I've been hard at work on a new cartoon, it's almost done but it's been a really crazy few months. I've been streaming while I work sometimes, usually with my pals Chris and Dion, I stream on YT and YT is pretty BAD at notifying people so if you wanna check it out, follow me on Twitter and you'll know when THAT'S happening. So YEAH. And then there's also my Patreon if you wanna support my work 'CAUSE AD-REV DON'T PAY THE BILLS VERY WELL, WHATEVER, back to work with me. I'm linking my Twitter, Patreon, and YouTube where I post about, get support for, and stream, RESPECTIVELY, so you'll NEVER be out of the loop again. Sorry I haven't touched Newgrounds since like March, YOU KNOW HOW IT IS, CARTOONS DON'T ANIMATE THEMSELVES.

At least I'm not doing pony cartoons anymore LOL

Hey friends!

Last week I released the finale to that horse series I started back in 2012. It's been a fun ride but it's time for me to move on to something I enjoy a little more. You can watch that below:

Just today I released the ANIMATIC to said finale, because why not? You can see that below as well. In the future, I'll release the storyboards to each cartoon I release, starting with the next one, to anybody who donates $3 or more to my Patreon, so if you wanna see stuff like that, I suggest you check the page out! 

Now that I'm done with that, I can move on to bigger projects that I care about a little more. I've decided to start moving towards short, self-contained arc-based stories told over the course of a few cartoons because it'll allow me to tell bigger stories while still maintaining a manageable length for each video and without increasing the time between releases. The first one is being worked on right now and hopefully I'll have the first part out around June? I hope? I'm not gonna give any solid release dates yet.

I've got a lot of cool stuff planned! Stick around!

whoa click this

I have a Patreon now! I’ll be making a video explaining it in detail, but the bottom line is that I love animating so much that I want to do it for a living. Sure, a Patreon isn’t going to help me buy a $4.2 million dollar mansion in Beverly Hills, but it’ll certainly help out a bunch! By pledging to my Patreon, you’ll be directly funding my cartoons! Plus there are rewards and stuff so go check it out if you wanna learn more! Click the banner above or the link below!

(Please do not feel obligated to donate any dollar amount, my cartoons are and always will be free. This is, you know, just gonna help me make them better!)

Hey you! So, the response to My Little Brony 2 was pretty awesome, I gotta say! Can’t believe it’s already been four and a half months! So I am still very much at work on creating cartoons, I took a slight break after MLB 2 but now I’m back! Here are some things you may have missed since then!

SPEEDPAINT: Astrid (How to Train Your Dragon)

Sort of an experiment for me, I timelapsed a drawing I did back in April. I might do more, who knows?

GRAND THEFT AUTO V IN 4K!

As clickbait-y as the title is, I really like this short cartoon I did in May as an animation experiment. I tried a couple of new things here, and I think they worked pretty well!

LOST ATARI 2600 COMMERCIAL

Also an experiment, I made this video as a class project at the end of May. To this day it’s the only thing I’ve ever animated in 4:3.

My Little Brony - Act One w/ Commentary

Ever wanted to hear me talk over my own videos for half an hour? Well, now you can! I did commentary for most of my major videos between now and June 2012 because… I felt like it?

So, right now I’m pretty content with just working on a bunch of small shorts until we’re ready to begin the next BIG project, written by Sarah Coyle​ and Jonathan DiNovo​. Here’s a screenshot of what I’m working on CURRENTLY.

I'M SO ORIGINAL LOL. Anyway, I wrote this one. It’s gonna be longer than the other shorts that I’ve done since My Little Brony 2, looking to be around 4 minutes. So yeah, stay tuned for that! We got a lot of good stuff in store for you guys, stick around!

See you around!

-Matt

Hey, guys! My Little Brony 2 is coming soon, but first, how about a new short?


Posted by MrMattimation - July 26th, 2014


I did inbetweens for a cartoon by Brainstorm. A lot of really hard work went into this cartoon so I would appreciate it if you went and watched it. Thank you. <3

Alright gang, serious talk time.

I realize that a lot of you who were watching my stuff all the way back in 2012 have been waiting for one thing. One thing which I am failing to deliver.

My Little Brony 2.

First of all, I want to thank you guys for the amazing support the first part got, both on Newgrounds and YouTube. I sincerely did not expect it to get as popular as it did. As I write this, the YouTube version is crawling up to 30K views.

That being said, I just want you all to know that the second part has not been given up on. It's just... been in production hell.

We had problems right from the beginning. The second part was re-written several times, and we didn't have a final script down until January of 2013.

Then there were some problems getting audio. PrincessRil, the actress who voices Twilight Sparkle and Applejack, did a phenominal job and sent us her lines almost immediately, despite her shit getting fucked by Hurricane Sandy shortly before the first part was released. One of our actors just kind of disappeared off of the face of the Earth. We had to completely write Pinkie Pie out. The others just couldn't deliver. I don't think it was their fault, we just kind of are terrible directors.

By February of 2013, we finally had enough audio and got started with the animation.

Then, in the springtime, my life just kind of fucking fell apart.

First of all, I'm still in school, and that took priority over animation.

And then, I almost lost one of my best friends.

In March or April, Sebastian Manautou (the blue pony) was admitted to the hospital exhibiting seizure-like symptoms after taking a nasty head injury during a wrestling match. He lost all of his memories from after his eighth birthday. That means, as far as he was concerned, he had never met me.

Then my computer stopped working, and it was several months before I got a new one.

These factors kind of just led to me being unmotivated. There would be whole weeks where I just wanted to lie in bed all morning. I couldn't animate. I couldn't watch TV. I couldn't even play video games, I was just so depressed.

But I'm finally back on track now. This cartoon is 15 minutes long, and I have about 11 minutes animated so far. I'm so close to the finish. Just bare with me, please. I promise, it will be worth the wait. I have another two scenes to animate and then I'm done.

Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.

Later, guys.
