    Ponibooru Film Night


    Copy Paste:

    Poster artist DaisyHead here. This week we will be watching a Disney sequel. Said sequel will be the Hunchback of Notre Dame 2. A horrible sequel to a story where the main character kills himself at the immense grief of of Esmiraldas death by starving himself next to her corpse. And then Disney makes a sequel to this. Where Esmirelda, Who was hung at the gallows in the original, is married to Pheobus, who is actually supposed to have married someone else who hated Esmiralda, especially after Pheobus had had sex with Esmiralda, whom Frollo wanted, have a son together, who shouldn't 
    exist because this movie shouldn't exist, that is friends with Quasimodo, who should be dead. Basically, they made a movie where Quasimodo could have a love interest because he didn't end up with Esmiralda. So there is a festival or something and this guy wants the bells of notre dame because they are shiny. And Quasimodo has to stop them. Thats it. Thats what they came up for a sequel. There shouldn't be a sequel to this franchise. It's stupid.

    Hosts for film night will be:
    DaisyHead 
    Harlequin Jester
    Psychopomf
    Jack-o-lantern 
    Roboshi
    Feral Socks
    Pony Cat


    LOCATIONS FOR THE MOVIE WILL BE HERE:  http://www.livestream.com/derpiboorumovienight?t=958481

    Successful Meetups

    XS-ICA Brony Meetup


    Copy Paste:

    The XS-ICA Brony Group held their first meet up last May 25, 2013 and even if only 11 members of the group showed up, it was still a lot of fun! We watched Fast and Furious 6, played some games at the arcade, and had a few games of Laser Tag! Even a little girl we met while playing Laser Tag recognized Applejack from a shirt one of our members was wearing!

    We didn't get a chance to look for MLP merchandise but it really didn't matter because everyone was having a good time!

    Fan Project Looking for VA





    Copy Paste:

    Coming this Fall, from Pouncing Pegasi Productions, a fan episode that serves as a sort of "prequel" to the life of Scootaloo. 

    The fan episode is estimated to be around around 15 to 20 minutes in length (as timed through our storyboards and screenplay). We have amazingly talented people working on this animation. We also have an experienced and talented cast made up of Meredith Sims, Emily Koch, and Will Lightfoot. 

    We're currently looking for a voice actress for Sweetie Bell... the role only requires a few lines of dialogue. A good quality microphone is preferred. If you'd be interested in such a role, please contact me at directorianballinger@gmail.com

    As of now, we have finished storyboarding, most of our character rigs, and are in the process of voice recording. We are also prepping to begin animating. We plan to release the fan episode on YouTube sometime this November. 

    Crew:
    Writer/Director ~ Ian Ballinger
    Lead Animator ~ Derek Root
    Animator ~ Artem Barablin
    Animator ~ David "Al" Morales
    Animator ~ Paul Nivix
    Animator ~ Travis Russell
    Composer ~ Chris Heron (aka TheDashDub)
    Storyboard Artist ~ David "Al" Morales
