Rollercoaster of Friendship

Welcome to MLP EG: Rollercoaster of Friendship!

3rd Person POV

Fade in to a long overhead shot of an empty amusement park, seen from a short way outside the main entrance during the day. The camera pans slowly across the expanse of rides and attractions as a female voice begins to speak in dramatic fashion.

"Experience the world like you've never seen it before at the one, the only...Equestria Land!" Vignette exclaimed. 

On these last two words, cut to a mechanized float as it rolls out of a hangar. Standing atop it are four women of varied skin and hair colors, waving/gesturing around themselves to a nonexistent crowd. They are clad in gray bodysuits and large white cardboard cutouts in assorted geometric shapes: triangle, circle, two squares—one larger than the other. The voice's next words are delivered in the tone of an exasperated movie director.

"Stop! Cut!" Vignette shouted. 

The float comes to an abrupt halt, nearly jarring the riders off its edge, and the camera pans slightly to frame the speaker, Vignette Valencia, standing directly in front of it. Her back is turned for the moment, exposing a long, sleeveless brown smock over a strapless white top with blue trim and separate short sleeves covering the upper arms. Light yellow skin with a tinge of tan; short, wavy pink hair shot through with white streaks and fading nearly to white at the ends; a patterned brown headband with a cluster of leaves and berries above each ear.

"Cut!" Vignette shouted. 

She turns to the camera and puts a hand to her forehead. The smock hangs open in front to show blue-green shorts and a belt buckle styled as a brown leaf, and a pale pink, square-cut gem is mounted on a cord choker at her throat. The brown-shadowed eyes over the pink-tinted lips are pale blue, with a beauty mark below the outer corner of the right one.

"Why is everyone dressed like they're not dressed?" Vignette asked. 

The camera angle changes to frame the object of her ire—a violet-skinned older woman whose piled-high hair displays two darker shades and is parted down the middle. Her long-sleeved coat is done in white and gray with gold trim and shoulder pads, a pink cape hanging down the back, and a high collar styled as a set of wings. The eyes are hidden behind opaque black sunglasses, and she speaks with a heavy Russian accent while stepping closer and folding her arms. This is the costume designer.

"Because you keep changing your mind about the costumes, Vignette Valencia." The Designer stated. 

Longer shot, framing both in full for the first time. Vignette wears ankle-length brown boots, and her smock bears a purple fringe and a small leaf/berry pin on one lapel. The designer's coat hem reaches down past the tops of her knee-high purple boots with platform soles.

"Do you know what it means to be in charge of public relations for this park? It's my job to make sure the world knows how amazing Equestria Land is gonna be. And in two weeks, when there's fifty thousand people here for opening day, the last thing they'll see before they leave at night will be this light parade—and by extension, your costumes, which apparently do not exist as of this moment." Vignette stated. 

A few more steps bring her into the older woman's personal space as a self-assured smile crosses her lips.

"BYBB: Be Yourself, but Better. Do you even have a philosophy?" Vignette asked. 

"GWIQ: Guess What? I Quit." The Designer stated. 

She strides away, leaving Vignette to utter a shuddery moan followed by a long inhalation to compose herself.
