| The young
recruits, guided by their mentor Caleb, have to battle, in a series of missions,
against the Roboidz – intelligent towering cybernetic entities who now rule
Earth – snatching Bio-Rods, the enemy's vital fuel source, in order to shut
down their empire. The
sheer size and scale of the mighty Roboidz was such that the production team needed
to find an alternative location to the traditional studio format to create Future
Gate, the Roboidz base. After
scouting numerous locations the production crew discovered that the empty container
ships based on Loch Striven on the Clyde would provide them with the the industrial
background needed to create a suitable backdrop. Production
has already begun on the ships and filming is set to continue until early March
after which state-of-the-art compositing and computer-generated work will bring
the futuristic world alive. The
show will air later this year. |
