Editing Supermarionation (section)

==Non-Anderson productions using similar techniques==
The puppet series ''[[Space Patrol (1962 TV series)|Space Patrol]]'', created by [[Roberta Leigh]] and [[Arthur Provis]] and filmed by Leigh's company [[National Interest Picture Productions]], used marionettes similar to those of APF's early series (including the use of automatic mouth movement). However, they were made in natural body proportions.<ref>{{Cite book|title=The Worlds of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson: The Story Behind International Rescue|last1=Fryer|first1=Ian|year=2016|publisher=Fonthill Media|isbn=978-1-781555-04-0|page=47}}</ref>

The Japanese series ''[[Aerial City 008]]'' (1969) and ''[[X-Bomber]]'' (1980) also featured Supermarionation-style puppets, <ref>{{Cite book|title=The Dorama Encyclopedia: A Guide to Japanese TV Drama Since 1953|first1=Jonathan|last1=Clements|author1-link=Jonathan Clements|first2=Motoko|last2=Tamamuro|publisher=[[Stone Bridge Press]]|location=Berkeley, California|year=2003|isbn=1-880656-81-7}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|title=Queen FAQ: All That's Left to Know About Britain's Most Eccentric Band|first1=Daniel|last1=Ross|publisher=[[Backbeat Books]]|location=Lanham, Maryland|year=2020|isbn=978-1-61713-728-0|page=274}}</ref> with the latter of the two referring to its filming style as 'Supermariorama' in reference to Supermarionation. In South Africa, similar techniques were used to make ''[[Interster]]'' (1982–86). The American puppet series ''[[Super Adventure Team]]'' (1998) was created in imitation of Supermarionation but with more adult themes and suggestive situations.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/400171/mtv-to-premiere-three-variety-shows/|title=MTV to Premiere Three Variety Shows|date=30 June 1998|work=[[mtv.com]]|publisher=[[Viacom (1952–2005)|Viacom International]]|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200613170713/http://www.mtv.com/news/400171/mtv-to-premiere-three-variety-shows/|archive-date=13 June 2020|url-status=dead|access-date=13 June 2020}}</ref>
