Hah, I love that they bring back the TAS art style for new Trek.

Reminds me of the fan-made The Next Generation: The Animated Series and Voyager: The Animated Series.

Question is, why didn’t thy just hire them? They were perfect and obviously inspired this.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I feel this is a ripoff of the concept done as fan art by the professional creators at Gazelle Automation.

I find the art style inferior and not really seriously trying to replicate TAS while the Gazelle Automations pieces worked to be very faithful to the original Filmation style and colours.

Why not hire the creatives in Canada?

Very disheartening.

Oh hell yes, I just finished TAS for the first time this week too!

New content incoming!!

Glad to hear that TAS is still attracting new viewers.

I love TAS, and I hope the shorts are good.

I’m sad that they’re not going with the team that actually reconstructed the art Filmation art style for Berman-era shows.

I truly expected to slog thru it so my trek library could be complete and entirely watched. Boy was I pleasantly surprised! Definitely a comfort series for me now like lower decks is - chill authentic trek

not going with the team that actually reconstructed the art style

Ah, that is a bit of a shame. Are there any screenshots or something or just word of using a different team?

I’m basing on the images provided to promote the series (in the attached article).
