Project SATURATION: Opening Animatic

Well, here's the original description of this fine video, made by our very own Animation Lead, ZombieZephyr:

This is a very rough layout of the first scene of "Project Saturation," directed and produced by Supermariogalaxy13, written by JaxStern256, and animated by myself. Do note that this is VERY rough, and is no way related to the quality of the final project. An animatic is a moving storyboard, not an animation. Anything present in this video is subject to change in the final project.

'Synopsis: Luna and Celestia detect that Discord, despite being imprisoned in stone, is still at work. Instead of attempting to fight him, they free him in exchange that he enter an agreement to, once again, challenge Twilight Sparkle and her friends. On the surface, this is to improve the abilities of the main six so they can confront unknown threats in the future, which Celestia and Luna are wary of, but Celestia also believes that the six may be able to remind Discord of a past life, where he would not be so motivated to malicious intents.

The story will follow Discord as he tests the mane 6 (minus Twilight) individually, separated from Twilight and unable to rely on her magic. Twilight, meanwhile, is instructed to join Discord, yet will she be successful in turning his heart?'

If you'e interested in helping on this project, we are in need of voice actors and VECTOR artists (to make puppet sets), and potentially a few animators (though I already have two other animators I am currently considering). Anything art/animation related, message me. If you'd like to try out for voice acting parts (or suggest a role, even) message JaxStern (linked below) or watch this video for links to the samples: http://youtu.be/6LKUQ49isrU

Or, you can send us an email at SATURATEDMLP@hotmail.com

We need people who are in this all the way, and after running the numbers it'll likely be an hour long all together. Adequate skill levels are nice, but what's more important is that you can work with others!

very well done, only problem i had with it is that the text moved too fast at times and i regularly ended up pausing the video, to help properly understand, I am a fairly fast reader as well. I look forward to seeing this project progress

I am trying out for Discord, minus the singing. I like to think I can do a damn good Discord voice.
