Back from BronyCon Summer 2012

If this picture didn’t give the implication of how incredible of an experience BronyCon was for me, then allow me to state it in much more simpler terms: BronyCon was one of the most amazing experiences I’ve ever had in my life PERIOD.

I met so many incredible people that I honestly lost count. I happened to run into a ton of different people at the con. One of which included our very own Jen, the Voice Actress for Celestia in “Journey of the Spark”! I also happened to run into my good friend Dylan, the leader of the Beatle Bronies! I actually got to see them perform live at Bronypalooza, which was probably the closest I’ll ever get to going to a real concert. My voice has never felt so dead from shouting.

But to me, my personal highlight of the whole convention was getting the chance to meet Lauren Faust. Lauren has ALWAYS been a HUGE inspiration to me and what I want to do with my career and finally getting the chance to meet someone like her was a dream come true. As she was autographing my Wonderbolts bag (as seen in the picture above), I briefly mentioned the movie to her and her initial response blew my mind.

Lauren Faust herself gave me her personal blessing. For the people reading this, you have absolutely no idea how much this meant to me personally. Getting that sort of approval from someone I look up to rarely ever happens and the fact that Lauren was so humble about it and actually encouraged me to go out and make the movie I personally want to make means the world to me.

It was easily the greatest moment of my life and its something I’m probably going to look back on years to come. Thanks to everyone who made this con such an amazing experience!

Stay tuned, I’m going to post more pictures of all the swag I got ;D
