DaBatGuy Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 At 0:11 look at Pinkie's feet, I'm surprised no one's mentioned this despite how popular this scene is:2mlcVxGdFw4 Pinkie Pie is one hell of a baker, she can summon cakes in-between cuts.

SunsetSombra Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 See the last 6 seconds - it cuts from the front shot with her on the table, showing no cakes...and then cuts to a behind shot then back to her front again, and by her feet there are some unexplained cakes on the table.

Hippo Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 ^_^ Just kidding, I'm pretty sure that everypony is aware of that shot from episode 1 by now.Yep, pointed out the CMC together a loooong time ago, shortly after the board opened up! Though I didn't think to post it, haha.Well aren't you guys special!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaBatGuy Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 Here another one from the last episode(large image because it's hard to see in low def):Mr. and Mrs. Cake share everything, including Cutie Marks.FYI, Her real CM is a trio of cupcakes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyLittlePonyTales Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 JUST saw this one on Tumblr. Someone messaged a link to the Tumblr post to me.Took me far longer than it maybe should have to find the error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dessa Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I put this in here because I had thought Caramel's change was an animator's error at first, but that was before I realized that there was an intermediate stage. Now I wonder if they intended this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBatGuy Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I can't look at that without thinking that Caramel might be the first transgendered pony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hippo Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 So, I'm confused. Which side of her horn is Twilight's highlights? haha, that rhymes...Note: I did not flip these photos, this is how they appear straight from the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyLittlePonyTales Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I think they're supposed to be on her right. Which would be our left, looking at her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dessa Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I can't look at that without thinking that Caramel might be the first transgendered pony.It's something more than a few fans are thinking. Even if this wasn't intended, I wouldn't be surprised to see it become fanon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twi's back-mane switches sides a lot too, as does the fall of Rarity's curls. They play fast and loose with the asymmetries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianblackberry Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 hi hiFrom the looks of this, they're twins. (or just lazy animators?)If I recall the animation team were under a tight deadline for that episode so they just re-purposed a lot of the regular background ponies from Ponyille and also swapped around colors and marks. Thus you get background characters like a suddenly "female Caramel" and later again as male. Of course fandom just took the idea and ran with it producing all sorts of imagery since they already made Caramel the focus of M/M shipping.

Ocean Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Found this one making a video yesterday. It lasts for one frame.See it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginger Mint Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 hi hiI really want to know how they do their animation. I've done some animation in flash myself and sometimes when you've got thousands of keyframes, you can make a change and miss one. I'm betting it is that, because if it is just an animator having a laugh, it isn't a very good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else noticed how her hair highlights keep switching sides, too?Guess it's a flash animation thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dessa Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Part of it is framing and staging. Twilight's back mane usually hangs over the camera side. It defines her neck and looks prettier. Rarity's coiffure almost always falls away from camera, so you can see her face. As you can see in the image above, Pinkie Pie's lock looks the same wheter she's facing left or right, but when she's facing forward, it turns sideways.A few of these things have to do with readability.
