Brony Polka Animated - 2016 ▶️ 2019 Version Comparison!

[@Viva_Reverie]

~~TURN ON CAPTIONS FOR A PRODUCTION COMMENTARY~~ ...I'll admit part of the reason I wanted to put this out was to have a video published on February 29th. Anyways, here's a comparison piece featuring various different old versions of BPA side by side! Featuring a neat little thing at the top left being a stapled-together "Animatic", featuring old crude drawings I made over the course of the video's production. Anyways! Let's talk schedule: My birthday's just around the corner (March 12th) and I'll be completing something or other for that, but afterwards is JoJo Part 4 But Really Really Fast! Yes that's right I did move my schedule around, you can read about it over here on this Patreon post! (At the time of me writing this it's not live for non-patrons but non-patrons should be able to see it a couple days from now, hopefully I timed it right) www.patreon.com/posts/34408051 Hope to see you later!

This vid just got uploaded, so, why does it say that this comment is 1day old(or is it just me)

[@Viva_Reverie]

Videos I upload go live early for Patrons for a day or so!

[@m2pt5]

Oh hey, your birthday is just 10 days after mine!

[@neputendo]

If anything is the best damn sendoff to any fandom I've ever seen Its gotta be this.

[@NRobbi42]

As for the show: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2HYfnaols2FfNE

[@gang_stalker_]

Sendoff? What are you implying? :P

[@danthewolf1997]

Exactly what I was going to say

[@Goremize]

Great while it was here, was a good time, glad to see its being sent off with a bang :)

[@MoKuZai]

you can definitely tell this took years because i studied the "Once Upon a Time in Canterlot" (my favorite) by quickly pausing along with low speed each frame to see the smoothness of the animation. this was beautiful and mad respect for your dedication to a loveable content creator.

[@umserhumano557]

2050 and this guy is gonna make this a vr only video that you can taste and feel

[@rewindd]

I feel like 2050 is gonna be no farther in the futyre

[@jotarokujo7160]

their pronouns are she and her just so you know :>

[@dogearo6146]

[@miami1405]

[@furryxd42]

I'm hugging fluffle puff from magic then

[@rulamantic]

*low octy* *chag* *octy face* *anime symbols* *TABLE* *ow* *ow* *ow*

[@Muffins17]

Yes

[@wrunknown7438]

Ow ow ow

[@aspoonman9008]

What if you made "MY LITTLE PONY But Really, Really, fast"

[@adelpiferjenkins3434]

It would be pretty cool

[@涅槃重生]

Cool

[@solarchrome]

It Would Be A Damn Hour Long.

[@randomlittleidot]

no

[@LiIacAster]

m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKPZh6ODiLxnidU I mean it isn't fast but it features a bit of every episode

[@ZenithLibrarian]

It’s really neat seeing how certain clips were touched up and polished.

[@Addy_The_Baddy]

I think 4:21 has my favourite animatics from anything ever

[@TheLastStardaughter]

I gotta say I appreciate the attention to details like the mane bounce being consistent through the whole video.

[@arouraskeatch5903]

It's really interesting to see that alot of the small touches that make this look professional and emersive (bouncy manes, active background, small items flingig off screen) where added right at the end. Also, that story board is the best

[@robbiethecontroller9642]

4:53 top left 'Octy face' XD

[@diathvisuals7500]

I’m so glad I was apart of this community when this song made and all of its creations. I’m especially happy to see BPA release and the amazing feedback it got. Thank you Viva, your work on this was outstanding and I’m really excited to see your future projects!

[@youtubenerds6167]

It's really crazy seeing the animatic side by side with the releases. It's unfathomable to me that most animations really do start out that rough. (very cool stuff)

[@TojikCZ]

When is "That afternoon I decided to sing about homosexual gravel" (in french) coming out?

[@Viva_Reverie]

I've still got a few months 👀

[@ipsojure2137]

Very cool. I‘m a bit surprised that you actually finished , I know that feeling of having to make sure everything is perfect. You always find something to improve. I‘m glad you did tho. The final version is great and feels very polished!

[@aracarii.]

