You don't get to bring friends.
I did some concept work on this. I just do as I'm told...
Local VFX artist as well (not on this show but have a couple of friends on it)
I understand

AI loved ReBoot, and the direction it went was a lot of fun, but the original theme song ended with: "They say the User lives outside the Net, and inputs Games for pleasure. No one knows for sure, but I intend to find out!" And I was always a little disappointed they never really lived up to that.
Literally sounds like Code Lyoko...
This is bullshit. Bob was a brotha and Dot and Enzo were latino.
Fight me.
Press release and a screen of the CGI.
About the only thing that reminds you this is Reboot is the Guardian badge.

Without breaking any NDAs you may have, can you lightly comment on the designs you did? Like was the goal to do designs completely different than the original show, as that screenshot shows, or to somewhat maintain the spirit and tone of what was done in the original ReBoot?

I can only speak for things I designed, but the art director and I both worked on old Reboot (Season 3 for me). We tried to keep things to spirit of the original as possible without rehashing for the Binomes. Let's call it "expanding" the designs. Hack and Slash looked very recognizable when I left off.
Again, I haven't seen their progress since 2014 so who knows how much they changes those designs.*
No, it's Gridman without Ultraman dude and combining mechs.So it's Cyber Power Rangers.
But with Guardian Icons.
Did you like Season 3? Because I also did work on that.
Fuck that. Just re-render the original show.
One of the coolest things about the OG show was how the outside world was a mystery and The User was essentially an analogue for God.
Now the users are just some silly teens. Lame.

LOOK WHO IT IS IN THE CRAPPY BLACK CIRCLE I MADE
Because the '90s were 20 years ago and they're making a show for 10 year olds. 10 year olds can't relate to a show about computers from the '90s.
I loved the original, but given the target audience, I can't blame them. They'd lose a metric shit ton of money targeting us, fans of the original. To much time has passed, they should have done it ages ago, but those are the facts.
That's not Reboot.
Really seems like an in name only thing though. These designs look like Halo 4 crossed with the Max Steel reboot.
Give me something like this
You're not the target audience.
Then why not call it something else? I thought the point of reboots and remakes was to capitalise off of old fans while attracting new ones?Because the '90s were 20 years ago and they're making a show for 10 year olds. 10 year olds can't relate to a show about computers from the '90s.

Kinda like the Gem and the Holograms movie from a while back I don't understand why they didn't just make a fun thing that embraced the cheese. There are zero 10 year olds who care about reboot and only like... a dozen adults who will subject their kids to a reboot of reboot.

Pretty much all of the original look and the characters for the show was designed by British comic book veteran Brandon McCarthy, That name might ring a bell for Mad Max Fury Road fans who sat through the credits.Damn, season 3 was some great stuff. You might be my hero.
As for this show... I mean, I'll give it a shot because I love the original property so much, but I'm not getting my hopes up.
More like Superhuman Samurai
I'm local animation as well (assuming you're in Van). I totally get it. It's a shame when people don't get to see the conceptual process, or when good work can be twisted and morphed into something unrecognizable. But there's an inherent lack of transparency that means maybe the most exciting stuff may never be seen. It's rough, man.I actually enjoyed designing the new Binomes and Hack/Slash. Who knows how much they changed since I drew them. I did work fairly early in the process back in 2014.
Lol you might have worked there same time as by brother years ago. He was in animation though, not design.Pretty much all of the original look and the characters for the show was designed by British comic book veteran Brandon McCarthy, That name might ring a bell for Mad Max Fury Road fans who sat through the credits.
Myself and others did some minor design work for later seasons. I mainly did things like episode specific Binomes, or sets or props. But my attention was divided among about 3 shows (Reboot S3, Beast Wars, and Weird-Oh's).
Out of morbid curiosity... this.Have they even talked about where this is gonna air? Is this gonna be on tv? Netflix? Hulu? CRACKLE?!
Aaaand this.Sure, but what does the name recognition buy except negative response from old fans? Just call it something else.
