The song is "Stop Crying Your Heart Out" by Oasis.

Prismatic Dreams was planned to be my final PMV, one I'd been planning to make for a while. First of all, I was really interested in the idea of making a sad video for a change. For the most part my past PMV's had been overwhelmingly cheesy, so I was interested in flipping that on its head and breaking free from my cliches. I really wanted to leave a mark on the audience.

I wanted a video that told a really impactful story. Dash has always been my favourite and I've especially loved the sisterly dynamic between her and Scootaloo. I considered how that would change if they were separated. I began to experiment with the idea of maturity, moving on and finding a path forward. I'm starting a new chapter in life, seeking out a film editing job with a long term goal of moving to Canada. I wanted to express that in a different light, closing one door and opening another.

The PMV was going to be heavily symbolic. Most notably, it revolved around Rainbow Dash being killed off. I drew parallels between this idea of Scootaloo having to move on and me having to move on from my channel. I wanted to focus purely on the emotions. I saw the song lyrics as Dash singing to Scoots from the afterlife. She was gone, but that didn't mean the story was over. In a way, I wanted to reassure everyone the same. That even with me going down a different path, people could fill my gap. There's endless talent in this fandom. As a whole, the video was about Scootaloo finding a different way forward and being stronger because of it.

I also wanted this PMV to be different in its style. The format of TheeLinker's "La Da Dee" was so refreshing to me, this idea of working with an artist to create custom assets and tell a story. I was incredibly lucky to get Dracini on board and I can't thank her enough for the art she made for the video. The whole project didn't really work out for me, but I hope her work can be appreciated this way. I also have to thank SomeRandomPony9 for assisting me with the puppet animation. A huge obstacle was trying to make an animation-style video without the stress of full animation, and these two really helped me with that. Check out their stuff here.

So, what now? Well, I've been editing some videos for Breezy (Kuledud3) and my life is pretty much endless jobsearching for the next opportunity. I thought I'd upload this to show you all what I had planned. It's a shame it couldn't come to fruition because I love the idea, but hopefully you guys still enjoy what's there.
