ABOUT
A commission from BBC and France Televisions to create an animated TV series for kids (4-7yrs) of 52 x 7-mins.
After crash-landing on planet Proxima astronaut Cosima (Lois Sefton) meets her larger-than-life best-friend-forever Big Lizard (Dan Chambers)! Together they have a whole prehistoric world to explore and fun to be had, guided by Cosima's Dad (Josh Widdicombe) and on-board supercomputer D.O.R.I.S. (Mandip Gill).
Cosima and Big Lizard adventure around a world full of fascinating pre-dinosaur creatures such as ammonites and trilobites, exploring caves, volcanoes, swamps, deserts, and an underwater environment teeming with life. They meet Ammon, the handy ammonite, Twig the giant millipede, Rex the energetic trilobite, and Dunk the ever-reliable dunkleosteus.
Whilst Dad tends to their broken ship, and glitching computer, Cosima helps Big Lizard solve problems for their friends using the perfect blend of human ingenuity and natural knowhow - always making it back home in time for tea!
Big Lizard blends together adventure and discovery with subtle learning about science.
Distributed by Aardman, Big Lizard will soon be on ABC Australia, Czech TV, Estonian TV and Swiss TV.
Co-created by director Amaël Isnard and producer Steve Smith.
