.@dave_filoni says Rebels has “A more unified look, top to bottom than Clone Wars ever had,” noting Clone Wars took years of evolution.

Vanessa Marshall on working for the show: We have so much fun I almost feel guilty. #StarWarsRebels
— Amy Ratcliffe (@amy_geek) April 19, 2014
Filoni: It's a rather new expierence to have so many people reference Clone Wars now. Vanessa knows it backwards and forwards. #StarWars

Filoni says @vanmarshall has a deep knowledge of Clone Wars & gets excited reading the scripts. #WonderCon #StarWars pic.twitter.com/WJvTXwyMto

We just saw brief Star Wars Rebels scene where Hera flips the Ghost over a TIE Fighter and behind it, shooting it down #starwarsrebels
— Eric Goldman (@EricIGN) April 19, 2014
When the TIE Fighter blew up, I do believe the explosion had a bit of the halo effect the 1977 FX had in the movies. Nice! #StarWarsRebels

.@dave_filoni brings up the Artoo = dog, Chopper = cat analogy. He’ll do things on his own time or with a lot of resistance. #StarWarsRebels
— Eric Goldman (@EricIGN) April 19, 2014
The palette of Ralph McQuarrie's early work heavily informs everything about Rebels. #WonderCon #StarWars
— TheForce.Net (@theforcenet) April 19, 2014
According to Dave Disney has been very supportive of what Lucasfilm has been doing on #starwarsrebels

Dave Filoni: I want you guys to know Star Wars is still in the same hands as it has always been. #StarWarsRebels
— Amy Ratcliffe (@amy_geek) April 19, 2014
.@dave_filoni praises @joelaron for making those TIE Fighter explosions "feel exactly the same” as in A New Hope. #StarWarsRebels
— Eric Goldman (@EricIGN) April 19, 2014

Dave confessing his love of Tangled, had Keith Kellogg to look at animation and facial riffing of characters
— Rebels Report (@RebelsReport) April 19, 2014
Rebels has a, "flowy, traditional" feel as opposed to the near realism of Clone Wars. -Killian Plunkett #WonderCon #StarWars
— TheForce.Net (@theforcenet) April 19, 2014
Rebels is more classically “animated”, less trying to capture realism than Clone Wars. @dave_filoni says it took him back to Airbender days.
— Eric Goldman (@EricIGN) April 19, 2014
More concept art. #WonderCon #StarWars pic.twitter.com/s4Ja0UhBBC

"#StarWars is a feeling you get when you watch it. It can't be one thing, it has to run the gamut." -Dave Filoni #WonderCon
— TheForce.Net (@theforcenet) April 19, 2014
Filoni says from the first episode to the last, it will be about and focus on the main group of people/heroes. #StarWarsRebels.

"It's taken 8 years, but we're finally getting paid to draw Stormtroopers." -Killian Plunkett #WonderCon #StarWars
— TheForce.Net (@theforcenet) April 19, 2014

No plans to do an episode on Coruscant
— Rebels Report (@RebelsReport) April 19, 2014

Who will score Rebels? Kevin Kiner will score #StarWarsRebels
— Rebels Report (@RebelsReport) April 19, 2014

Rebels "sounds a lot more like A New Hope." -Kevin Kiner #WonderCon #StarWars
