fandom.
Wether in the foreground or background is up to you.kind of like have you did it with Flufflepuff in the trixe act
>>27936806
This, except try and include parts of the fandom we actually want to remember
>>27931790
100/10
Put anon on it.^:)
>>27937050
this, somewhere anywhere. need the green man
>>27932530
For the sake of having it be like the original PMV, still want to keep the red horse. Might sneak in a reference to the panda chick though if I can find something that works.
>>27932836
She doesn't really care, I guess I got kinda lucky on that front
>>27933014
>>27933046
One way or another I still want it to reference the original PMV, and I've already changed it enough IMO. Changing it more and deviating from the original would take away from the whole "tribute" aspect of it.
>>27933321
Noted. Thanks, good criticism is hard to come by, too often it's often a black or white "It's good" or "It's bad" statement.
>>27933973
Eh, someone's gotta do it, and more absurdist shorts are coming once this is done and completed.
>>27934663
hardly
>>27936806
That's definitely something I want to try and do. The Fluffle Puff bit almost wasn't in there, but I couldn't think of any other place in the entire 9 minute song where she'd fit. At least in the original Magic PMV she does the same thing, so that bit of that song was a good place to put her as it referenced a thing in the original.
Thanks to everybody else who liked the animation btw
>>27931790
Good to see you here and good work. Your animation is greatthe only weakness is the source material
I agree with other anons that the 20% cooler should include Kens OC or be changed up a little, even though it's still good as is. If you want tips to make the animation really amazing I'd throw in a bunch of little references into the clips. Like have other FiW references in there songs or better yet references to Gregs stuff. That would make it more dense, but isn't necessary.
>>27931790
>>27937228
love your videos friendo. keep it up. any chance you'll be making any more with the original puppets instead of your alternate style? i like both but i miss the old ones
Oh hey it's reverie

Viva, come in >>27906125bump
Let me guess, the vid is an inspiration from one of Weird Al's songs. Forgot what it's called since I seen it only once last year, but it reminds me of it. Not bad either way.

I feel like my style doesn't suit show-style horses, if you want to do show-style horses you need to animate show-style, and I sure as heck don't animate show-style.
>>27931790
THAT'S FUCKING STOLEN FROM ANIMATED JAMES HOLY SHIT
>>27931790
Literally better than all the original animations. Except for Lullaby for a Princess. Well done.
YOU LITERALLY JUST STOLE THIS AND ANIMATED IT
EVEN THE THUMBNAIL IS STOLEN
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83lpPH-ozmA
>>27939156
>>27939203
No he didn't steal it you dumbass.
>>27939156
>>27939203
uh bro
>>27939203
Read the description of the video. Nobody "stole" anything,
>>27939126
No dude, your show accurate vids were awesome. Saw you at BronyCon 2016 at the Ashleigh Ball line. Ultimately it's up to every creator to do whatever they want but I'm sure plenty of people liked both styles you did, myself and the other anon included.
>>27939203
>just stole
>then animated
>implying
w e w l a d
>>27931790
The animation of Celestia's legs feel a little off but that makes it funnier. Other than that if you could add in a cameo for anon that would be a great wink towards the fandom.
>>27931790
Top quality fampai
>>27931790
Hey Viva. The next scene is Anthropology, so probably you already animated it ages ago but, is there any chance to get a parody/tribute to that old unfinished PMV with the dancing Lyra? I'd love to see pic related animated in your style.
>>27939156
>>27939203
And dumbest post of the day goes to
>>27931790
Hey Viva. if you're still here, I just wanted to ask if you still do when a toy glitch happens.
because I was planning on uploading this but I feel someone would say I'm stealing your style.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4mj5zLSYF4
>>27937228
Thanks viva for replying, i was wondering about how your mum felt because of all the merchandise ýou have
>>27939392
You should make celestia walk like she did in being deep
>>27939812
Final version probs won't have that specific dance, but will very much reference the original storyboard thing
>>27940674
idc w/e, it's not like I trademarked the "lol this toy is stupid" style of videos
>>27941016
Btw stop being so mad artists and talking behind their backs you homofag.
>>27941016
>Final version probs won't have [the plot shake]
:^(
>>27931790
Ok, let's see what we have here.
You just've taken some songs with pmvs, recorded some polka-like-track from all of them, then you redraw some fragments from those pmvs with you simple style frame-to-frame.
And what is the point? You've created literally nothing new.
3\10 for effort.
>>27931790
What can I say, better than expected. Some fine-tuning rhythm wise and it'll be playlist worthy in my regard.
>>27943034
You might have missed the part in the beginning where it says "homage", so I screencapped it for your convenience.
>>27943034
he's done none of this. he is doing something completely different than any of what you just said, you retard
>>27941941
I don't understand your query
still relevant
>>27931790
this is better than i expected, cool
>>27931790
I would like to talk shit about the stupid OCs and whatnot but this is just really good.
For the 'crystal ball' scene, I think that it would be better if you zoomed out and showed that the ponies were inside the ball.
I like the celestia walking.
>>27931790
I remember when that faggot said he was going to do another polka like that.
fart fag still needs to do it because I enjoyed it.
Also Viva browses /mlp/? I never noticed. Also with your "Hi Anon" pillows Vinyl Scratch has no nose. Just thought I'd point that out.
>>27939812
I like this dance (^:333

This? Found it on Derpibooru. May have been fixed or an updated version.
>>27931790
Wh-whoa, didn't expect to see you here.
The only irk I'd have with your animation would be lack of Cheese Sandwich's cameo appearances. But maybe you are already planning to do that. If so, then just ignore this stupid anon.
Besides that, your animation was golden, keep it up
>>27952375
