![[PMV] Blue Pony Eyes](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/tUAp7xHboHQ/mqdefault.jpg "[PMV] Blue Pony Eyes
In this video Pinkie Pie sings a song about horses.
This was supposed to be 2012 Halloween special, but I kinda missed the deadline... Lets pretend its Valentines Day special instead. This explains why there is no season 3 footage by the way. I had this almost done for months, and it prevented me from starting another PMV project, so I just had to release it at some point and do something else.
Song: White Lung - Glue http://whitelung.bandcamp.com/")
![[PMV] A Departure](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/txF57L3hd58/mqdefault.jpg "[PMV] A Departure
Synopsis: Twilight Sparkle writes a letter, but her hoofwriting is terrible. (read the full description)
This is my first attempt at a serious PMV. It is also, in a way, a statement, as I feel that lately PMVs are mostly a bunch of vectors jiggling across the screen accompanied by flashy effects. A Departure tries to tell a somewhat coherent story, and the editing is of the subtle kind. I also aimed for a specific dark and contemplative tone/mood, which is achieved by using up most of the night scenes in the show.
Music: La Dispute - A Departure (from the album Wildlife)
Edited in Sony Vegas and GIMP. Masking was done using BgMask (http://registry.gimp.org/node/27601).")
![PMV - Scoot Park [Summer Madness]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/uV2s7MNpFVc/mqdefault.jpg "PMV - Scoot Park [Summer Madness]
This is the last Summer Madness clip, I swear. Watch the whole thing here if you havent already: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H41_EgKJMl0
The song is Skate Park by Andrew Jackson Jihad. The original idea was to just make a PMV of Scootaloo being badass and stuff. However, I quickly discovered that theres not enough footage of Scootaloo on a scooter. Even after I severely abridged the already short song. So I decided screw it, its going to be sad instead. Rainbow Dash was conspicuously absent during the hospital scene, so the obvious thing was to show her napping instead, much to Scootaloos disappointment.
Just for the record, nobody dies in this video. Except for the birds, of course. The bastards had it coming after laughing at Scoots in Ponyville Confidential.")
