The New Captain Scarlet is a "hyper-marionation" programme, consisting mainly of three-dimensional CGI, or computer-generated imaging, animation produced by Gerry Anderson. Though it is based partially on the original Captain Scarlet And The Mysterons, the characters are not identical, and the Spectrum Organisation employs different equipment. Moreover, Mysteronised Earthmen actually come back from the dead instead of having exact likenesses of them re-created by The Mysterons.
