The series was announced in June 2021. [1] The production is notable for its use of virtual production techniques including motion capture and virtual camera for blocking of characters and actions inside Unreal Engine. This motion capture data was used as a reference for animators before final key frame animation was sent back to Unreal where the whole show was rendered in real-time,making the series one of the first to be rendered entirely in real-time. While the animation was provided by Reel FX's facilities in Montreal,the Mumbai-based studio Assemblage Entertainment done the additional animation.
The series makes tribute to other media.

Computer animation is the process used for digitally generating moving images. The more general term computer-generated imagery (CGI) encompasses both still images and moving images,while computer animation only refers to moving images. Modern computer animation usually uses 3D computer graphics.
Motion capture is the process of recording the movement of objects or people. It is used in military,entertainment,sports,medical applications,and for validation of computer vision and robots. In filmmaking and video game development,it refers to recording actions of human actors and using that information to animate digital character models in 2D or 3D computer animation. When it includes face and fingers or captures subtle expressions,it is often referred to as performance capture. In many fields,motion capture is sometimes called motion tracking,but in filmmaking and games,motion tracking usually refers more to match moving.

The history of computer animation began as early as the 1940s and 1950s,when people began to experiment with computer graphics –most notably by John Whitney. It was only by the early 1960s when digital computers had become widely established,that new avenues for innovative computer graphics blossomed. Initially,uses were mainly for scientific,engineering and other research purposes,but artistic experimentation began to make its appearance by the mid-1960s –most notably by Dr. Thomas Calvert. By the mid-1970s,many such efforts were beginning to enter into public media. Much computer graphics at this time involved 2-D imagery,though increasingly as computer power improved,efforts to achieve 3-D realism became the emphasis. By the late 1980s,photo-realistic 3-D was beginning to appear in film movies,and by mid-1990s had developed to the point where 3-D animation could be used for entire feature film production.
