This delightful trailer for “One Small Step,” the first project from TAIKO Studios, gives us a charming peek at the story of Luna, a Chinese American girl who dreams of becoming an astronaut

Launched in 2017 with studios in Los Angeles and Wuhan, China, TAIKO teams founder and Student Academy Award-winner Shaofu Zhang with veteran Disney animators Bobby Pontillas and Andrew Chesworth.

Co-director Andrew Chesworth describes “One Small Step” as “our love letter to everyone who chased that impossible dream and the family that supported them through it.”
