It looks like that 2017 movie production is moving toward the storyboard side, with a new callout for people skilled in that particular position. The exact description:
DHX Media (Vancouver) Ltd. is hiring Storyboard Artists for a new animated feature film - an epic, character-driven fantasy that will be animated in Toon Boom! It has comedy, action, and a huge existing fan base.
Huge existing fan base and epic film definitely points to the pony side. If the script phase is complete, and storyboarding has begun, it looks like progress is moving along really well in this case.
