I think that's most content creators to be honest. I know I can speak for myself and say that's absolutely the case. You just have to keep trucking along and keep honing your skills/working towards finishing your project come hell or high water. Also organization helps a lot, especially for larger projects.

As a guy who finished various 6 months PMV projects, I was terrible at organizing anything, I took long breaks and sometimes added in one clip or finished few seconds, I was afraid that if I tried to force myself when my mind was currently dry out of ideas the video would suck.

Currently also working on a bigger project with the same tempo.

Yeah, it's not the first time something like that happened to me, but it feels like this time I really took more than I can chew. Organisation is really the problem. If I could manage my time properly and actually set up like a primitive Gantt chart with deadlines and shit, it would probably be much easier. Too bad my willpower ends at working out regularly because I can't even get out of bed at a set time.

It's supposed to be a pony video intertwined with some extra animation and effects designed by me. The progress is currently at the point where I have the clips required and while making prototypes of the designs I'm slowly realizing I have no idea what the fuck I'm doing.

A while back, Animated James and Vannamelon made a song called "The Real Pink Pony" a parody of an Eminem song.

I took the song, added some EQ and effects, then isolated the vocals and laid it over Eminem's Instrumental version

Well done to Vannamelon though on her performance, some parts of the song you can tell where she's getting tired and literally straining to keep in her Pinkie voice

Yeah the parody was surprisingly good. I still think it has a great start but the last verse is weak, like they ran out of ideas.
The instrumental is a bit off, though. I dunno if it's just low quality, but it feels a tad muffled in comparison to the original, like there's imbalance between the lower and higher frequencies. Would be better if I could actually express what I'm hearing in English but I ain't no sound engineer.

Currently messing with the world generation code, thinking of converting it to Python so it's easier to work on. Then I want to adjust the ore spawning patterns and add more tiers of metals (right now there's only copper).

Have you guys ever initially planned out a project in your head perfectly only to have it come out shitty because of lack of time?

https://youtu.be/xEwlp8d9wcg

The problem with me is I have very little patience these days with editing. It's beyond tedious at some points and it wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't working 2 jobs and in school all year round.

I haven't lost my motivation yet, but man is my time management a gigantic problem for me. It makes me think that the main reason content is being produced less these days is because people grew up and have serious lives now rather than just losing interest in the fandom/show.

pic unrelated I guess

I'm an art student who never fucking has the drive to complete anything decent. I have so many crazy ideas, and sources of inspiration, and a good imagination, and even practice and access to damn good software, but I don't have the will, discipline, to commit to even a little project.
And the worst part is I know my time is quickly running out, as mlp will soon be over, and of course, fandom activity will die as well. Making content for an audience that had to have moved on will be pointless.

There is ONE original music video project that I feel I can accomplish with all my availiable resources if I get started soon. I just need to get off my ass and do it. I bought a drawing tablet, camera, mic, & crazy software for god sakes.

Wish a nigga luck in bringing more cool content to the fandom. I sure want to do it, but being at the shitty, entitled young adult age where I want to do whatever I feel like doing instead of what I should be doing, doesn't help squat.

I have had some weird bursts of inspiration before. For example a few years ago a theatre department Inwas involved with did the musical rendition of Footloose and I recently wondered how much time and effort it would take somebody to remake the first two scenes (approx 7 minutes) of the musical in a more cinematic format with the vocals and instruments being re-recorded from scratch. Not to mention the animation process itself would probably need like 2 animatic drafts and people that knew what dance moves wouldn't look cringeworthy for ponies for the Chicago sequence and how to work around the limitations in camera shots of the one room congregation. Plus, it's most likely need VA's for at least 8 people and a good group of teenaged/early adult singers, church chior and backups to act as the people in the pews.


Sorry for the spaghetti spill I just really like the idea. Though if by a slim chance it did happen I'd just go ahead and cast myself as Ren.

That's hardmode though, trying to write everything from scratch yourself. It's much easier if you use an existing engine such as LÖVE or Game Maker.

Virtual reality codefag, reporting.

