A new featurette for Star Trek: Very Short Treks takes audiences behind the scenes of the special animated sequences.
Now that all five Star Trek: Very Short Treks animated shorts have been released, Star Trek's official YouTube channel has released a new featurette with creator Casper Kelly. In it, he discusses the desperate measures he took to get Trek legend George Takei on board.
In the featurette, Too Many Cooks mastermind Kelly talks about his childhood memories of Star Trek: The Animated Series, and his disappointment with its cancelation. He intended to honor the series with the Very Short Treks, and worked hard to capture its distinct animation style, which he described having a certain stiffness and seriousness to it - which lends itself well to comedy.
What Are 'Very Short Treks'? Created as a 50th-anniversary celebration for Star Trek: The Animated Series, Very Short Treks consists of five surreal, Adult Swim-style animated shorts that were described upon their announcement as "anything but canon".
All five Very Short Treks can be watched now on StarTrek.com. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates, and watch the Very Short Treks featurette below.
