Hey yall. My name's Twital (she/he/fem/boy/uwu) . You might know my from youtube. I'm here to pick up where OP left off no cap.
The process will go in this order: Writing, voice acting, storyboarding, then animation.
Itโll be animated in the original style using the leaked character puppets
The following idea was picked
Idea 8: Trixieโs origin story.
Right now we'll do a short prototype adapting a page out of Neigh Anything.
If we complete that, we'll move on to the Trixie story.
So what we need are rigs and animation, backgrounds, and voices.
I'll start creating the rigs for young Shining Armor and Cadence.
In the meantime, does anyone want to share their best Shining Armor impression? Accepting AI-enhanced voice acting.I'm an animator, so I should be able to handle the animation side. If you want to be a part of the animation squad dm on the YouTubeโข with you name, pronouns, and face that way we'll put off the trolls.
The last thread was problematic yall. Let's not get political this time.
I believe that every one of us can come together to make something truly special. Something that will make history, be celebrated, and enjoyed by all who love these silly cartoon horses.
kek what a newfag. Many have tried, all failed, youโre not any different.
>>42171335Not OP but I believe the crab will escape the bucket one day. Why not now?
>>42171341Our very own episode would be the most difficult board project ever, and it would require months if not a year of talented anons working together full time.
See how the problems start stacking up? Itโs time consuming, hence drama will eventually start piling up as people get bored in the downtime, let alone the occasional shit stirrer that wants to start shit. Itโll take a team of dozens of Anons who know a hundred percent how to animate using the vectors under a very competent leadership that is respected full time to pump out a single episode.
Itโs just out of reach, if you want something to create try the /mlp/ AI dub, or just write a green or draw something, itโs got as much soul and itโs attainable.
Donโt bust yourself with grand ideas, newfag, creating awesome pony stuff is way easier than you imagine.
>>42171355Doesn't the prospect of doing something that sounds nigh-impossible excite you? Everything you just said makes me want to do it more
>>42171492It would excite me if I was autistic, yeah
When OP prime made /G4R/ he opened Pandora's box. This general will never die. It will remain as a monument of the first OP's hubris.
Sorry that I wasn't able to provide much help last thread. I'm very busy at the moment and my computer was confiscated because I'm being investigated by the police - that's why I wasn't able to provide any animation of mine in the last thread - so don't expect anything from me for the next two weeks.
>>42171518im the police and im throwing former OP into jail for not being a animator
>>42171275 (OP)ZOMG Twital your my favrit (\TcT/)
>an animation thread is being led by a kid who climbed out of the womb when videos like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R--jGkng8To were still new
man
>>42171275 (OP)So.... which page from Neigh Anything?
>>42171561Twital is a VERY impressive animator and he even lead projects like the G5 revival project and Marenheit before. He is very credible and now that I know that he is involved in it, I am sure that we will get this done
>>42171567Damn my brain isn't braining today fr. You a real one for mentioning that no cap on god. I've already started. I'll post something soon. High school is giving.
>>42171275 (OP)>>42171582Trollfags again... I don't think this is Twital.
Ok OP, if you're Twital - send a photo of your scene setup in software you use for animation with "Twital :3" written on a paper in the frame.
>>42171766Just give it a try anon. I'm sure you'll love it.
Is this the shitposting general?
>>42171823yes. anons impersonating Twital, like was in the previous thread.
the person below me is the real twital like i am
hi guys i love doing maid rp with twital
>>42171275 (OP)hi Twital, I can voice act as make Trixie, if you want to use the "Trixie was originally a stallion" bit
>>42171866OwO babe not in public....unless.....
>>42171835Don't engage with trolls yall
>>42171874Good good. I was thinking of making the episode in the eqg style actually, except they will all have human skintones. Pick related is the way I imagine the mane 6 in my heart. We can also do anthro if you like.
>>42171711My brother in christ read my name. That's all the proof you need. How can somepony else share my name on this app? Maybe if you stopped being such a neckbeard you'd get some bitches on yo dick.
>>42171568Who's gonna tell him?
>>42172004you do it, lazy bastard
This is a really nice project, and I can lend it my new SOTA text-to-voice AI.
Five times more powerful than 15.ai.
>>42172011no way bros 75 pls take all my training data
>>42172011Boys? It's happening!
Ok faggots, the episode is named "THE" unless another name gets more support, so let's move on to step 2: Pick a release date. Christmas Eve, Christmas, New Year's, October 10th, tomorrow.
>>42172036work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion, so let's pick the first of june
>>42172036September 11th.
>>42171531Give him a chance anon
Human men were built for zebra pussy
>>42171355>it would require months if not a year of talented anons working together full time.One anon already did it (vidrel), I'm not sure how long it took him but he did two episodes. It's far from perfect and uses simple animation (mainly vectors and character movement to symbolise talking) but it has some funny and cute moments and also features tail docks. kek. I'd be happy if anons made more in that format, to properly animate each episode would be a mammoth task and just isn't feasible imo.