Pony viewer version 0.5, which should have included scenes from Argodaemon, is more or less canceled. It's doable but a lot of work for a sub-par result since it will lack facial animations.
Also, money is getting tight so I'm back on non-pony, commercial projects (shitty mobile games mostly).
The only good news is that I plan to add a few boss fights with OCs, as bonus levels. Probably Pillow case, Anonfilly, Aryanne (without her cm) and maybe Snowdrop or Nyx. Can't risk having Hasbro on my ass so it limit a lot what I can do.

don't get me wrong, love2d is a fucking godlike framework, but it's not an engine unless you're going for box2d integration or planning on using only what's already built in. The built in systems are the best of any engine/framework I've used, and I highly recommend anyone going for game dev to use love, but expect to write a lot of engine code yourself (game states, collision detections, tilemaps, levels, ai, etc etc) depending on the complexity of your project. That's the beauty of lua though, it's insanely easy to write your own modules and code in your own style, unlike java. I've been using love2d/lua as my main code system for three years now, and for Everfree Chronicles my dialogue engine is roughly 2,200 lines long spread across four "classes". Menu system is another 1,500 or so.

Nope; I do all my sequencing in FL Studio (which I've been using for well over 10 years), though I do use a lot of authentic chip sounds through either actual samples or hardware emulation). Since I do all my composing digitally via virtual instruments, I've never had a compelling reason to switch to Ableton/Cubase/ProTools once FLS started expanding its functionality. If my workflow for other projects didn't so heavily involve Adobe's suite I might have made the jump at some point, but it's generally easier for me to do mixing and mastering in Audition and use RX5 for waveform editing.

It's all about self-motivation. If you're able to turn the project from a thing you would like to do to a thing you take as a challenge, it's easier to start working on it.
And when it inevitably fails, it's just a mixture of delaying and postponing it until you feel so bad about not doing anything you actually sit down for once and get at it. I've planned to do some work on the weekend and it's already Sunday and I've done fuck all so guess at what stage I'm currently at.

It is. Until recently, I hadn't used it since Wordbuilder was a standalone prior to PLAY, but I've been really impressed with how they integrated the two together. I put that clip together with only about ten minutes of re-familiarizing myself with it, so with a bit more practice I can definitely see it being an extremely powerful tool.

I'm currently trying to make a Pony-themed comedy series, sorta like MST3K, except I riff mlp fanworks. (although I'm planning on switching to full episode riffs w/ a little reviewing on the side, along with quick little one-shot jokes I can't find a place for but I just want to tell.)
SPOILER ALERT: I'm VERY inexperienced, and I'm willing to admit there's a reason I don't have any subscribers.
Nonetheless, you asked for it, so here it is.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsTZH3bumtGrswihSeqSW_g/videos

Although I admit, I'm trying to improve myself, so some feedback would be nice. My current thoughts are:
>I need to work on my delivery, it just feels... off somehow.
>I need to make sure I have enough jokes, there are some very awkward pauses
>I need to have some sort of opening monologue, right now I'm thrusting the viewer into the work with little more than the title.

Thoughts?

I'm still trying to deal with this problem. I'm a horrible procrastinator

I'm an artist that does commissions, and for some reason, everyone requests stuff that is at the upper limits of what I can do. Nothing quick and easy like this vector I did in a half hour. For my own intrigue. I wanted to see how Nightmare Star would look like in a more show-like setting

Starting this week I'm gonna try and set a goal of doing at least one of these mega-commissions per week, with a dedicated one or two hours solely to that. At least then both the income and uploads will be fairly consistent, and who knows, I may get faster at it and start putting out two or three.

Alright I watched the first one, the Rarity's New Patterns or whatever, and I had no idea this was a thing
I was very much entertained throughout this quality piece of art, though. I'm off to watch the second one.
One thing I definitely agree on is that you need a proper intro/outro commentary. Introducing what we're watching and having a short summary at the end would help a lot. Other than that, quality over quantity in terms of jokes is better, sometimes the video's speaking for itself well enough without any necessary comments.

I think I will try the "Quality over quantity" approach. Occasionally I would write in lower-quality jokes just to avoid any awkward pauses. But I suppose it would be better to just stay silent rather than stretch for jokes.
>>27799117
>>27799262
As for you two, I've got good news! Rather than riffing shitty fanworks, I've been scouring fair use laws, and comparing my formula to other videos, and I think I can get away with riffing actual episodes of the show. I'm currently writing the script for a riff of "Apple Family Reunion!" Those ponies need a serious lesson in carpentry.

I know you said ur busy, but is there anytime in the near future you could model the character for the game? I could care less if you use a base model and just make the hair, I just need something other then the filler channeling I have. Pic is the character. I'm willing to pay too.

I was using Moai SDK for the longest time, which was similar to Love2D except it had better portability for different platforms and devices (though it targets mobile most prominently).

