Series timeline
series 1 1954-1983
special 1984
series 2 1985-1990
movie 1991
series 3 1992-1999
finale 2000
Special taking place around series 1 and 2 and a movie taking place between series 2 and 3, concluding with a finale after series 3
Based on a beloved childhood classic from the 80s
The series takes place from 1954 to 1999 based on the original series by the late Britt Allcroft and the late David Mitton, followed by a few changes but I won’t go into detail that much
The series has been made in memory of Britt Allcroft – who created the original Thomas TV series in the first place
The series will be a mix of live-action and/or stop-motion (vehicles) and 2D hand-drawn animation similar to Disney’s glory days. (the non-vehicle characters and probably the vehicles’ faces)
What I’m gonna need help with
Music composition – in the style of series 5
Along with characters from the original series there’re Culdee and the Big City Engine from the books and even some original fresh characters joining the roster
The original series was gonna have a female narrator but was dropped in favour of a male narrator. I’ve listened to Julia Sawalha enough and I thought she’d be perfect.