>>42171275 (OP)Well, if I were going to make another thread, this is the image I would've used lol.
As an animator, I naturally post my work online. Sharing anything I've done would ruin the anonymity! I had already posted rigs for the characters in the previous thread, but I don't think anyone noticed.

>>42172868My brother in christ... Rigging โ Animation. You still haven't proven that you're an animator.
>Sharing anything I've done would ruin the anonymity!OK, if you're saying that then I assume your animations are so unique and have a very distinctive style and you're so fucking popular that people will recognize your animations if you share one of them here, yeah-yeah.
At this point you have 3 options:
1. Show one of your show-quality animations that you've made, just one animated pony in the frame, with no background, so people can't identify the origin of the animation
2. Animate 5-10 seconds of this Teen Cadence rig just for this thread to prove that you're an animator and can animate these rigs. 3 seconds of animation is also ok.
3. If nothing from above, then go fuck yourself and never return to this fucking thread.

I got some screenwriting experience beyond mlp fanfics. i'm not a professional but since you're asking 4chan about this guess you'll have to take what you can get. if this project actually goes anywhere im here for it.
>>42182376Could you help me brainstorm a good story angle for a project I'm working on?
>weeks left until a delivery: 2
ATTENTION! NEW DEVELOPMENTS
Original OP (/gr4/ anon) here. The project's going smoothly so far, but we still need a VA for Shining . We'll be using ai for Cadance and Twilight. I messaged Twital on discord, and he volunteered to help with the sound effects and editing. If you feel you have something to add please reply to the anchor post (the one below this). At the rate we're going we should be done by the end of the month. In the meantime here's a sneak peek snapshot of the animation for anyone curious. Once again we need a VA for shining (this is a board project after all). If (you) feel up for it you can post a clip on vocaroo, or catbox. Lets do this /mlp/!
>>42183622a]Anchor post. What can (you) add?
>>42183622>reverse image search>not resultserrrrr guys? Sid we just win?
>>42183622No way! Looking good!
>>42183622wtfwtfwtf?! It's real. He really did it.
>>42183622Do you have an animatic?
>>42183649No it's a fairly simple animation, so there wasn't really a need for one. 'The main reason the animation's taking so long is because I work a 9-5 so making time on the side is a bit challenging.
>>42183622so twital is animating it? rigs look like twital-made, not official leaked rigs
so then probably
>>42174176 is being left out
also, where are you communicating? in discord?
>>42183716I'm the lead animator, although Twital did help with the rigs and sound design. As for communication we're using discord to avoid trolls.
>>42183622I wish this man would learn some consistency in stroke thickness but other than that it's aight.
>>42183716>where are you communicatingSame place the Mare Fair opening ceremony animators collab. This board is nearly unusable for projects of this scope. Ironically, refusing to use discord (which would've quickly filtered out trolls) is the reason the 2020 animation thread died, interesting because everyone itt said discord would kill the project. Now we have a project that's delivering results, and lo and behold, the work is being done on discord.
>>42184014This is just a prototype. The Trixie animation will be far more polished. We can also utilize the leaked rigs more effectively. Speaking of which if any anons can animate please reply to the anchor post. A 22min animation will definitely need a larger work force.
>>42184039>mare fair mentioned>the work is being done on discordNow I know for a fact nothing is going to happen. The only thing that will come out of this is retarded drama
>>42184130More
>>42183622 has come out of work being done on discord than it has in the entire 520 post shitfest that was the first g4r thread. This board is no different from discord in that anons are addicted to drama.