However, I ended up dropping it in favor Love2D, because at the moment I don't care about anything else than PC release. Additionally unlike Moai, Love2D comes with proper keyboard and mouse support out of the box, where as I had to write my own C++ code to add that to Moai.

Tom Spiegel used to post comments every now and then on Pony/Spike Parade for months after it came out. I never deleted them because they were always way too fucking entertaining and the drama that ensued was also pretty hilarious. I've never seen anyone have so much love for a purple cartoon dragon.

I have been doing the Youtubes for awhile now but to be brutally honest the only way to get views is click bait or acting like a complete fuckstick.
Other than that I have been doing a Civ 5 series with all the pony mods I could find.

I don't think there's a content creator on the planet who won't have this happen every once in a while.

For example, I had to get this video done way earlier than normal since I was going to be out of town for the round of 16, and as usual I didn't give myself nearly enough time. I was able to only just barely finish the second half of the video in a (highly rushed) somewhat passable fashion before I had to leave, but I had no choice but to do the first half on my laptop later that night. Since it can *barely* run After Effects or Premiere Pro, I basically wasn't able to do much of anything aside from some embarrassingly poor video editing and ugly, bare-bones kinetic typography. I felt really bad I wasn't able to give Ken's voice-over the level of production value it deserved since he'd been excited to do that gag for a while and had gone through the trouble of recording it and sending it to me with more than enough time to spare.

Yeah IIRC when you have enough videos to fit in that one bar YT goes for a more compact view. But maybe check if you can somewhere make the homepage with the one video autoplaying and maybe it will create the next tabs as well, can't hurt to try.

I have a channel with 4 videos and it has the second layout. I didn't change anything, so maybe it's just new channels are now like that, but, have you tried to enable "Customize the layout of your channel"? I have it enabled and I don't recall enabling it, so maybe it's it.

In the interest of keeping this thread alive - I'm a b list pony musician who's been somewhat successful. I'm at work right now but I'll try to answer any questions anyone has. Not that I have any real wisdom to impart.

>>27825166
Any new songs you're working on? I only found out about you when you releasedTimberline Akimbo and since then I'm craving more folk/bluegrass-y goodness.
>>
>>27825220
I've got a few songs in the works, but over the summer I don't put out songs very often. Weekends are the only time I have to do a lot of work, and during the summer I'm usually out doing other things.

Most of them are acoustic ballads. They're what I lean towards writing most often. I'll do some more bluegrass eventually though. I'm kind of the only one doing that genre, so it's fun to throw bluegrass out there every once in a while.

>>27825166
What program do you use. What are the best free VST's to get. And I think that's it for me.
>>
>>27825717

I'm a bad person to ask this because most of my work happens outside the PC. I do mostly live instruments, so the DAW and VSTs I use aren't extremely important. As long as it can do levels, panning, EQ, compression, and reverb, that's all I need 99% of the time. But the one I use is FL12.

And same goes for VSTs. I don't often use VSTs not native to FL just because my genres don't call for it. And the VSTs I do have I pirated (don't sue me). So I can't very well recommend free ones. Sorry.

This doesn't answer your question because it's not free, but the most useful VST I have is Guitar Rig 5. Obviously it's useful because I play guitar, but I can get some awesome sounds by running things that aren't guitar through there.

The quickest and easiest way to get horse famous is by blowing Monique Creber

The way I see it, there are two ways to get more popular. You can promote yourself, or you can let your content promote itself.

When I say promote yourself, think FritzyBeat. He talks to everybody, comments on everything, collabs with anyone who's willing, and generally puts his foot in every door he can. He makes it impossible for people to not know who he is. That's hands down the most efficient way to get popular. The problem with it, in my opinion, is that when you gain popularity like that, you'll have people saying things like
>he doesn't deserve to be as popular as he is
or
>he's only popular because he collabed with this horse famous person

I'm on the complete other side of the spectrum. I don't talk to anyone, I don't collab with anyone, I don't respond to comments, and I don't plaster my new songs everywhere I possibly can. I release a song and do nothing. If my song is good, it'll gain me popularity and the community will share it themselves. If it's not, then I'll have to do better next time. I gain popularity much more slowly, but no one can ever question whether I 'deserve' my popularity. And I take pride in that.

There's no wrong way to do it. You can do either or both. But my personal opinion would be to just focus on the quality of your content. Identify what you need to improve (this is the hard part), research how to improve it, and then practice enough until you're better.

