Welp we’ve gone through our auditions, and among them, we’ve finally decided on our Rainbow Dash voice actress. Introducing… Emily Koch!
You may all know her as Rainbow Dash from the fan animation Double Rainboom. Needless to say, we’re happy to have her on the project! Thanks to everyone who auditioned as well!
That’s it everyone! Auditions for Rainbow Dash are officially closed. Later today, we will determine who will become the new voice actress for Rainbow Dash in Journey of the Spark.
To all those who auditioned, good luck and we look forward to announcing the new actress this weekend!
We are actually in the Production Stage right now. This includes working on Backgrounds and Animation.
The current estimated running time for Journey of the Spark is approximately 2 hrs. and 15 min. The running time is only an estimate and could be either longer or shorter when it comes closer to completion.
Yes. Spike is one of the primary characters of the story and is featured prominently in the film.
Without revealing too much, we took everything from Season 2 into account when writing the story.
In terms of how much content you should submit, really you can submit as much as you feel is necessary to get the point across. To answer your question, I have not heard of Adobe Ideas. But I would suggest following the application instructions and using the recommended software.

Due to changes in her schedule, we are sad to say that Jenny Nicholson has dolefully had to step down as the voice of Rainbow Dash in Journey of the Spark. We’ve enjoyed working with Jenny as much as she has enjoyed working with us and we wish her the best in her future endeavors.
Because of this, we have decided to initiate an open casting call to find a new voice actress for Rainbow Dash in the production. For anyone interested in auditioning for the role, feel free to the click past the break to find out all of the details.
The Journey of the Spark panel will be uploaded to the YouTube channel soon. We will not be posting the animation we showed at the convention separately though as it is a Pon3 exclusive.
Can’t make it to PON3Con this weekend? No need to fear! This weekend, we’re teaming up with Ponyville Live to stream the Journey of the Spark panel live for you guys online!
The panel’s happening on Saturday, May 11th @ 11:00AM Central. Come and join us!
Keep a lookout for a sneak peak and new developments this Summer. If you happen to be attending PON3Con next week or BronyCon later in August, stop on by as we’re going to be having a huge panel showing over the course of the weekend.
Thanks for the support and we hope you’re looking forward to the film!
As we stated before, we are not taking any episodes from season 3 into account for the movie, since the writing for the story was already happening when season 2 came around. However, we did adapt to the events of season 2 but afterwards decided that we can’t consider any upcoming seasons, since we would never manage to finish the story and animate everything if we did.
Just a friendly reminder everyone. PON3Con is literally less than a week away and some of the crew and I are going to be presenting some brand new material from Journey of the Spark on Saturday, May 11th! So if you’re gonna be in Omaha, Nebraska for the convention, stop by our panel to get an inside look at some brand new material from the film.
If you’re not able to make it, don’t worry! I will be recording the panel through my video camera and the entire thing will be posted in glorious HD when I return.
For a full list of details of some of the panels that me and some of my Crew Members will be hosting at PON3, here’s a short list:
Get excited everyone! The Convention Tour is finally about to start!
This is a question we get asked almost all the time. I feel the best way to explain why Discord’s role isn’t changing to how he is portrayed in “Keep Calm and Flutter On”, I would need to give a bit of insight as to when the story for Journey of the Spark was being written.
Journey of the Spark was first conceived back in November of 2011, around the time that Season 2 was still being aired. By the time that the film’s story was fully finished, Season 3 wasn’t even on television yet, with only a small handful of promotional material being released. But given all the speculation surrounding the upcoming season, I told the team that I wanted to bar using references from Season 3 and onward as I felt that the film would become a slave to the continuity and would never be made.
So essentially, Journey of the Spark became its own story with only the first two seasons serving as sources of inspiration and pieces of continuity found within the film’s story. Any references made to Season 3 and onward are completely coincidental. So while Discord’s character has changed due to the show’s continuity, Journey of the Spark still retains the idea of Discord as an antagonist.
No need to fear! Journey of the Spark will be released publicly online on YouTube and other video sites once our Convention screenings have concluded. The film currently has a tentative release date for the Summer of 2015!
For our Convention Tour, we’ll be presenting panels/presentations at PON3Con in Omaha, Nebraska from May 10-12th and BronyCon in Baltimore, Maryland from August 2-4th.
I will also be attending Everfree Northwest from July 5-7th in Seattle, Washington but we probably will not be presenting at that convention. So I will casually be walking about if anyone wishes to meet me!