>few have ever come out
There are two types of fan projects. The ones motivated by fame, attention, even money. And the other projects, the projects made by someone who really really just wanted to bring their ideas to life, regardless of the reward, if any, being received. The rare passion project.
Everyone's seen the thread about an anon with some grand vision, the "idea guy", that talks about how they'll do something great for the board. And what happens to these threads? They ALWAYS die off, without fail, and rightfully so. The Great Anonymous fails once again to produce anything of value, a person filtered by their own lack of passion, exposed for what they always were by the time the thread 404s: an attention whore looking for (You)s.
Real artists don't care about views. They "just create", regardless of how popular they get. Real artists don't need validation from anonymous posters. Real artists have quite a few creative projects that could easily get a dozen replies on this dead board, projects that only they and maybe a few of their close friends know about. They don't care about shilling their work to the nth degree, because they're far too busy creating.
Many project threads you see on this board, are devoid of passion. Perhaps there are a few outliers, but most of them lack passion. Why is that? If it was a passion project, you wouldn't need to make a whole thread about it. Because the more people talk about what they're going to do, the less likely it is that they're going to do it. Why brag about something you haven't done when you could be doing it instead? The Mare Fair opening animations? Artists didn't make a thread to farm (You)s, they just did it, and showed them at the con. That is passion. Telling everyone you're going to make the greatest thing ever and that you should be showered with replies is the opposite of passion.
That dream project you want to create? Go do it instead of telling everyone that you're going to. Don't come here.
>>42185530There's only one type of fan project: the type that never comes out. Nothing. Ever. Happens. Not now, not 15 years ago, not 15 years in the future.
The only thing that comes out of these projects is disappointment and drama. I'm tired of being disappointed, might as well have fun with the drama.
>>42185545That's the spirit, anon! Now let's you and me generate 348 more posts worth of drama!
Well I'm glad to see something getting made, even if it's taking place on the community Anti-Christ platform.
I think the big problem with doing it on here, and the problem we ran into last time, is that there's no workflow system. On /ppp/ funny nobody mentioned them as a project that actually succeeded, when they were collecting all the voicelines, they had a system for claiming an episode and then checking it off as completed. So anybody could pinch in, even just a little, and everybody would know what needs to be done.
Although I'm not really sure what they're working on, considering there's no script?
Well chaps it looks like it's time to come clean. I was never /g4r/ anon nor have I ever contacted Twital. There was no discord, and there was no animation. I made
>>42183622 to gauge how anons here would react to a form of delivery (even a minuscule one like this). Although I can't say that I'm disappointed; I can't exactly say that I'm pleased with the outcome. Instead of contributing by replying to the anchor you only sought after drama. Those who were vehemently against discord quickly backpedaled their thought process once something of substance was produced. So much for board integrity. Many scrutinized my post, but had nothing to back their points. Many praised my post but failed to critique it with a fine tooth comb. Still though I don't believe that all hope is lost. I can say without a doubt that
>>42184359 is not me. From a glance at his trip code it appears that he's the real one. The crab will most definitely escape the bucket with enough poking and prodding.
I'm certain many of you will be in denial, so I'll leave you with this:
>How did I do it? + proofI couldn't find a good image of Twilight sitting, so I just used https://ponerpics.org/images/259485 and color graded it to fit the shot. Obviously I had to make some tweaks. Regarding Shining Armour and Cadance: I used a slightly edited version of https://ponerpics.org/images/1432215 . I'm not very good at editing, so if you zoom in then it should be clear that some lines were hand drawn. I constructed the entire background in about half an hour. I'm quite pleased with results to be honest. I used the file name sc5lowres to imply that other pieces of the animation had already been created. I also saved it as a .jpg to make errors less noticeable. The image attached is a screenshot of the .kra file.
To reiterate: this was all a sham, I only created the background, you've been trolled, hope you enjoyed mother's day.