>>27825980
He's not really horse famous, but he's got a couple hits. They mostly came from EQD and genuine quality.
The other stuff sounds like normal country, which for this fandom is a breath of fresh air, it doesn't appeal to as wide of a group.

Hits:

Everything is just country brony stuff. Not quite shit, but it's better if it was actually your cup of tea.

Huh, I remember when you came out recently to writefag, people were asking about your channel and if you and the youtube were the same. Nice.

>>27826476
Hopefully I'll get back to writing more. Writing weird shit like that story is a fucking blast.
>>
>>27826803
It's only a shame that write-prompts are being banned now. Sucks a lot of the old fun from /mlp/. It's unlikely we'll get something that good and we'll have to hope on a prayer a new "Sex phone operator" threads will take off since that is the only thread to take off on a non-roleplay prompt.

But holy shit you were a monster in that green, and I hope you write more of whatever sometime soon

My new project is gonna take a while.

Does any one else have a fear of not keeping your channel active enough? Like, here I am, working on something bigger than stuff I did in recent weeks, but it will make it impossible for me to upload weekly, my last upload was three weeks ago and it makes me feel bad when I see myself not uploading enough.

Are my concerns over the top? I like to upload at least weekly, I make PMVs though and sometimes they take MUCH longer to complete rather than in a week, depending how complex I intend to make them. Should I not care about my upload rate at all?

Not the most efficient way Anon.

I believe the quality of one's work can speak for itself and gain an audience. However, sometimes that simply just does not work.

Take this guy and his music.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcSV-5sWMqU&user=Snailhuk%20Music

Some of the finest classical I have ever heard in this fandom. Come to think of it, I think one of the only one's with just a cello. To me, this music is quite simply fine in its own way, yet hardly anyone even knows about it after years gone by. Part of it has to do with how YouTube's SEO works in primarily promoting bigger channels, but also with how this artist has done little to no promotion that I am aware of.

If you want to be know, you have to do SOME promotion of sorts to get yourself out there. Especially nowadays considering this fandom is on a decline in numbers. A little promotion never hurt anyone WoodLore, so as along as you aren't a pretentious cunt about it.
>>
>>27826883
I think people won't blame you for not being able to upload videos weekly, that is a really tight schedule. I'd say your concerns are overexaggerated, unless we're talking about months of inactivity. You can make a short announcement/teaser video to show that you're liv and what you're working on, if you wish.
>>
>>27799262

That depends on the video Anon.

Though it usually help to start with videos around that time, then slowly work your way up, then switch up in between intervals from short to long videos to maintain interest. At least, that's how some channels sometimes hook me.

Yeah, that would be true. I will just camly finish this project, even though I have a video ready on the after 10th, after PMV today's panel at Brony Con ends, I submitted a video, no idea if it will be featured there or not, but one of the rules was obviously not to publish the video until the panel.

I doubt that video will get anywhere high as it was made rather quickly. But the thought of submitting somethig to a contest like that is still exciting.
>>
>>27826883

Don't burn yourself out over it Anon. Your subscribers probably have other channels to tied themselves over with till you upload.

Though you should be aware that YouTube itself primarily is focused on the frequency of your uploads, and the video length.

In other words, longer videos that are actually watched, plus the frequency equals more exposure on the site. It explains why LPers are so prominent.

Since yours is more of a passion project, I say take your time. Post when it is ready, not before.
>>
>>27826946

I think the two of us have had this exact conversation before. I don't want to come across like I'm saying it's WRONG to self-promote. It's not. It just yields different results, and I prefer not to.

And regarding that song in particular, I think that has more to do with genre than lack of promotion. I don't know if any low energy classical artists have ever been really popular in the community.

And I don't know if you know this or not, but that song is just an arrangement of Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYIAfiVGluk

It's strange that the artist doesn't acknowledge that.
>>
>>27826946
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcSV-5sWMqU&user=Snailhuk%20Music
quick questions:
>1. Who is the target audiance for that? The casual listener wants something faster to listen to. No matter how crisp the sound quality is, there's no way to engage the casual listener. Woodlore only gets a lot of people to listen to the very pretty or very fun songs.


>2. What does that MP3 do to make any notice it's relevant to mlp. Close your eyes and listen, and point out where it's mlp related. In all honesty it cuts into a classical version of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thhaf-bKWyg

>3. People can and do spread word of mouth still, and that's how things end up trailing to EQD every now and then.
