  • Thunderbirds Are Go Re-Booting Female Characters in Action Adventure Animation
    Thunderbirds Are Go Re-booting Female Characters in Action Adventure Animation Anna Potter This article explores the ways in which children’s television producers are making conscious efforts to include non-traditional gender representations in their shows. The aim of the research was to analyze and explain the complex creative processes that can increase the cultural visibility of diverse female characters in action animation made for school-age children. Thunderbirds Are Go, the 2015 re-boot of the 1960s cult classic Thunderbirds is used here as a case study; the producers of the new series were determined to challenge Thunderbirds’ gender stereotypes, while retaining the lead characters of the original. Using approaches grounded in production culture, media studies and political economy, this research draws on extended interviews with Thunderbirds Are Go execu- tive producer Estelle Hughes. It reveals that despite successful efforts to achieve a more balanced representation of female characters in children’s action animation, commercial forces still exert enormous influence over how these shows are produced, distributed and experienced by their audiences. This article details the efforts of an established producer of children’s television to redress gender imbalance in an animated series, the 2015 re-boot of the Gerry and Sylvia An- derson cult classic Thunderbirds(1965-66) . Drawing on extended interviews with one of Thunderbirds Are Go’s executive producers Estelle Hughes, it examines how individuals can effect change in production norms in children’s television, working within established economic and industrial parameters. Hughes’ efforts to redress gender imbalance in Thunderbirds Are Go focused on increasing female visibility through the inclusion of diverse female characters, minimising stereotypical female behaviour and appearance, and reflecting on and adapting creative processes to improve female representation throughout the production process.

This year the company will celebrate its 10th anniversary after a record year in 2016 in which several major milestones were recorded: both the highest sale total in a calendar year of some $13.5 million and a new record price at auction in New Zealand which was set in September of last year for the major Colin McCahon multi- panel work The Canoe Tainui (1969) which sold under the hammer for $1 621 610, the centrepiece of the extraordinary Tim and Sherrah Francis Collection which was viewed by thousands of New Zealanders during the pre-auction viewings in Wellington and Auckland. In the last five years A+O has offered a number of significant private collections: The Les and Milly Paris Collection (2012), The Collection of the Late Nicholas Browne (2013), The William Vance collection of Theo Schoon Cave Art, (2014), The Ron Sang Collection (2015) & The Real Art Roadshow Collection (2016). Each of these collections make concrete the vital role played by collectors who frequently devote their entire lives to building collections that reveal connections and continuities within New Zealand’s visual arts and wider culture. The very longevity of such collections, assembled over decades means that the collectors frame of reference matures and broadens over time into a journey into the culture, frequently moving from first loves to works informed by personal relationships with the artists that become talisman figures for individual collectors and in turn the wider community.
