Animated Pony Commission: Swift Flying

This is my second My Little Pony animation commission. This was requested by [:iconoutlawquadrant:](https://outlawquadrant.deviantart.com/) outlaw4rc. Swift Flying is an Original Character created by outlaw4rc. In this project I learned the magical art of Graphic Symbols. Why the **** haven’t I used them before?! It definitely made this project easier. The subtle little movements in Swift’s movement was quite fun to animate. The actual animation itself was taken from Season 2 Episode 22 Hurricane Fluttershy where Thunderlane demonstrates his flying abilities as well as some of Rainbow Dash’s flexing. It was animated in [Adobe Flash](#) and then assembled in Adobe Premiere Pro. Took about three weeks. Some effects will be added later (i.e. Dust, the whoosh, etc).

If there was a habit he had that grated her, it was Swift holding back his true potential. In the [impromptu](#) training sessions they held last week above the Stallihorn Mountains, she continually pestered him how wrong that was to the point that they made an agreement. Instead of using words, she should signal not to slack off with a muzzle tap, and she did so as he landed on the starting line. He responded with a nod. Leaning forwards, Rainbow watched her friend go through the same motions she did, but instead of getting his wings moving, Swift raised them skywards, and held them there. When his appendages swooped down, it shoved the air with enough force that it scraped off the surrounding grass. As the slender stallion rocketed down the track, a visible airwave trailed him, but it soon disappeared, leaving only light and medium blue streaks. Once the stallion made it past everyone, the sound he created was not quite like Rainbow’s, a high-pitched whine dripping with raw power. It was a touch softer, with a faint gurgle. Again, they all got an unwanted new hairdo. Twilight read the gauge, only she found the result a little surprising considering all the brown at the starting line. “Fourteen flat. Well, okay, I guess. Did you get those times, Spike?” Story by outlaw4rc ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
