![]() Paul is a creative powerhouse, and I felt very fortunate to work with him. He also came up with the initial version of Nightmare Moon. This inspired me to come up with the concept of the ponies controlling the weather and otherwise being stewards of their world. In particular, I remember an amazing sketch he did of pegasi romping across clouds to make it rain. And my friend Paul Rudish, a key creative for shows like Dexter’s Laboratory, Powerpuff Girls, Samurai Jack, the first Clone Wars and Symbionic Titan, assisted me with conceptualization and art development. Martin Ansolobehere, with whom I had worked on Powerpuff Girls and Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends, did some adorable initial background concepts for this bible. I hired two artists to help me with this early phase. While developing the concept for the show, I personally produced a 40+ page “pitch bible.” I was hired to do this on my own, so I was free to hire the help I wanted with the budget I was given. The development of this show and the greenlight to pre-production were just about exactly one whole year apart.
