Except you literally objectively can't fucking save it. Period.

Any other answer is delusional.

1. Make a series about three super powered sisters created by the Professor
2. Hire anyone with any animation experience, ranging from many of the anons here who have fixed scenes or someone that has watched a youtube tutorial for Flash.
3. Trashcan it anyway because people will want to get the same quality and tone of writing as the movie and that just won't market well for a TV show aimed at kids in this day and age.

Buy/watch the old series, don't watch the new series. Politely yet firmly vocalize your opinion on the show, and more descriptively than saying "I don't like the new one, but I liked the old one".

He's saying is the only Reason That grace got hired was because of the steven universe comic he/she did.

Fuck, Nigga, you dumb.
>>
>>82372108
Before getting on PPG, Grace Kraft was popular for her Steven Universe comics.

CN might have seen how popular she was on tumblr and used that as a deciding factor for recruiting her.

Of course, it's just a theory.

Actually, you know what, I don't think this is the problem.

Her storyboards look just fine, and her concept art as well.

Seems like the problem lies somewhere downstream from her.

Things like this make me think the problem is executive meddling and not talent.

>Guys! Look at all these great backgrounds I made!
>Look at these storyboards! Wow, this is going to be such a great scene

It's an incredibly rough sketch, you autist.

The point is that a half-assed sketch still has more personality and quality than what's supposed to be the polished, professional, processed product.

>>82371608
The storyboard isn't amazing but it's still a far more dynamic looking image than the actual show

A lack of a degree is actually not an issue in the art world, the most important thing is having a strong portfolio.

The problem is that this artist has a really, really weak portfolio, being most notable for a Steven Universe fan comic.
They have no experience with animation nor any real familiarity with art styles that aren't SU.

its more about the composition of the shot, the body language and the framing.
The bull looks big, and has a decent design. Blossom reacts to a way that conveys the motion without needing to be told what it is, etc.

If they took that shot, properly translated it to on model looks and used that instead of the shit they actually aired, it would've looked much, much better.
>>
>>82378309
art inspires, half the drawfags around now were inspired by shows like the original PPG, Dexter's lab or Ed Edd n' Eddy.
As one of the few studios still doing 2d animation, CN bears the responsibility to provide its audience with presentable, professional and if possible, inspiring content.

Just cause it's aimed at young viewers isnt an excuse to cut corners or provide sub-par work. In fact it's a reason to try even harder.
There's a reason shows like Dexter's lab, PPG and Ed Edd n' Eddy are still so valued so many years after they were made.

Calarts or not, it's not the schools fault the students came out with such subpar skills.
>>
>>82380545
its the school's responsibilty to make sure students develop passable skills before receiving a degree.

At least, that's the sensible thing to do. Post-modernist, dada or whatever you call it is focussed on the conceptual, not the actual execution. to them, skill doesnt matter, the idea does.
Which makes them useless to a medium like this where a lack of skill severely damages the quality of the product.
