Amazon Prime Video has released a trailer for their upcoming series Undone which has a very cool and unique animation style. The show premieres exclusively on Amazon Prime Video September 13.
Here’s the trailer:
From acclaimed creators Kate Purdy and Raphael Bob-Waksberg (BoJack Horseman) comes Undone, a groundbreaking and genre bending animated series about a young woman’s complex journey to unlock her past and solve the mystery of her father’s death.
Alma Winograd-Diaz (Rosa Salazar, Alita: Battle Angel) takes her mundane life one day at a time until a near fatal accident induces visions of her late-father, Jacob (Bob Odenkirk). Through these persistent visions he urges her to tap into a mysterious ability that allows her to travel through space and time with the hopes of preventing his untimely death. This quest challenges Alma’s relationships and brings into question her mental wellbeing with those closest to her.
Undone is brought to life using rotoscope animation, a process that has never before been used in episodic television. The unique look of the animation, under the direction of Hisko Hulsing (Montage of Heck), utilizes a variety of mediums, including oil painting on canvas to render the backgrounds. Amsterdam-based animation studio Submarine has assembled an incredible team of artists and painters from all over Europe to bring all the animation elements to life, with rotoscope by the veteran team behind A Scanner Darkly at Austin-based Minnow Mountain (Tower).
Undone also stars Angelique Cabral, Constance Marie, Siddarth Dhananjay and Daveed Diggs. John Corbett, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Nick Gonzalez, Sheila Vand and Tyler Posey are among the guest stars.
Purdy and Bob-Waksberg serve as executive producers, along with Noel Bright, Steven A. Cohen and Tommy Pallotta. Dutch artist and filmmaker Hisko Hulsing served as the series director and production designer. Odenkirk serves as producer.
Undone is produced by Amazon Studios and Tornante Productions.
