Drunkfrank 1,125 August 14, 2014 Share August 14, 2014 This is still my favorite fandom...ever, this show and fandom has completely changed my life, but I have to point this out, isnt it sad that some of the epic animations are gone and have been gone for a looong time, The last great fan animation I saw was fall of the empire... which was good, but for every one of those there is a gazillion pinky being a murderer animations, I suppose I just miss the things like children of the night, I am octavia, tale of one shadow, ect Anyone else feel this way, Fan music is still really good, the same with fanfiction, Sadly I feel like there are less animators, Probably because they are scared of hasbro) thoughts? If this is in the wrong topic thread then please move it , also if you happen to disagree with me please express it through uhhhhhhh let me thing.

Odyssey 5,716 August 14, 2014 Share August 14, 2014 While I agree with the lack of animations right now, it takes a long time to create them. Not to mention the people who create them have a life outside of making animations. -3- 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention the people who create them have a life outside of making animations. -3- Of course they do, but still, there are many great animators out there, A LOT of bronies can probably create something great, a talke of one shadow had decent animation, wasnt great at all, but the quality of the video itself was amazing, Im just wondering why people with talents like the incredible derp guy make something worthwhile, I just want so see more animation, However this is also coming from the fact that we are in a hiatus and its KILLING me...

Luna 831 466 August 14, 2014 Share August 14, 2014 It takes time to make all of them. I agree with the hasbro thing though. 1 ask-princess-luna/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeric 46,851 August 14, 2014 Share August 14, 2014 There are two MASSIVE projects out there on the horizon. The Last Stand of Harmony and Journey of the Spark 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banul 3,831 August 14, 2014 Share August 14, 2014 Making a full fledged animation is a pretty big undertaking and requires a lot of people. I don't think that many people are willing to do that for a fan project that isn't going to get them any money. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moved to Elsewhere 11,331 August 14, 2014 Share August 14, 2014 Probably because making an animation takes a lot more time and effort. There are still projects in progress like Journey of the Spark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everleaf 541 August 14, 2014 Share August 14, 2014 Well it takes a long time and a lot of work to make a animation as it is along with the risk of having it taken down.... The deepest of the Everfree! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heliodor 156 August 14, 2014 Share August 14, 2014 I think that it's better for the fandom if there aren't a lot of big animation projects going on at once, although I do hope they continue to be made. They are one of my favorite parts of the fandom too. I'm SO stoked for Journey of the Spark. I can't wait. Having that big animation to look forward to, I can focus a lot of energy and interest in it, which I like. I'm just hoping it doesn't get in trouble with Hasbro. But yes, I think that's something animators would fear now that Hasbro has been so aggressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raritas 6,820 August 14, 2014 Share August 14, 2014 People like Jan Animations had issues with Hasbro and their ridiculous copyright issues. That might be why a lot of animators are currently reluctant to make any full scale animations. I agree though, nothing huge has happened in the fandom recently. I mean, by huge I meant something like Double Rainboom or Button's Adventures. I'm sure something will come along soon "Sometimes I wish I could imagine myself 10 years from now, out of college, living life without boundaries. But, at the end of the day, it's just a step closer to the future. The future tends to unfold as it should... well, at least I think it does." - Kitty0706 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary Comet 76 August 14, 2014 Share August 14, 2014 I think a lot of people can agree that it would be nice if animations could just be created in a snap, but that's not the truth. The truth is that they need a full team, equipment, and I'm not saying all of that is cheap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radiance64 7,053 August 15, 2014 Share August 15, 2014 Yeah, I love fan animations too, but with all that's happened this year with Hasbro holding that community back, there's just not going to be as many big ones unfortunately. It's just how it goes sometimes unfortunately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oblivion 20,266 August 15, 2014 Share August 15, 2014 (edited) And you have to realize that these things are not gone, they will always be around and keep being re uploaded or stored in an online database of some sort. Besides, there are still plenty left on youtube! See man, all those videos that you said had gone away are still very much alive! An I"m sure the way that the fandom is there shall be many more in the future. Edited August 15, 2014 by 0blivion 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotoriousSMALL 1,984 August 15, 2014 Share August 15, 2014 There's a large amount of unfinished animatics out there for MLP. But lately the artists have given updates that they are in fact still working on them, which is nice. (for instance Lullaby for a princess and Anthropology) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeric 46,851 August 15, 2014 Share August 15, 2014 Anthropology) That is still being worked on? Nice! Personally the one song I want to see animated that isn't is Mother Changeling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashen Pathfinder 16,161 August 16, 2014 Share August 16, 2014 Well, in cases like, we have to show patience. The animators are under no obligation to rush to finish their projects, so we should respect that. Though, I do agree, I'd like to see another epic like "Take of One Shadow" but I'm perfectly fine with waiting. Great things come to those who wait. 1 Pathfinder I Sojourner I Corsair | Zu'hra I Autumn | Scarlet Willow | Gypsy | Silverthorn | Crystal Whisper | Radiant Historia | And many other OCs~ Matching signatures with mah Bestie MOONLIGHT <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I say animation comes at the snap of a finger, I dont remember saying that, but animation isnt as pltentiful as it was in 2012-2013, Sorry if I offended you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Countess Noodle 607 September 12, 2014 Share September 12, 2014 (edited) I honestly fear for Journey of the Spark. Because Hasbro has not been forgiving lately with fan animations .