4:25 i was not expecting a homestuck reference in this

[@jaydeleon8094]

Yeah it’s from BDP’s amv

[@krystal55588]

Lol same

[@DoctorDerpy]

Bottom Right: Client expectation Top Left: Client budget

[@wrunknown7438]

In some cases that is true

[@InariOkami]

I love this comparison video with the commentary along it, the project have so much love into it and deserves to be appreciated. Seeing it from the start since the animatic stage until the final release stage show us how much work it took and how Viva Reverie puts more than that on it: Love, caring and a lot of detail for give us a memorable video connected with the past of our fandom and brights right now like all the amazing fandom stuff from the golden era of the Brony fandom. I hope AnimatedJames has had the opportunity of watch it. I love the rough animatics and how the ideas was there from the start and where developed without losing focus in their way to be finished. Thanks a lot Viva Reverie! I hope this inspire people to still creating and looking for finish any personal project, music, animation or even personal goals.

[@knightmare820]

There are some little details that almost no one will see, but they still add to the project itself, loved to see the progress of it from the begging

[@Sollace]

OH GOD I FORGOT TO TURN ON CAPTIONS!!!!! Looking at this, I can really see how this could take so many years. The amount of work and effort, and skills progression that went into this is insane.

[@EmileeAria413]

A Director’s commentary? What a perfect excuse to watch this brilliant video for the 27th time!

[@sweet_demonic_dreams4614]

5:37 "Get out of my life hey!" XD

[@YZaiCreates]

I love the attention to detail and the sheer amount of effort that went into every bit. it's a great piece of work!

[@Vicky_iguess]

1:03 their still vibing

[@cyanidecrystal9667]

I'm so glad you also think the Double Rainboom -> Rainbow Factory transition is the best one in the song. It fits so well. (Also this rendition of Rainbow Factory is better than the original tbh.)

[@michaelk5976]

Making this medley must be really hard for animated James, putting all this different kind of songs and genres together! But this video looks like hell of a work too! It's awesome! Thank you so much! /)♡(\

[@allenholloway5109]

Don't worry, the mane bounce was totally worth the effort. It just adds this unconscious greatness to the whole thing.

[@lilypad.7485]

4:56 in the animatic one Thank you

[@marvinluthardt]

This is so beautiful! Iam so happy that you are a part of our Community.

[@lemonshrikecatworthy7964]

I love his singing voice, and the falsetto!

[@soartearstudio]

Ngl I REALLY want to see you animate your version of Pegasus Device! The flashing and color theme was so cool!

[@ianmcnally373]

My first thought was that it sounded like animated James. Fuckin knew it

[@chimcakey3365]

i remember when i was younger, i used to watch the original video when it was still visible all the time and it was my favorite video at the time! thank you for remaking a video that many people loved and me and other people will continue to love it through this remake :)

[@Miskamouskamikumouse]

This looks amazing and a wonderful tribute to the brony fandom. Just friggen awe inspiring and beautiful

[@ScorpionsFatality]

[@Bronyboiiiii]

Wow. Huge respect again for this masterpiece. It's really amazing what a few people can animate. Thank you very much for this animation.

[@N0tsaved]

Thank you so much for those captions. that was a trip

[@Kmn483]

The bouncy hair definitely livens the animation up.

[@ralek592]

I know that CHAG is just short for changeling so you would remember where to put the changeling silhouettes but it kept cracking me up because it feels like a racist slur of some kind, or just saying "shag"

[@trolley323]

The end video would not have been the same without the hair bump, so good thinking there. Thanks for the excuse to watch it again! Cheers to one heck of a fandom and here's to the future!

[@patrickyeh6101]

Awesome wrap up of the fanfictions! This will always be apart of my memory.

[@knapfordman1984]

[@jiado6893]

Does anyone know what happened to Animated James? I don’t want specifics, I just want to know if they’re OK and got through the pandemic.

[@mr.spelunky1987]

He dated a minor put his fart fetish art online and apparently was very toxic online and he was very depressed because he felt like everyone hated him so he started bettering himself he's been working to get money to get professional help

[@goldenoak13]

Awesome! You guys got a lot of progress! Thank you for making this!

[@HurrPaulDurr]

Ain't been interested in this show for like 8 fucking years but this was a nice throwback.

[@awsomeness4564]

Ngl this is really good animation and song writing along with everyrhing else. Imma be honest not my type of thing but still like it. To each to their own.

[@noahramos1768]

I don't know what a briny is...nor have I ever experienced something like this before.......but I cant believe how much I enjoyed this......why.....what is this......why the hell do I love it so much?!?!??!?!?!

[@VeridanaSea]

[@COFFEEWSUGA]

[@imlate-official3714]