>>42185653>Instead of contributing by replying to the anchorThere was nothing to contribute, really, it seemed to be a solo project. I asked about an animatic, that's what I could make, and apparently it never needed one.

>>42182714maybe i can. there's many ways to brainstorm story ideas (or angles) though you wont start out with anything "good" at first. like if you plan to share anything about this "project" theres the oppertunity for a bunch of anons to take their own spins or feedback for it.

Honestly making a fan episode based off of a comic is kind of a one-man job anyway. What could a second person even do?
>>421912591st person writes the script, draws storyboard and environment for the animation
2nd person creates rigs and animates the whole thing
But really if the person can both animate and draw, then they can do it all by themselves
>>42190516Bump see you in the pts
>>42193171Bump I wonder how long we can keep this up
So, assuming somebody is dumb enough to waste their time writing a script, how faithful to the comic should it be? Should it be fairly close, or should it take lots of liberties?
And since it's pony high school, should that human element be reigned in and made more fantastical?
>>42193601The script should be as close to the original as possible
>>42193607B-but.. it was never about the... the Shining Armor comic... it... like... was about Trixie's backstory... re-remember?
>>42193607but anon, the original comic isn't very good
>>42193609what's wrong with asking a few questions?
>>42193619It can be about trixie as soon as somebody makes a sexy rig for her younger form
>>42193624If you ask us for a story, we're going to recommend https://www.fimfiction.net/story/500819/. Sorry, it's a meme at this point.
I might make a bait thread later. What should I make it about?
>>42195545Hmmm... I haven't seen a "what's the appeal" thread for a while. That might be fun, larp as an offboarder and use a frog as the OP image if you feel like taking a risk

>>42206635, and follow the amtlib.dll crack instruction here https://solero.me/t/installing-adobe-flash-professional-cs6-on-windows-10-or-mac/144. No viruses, this is the safest way to install Flash CS6. You'd need to have an Adobe account though
Flash CS6 can randomly stop opening with some error message about damaged install, but in this case just reinstall. Don't delete the installer and amtlib.dll crack from your computed for this case
This probably the only thread worth bumping at this point.
>>42212217>>42212451Thanks I got it up and running. You chaps have been a great help. If I have time maybe I'll post something in the antithology.
Start BEGGING for a fanfic/script that matches Renzetti & Faust's style and above.
Okay, maybe let's start with something even simpler while G4R Anon is cooking his Neigh Anything thing (if he even is an animator like he claims).

As soon as I get the storyboard, I'll try animating the first 5-10 seconds to see if I'm actually capable of animating the simplest shit. Iโve completed a basic puppet animation tutorial for beginners on YouTube.

I will say, I tried out some of the new bitmap warping stuff and the delay when making a new keyframe is really irritating. I wonder if the usual Spine2D or Adobe puppet tool has those issues with performance?

I also had to download and optimize the storyboard video (so it doesn't keep showing identical frames), to avoid delay/lag while playing it in the background. Constantly changing 1080p bitmaps every frame really tanks performance.

Alright faggots you're animating Tempest Shadow's comic if you don't come up with something better.
https://www.canterlotcomics.com/comic/en/a_storm_s_lullaby-1360
>do we animate the spin-off porn comic made by the same married female author? put under a Patreon wall?
Of course my horse.
>What are the pros & cons of this comic book from a narrative perspective?
Realistically written child. / Scootaloo tie-in
Decent dialogue, decent pacing(up until a point), written by an actual writer with basic experience and narrative skills.
Tempest Shadow
Vanilla Lone Wolf & Cub story/The Mandalorian , except "the baby" can talk.
Cons;
Very boring slice of life with barely 3 events and 1 world design idea in it.
The purple-haired character isn't very well developed and her motivation is completely contradictory to her actions.
Not very action oriented. Written more like a Redwall drama war story or a well written soap opera than a badass Samurai Jack show.
The climax & epilogue take 100/250 pages to finish, completely ruining what started as a decent pacing.
