- Supermarionation (Kurzwort für Super Marionette Animation) ist eine spezielle Technik zum Führen von Marionetten, wie sie in den Filmen und Fernsehserien der Briten Sylvia und Gerry Anderson zum Einsatz gekommen ist. (de)
- La Supermarionation est un procédé mis au point par le réalisateur britannique Gerry Anderson pour sa première série proprement dite Four Feather Falls (1960) puis sa première série de science-fiction, Supercar (1961-1962) et popularisée surtout par Les Sentinelles de l'air (Thunderbirds, 1965-1966). Ce procédé induit l'utilisation de marionnettes très détaillées, manipulées du dessus par une série de câbles métalliques extrêmement fins, qui jouent à la fois le rôle de fils de guidage et de conducteurs électriques pour le contrôle de certains systèmes électroniques contenus dans la marionnette. La tête de la poupée est notamment équipée d'un moteur à solénoïde permettant une synchronisation précise des mouvements des lèvres avec les dialogues pré-enregistrés. Ces personnages évoluent dans des décors soignés à leur échelle et les différents véhicules futuristes mis en scène sont des maquettes radio-guidées ou suspendues à des câbles. Parmi les principales séries télévisées utilisant ce procédé, on peut citer encore : Fusée XL5 (Fireball XL5, 1962-1963), Stingray (Stingray, 1964-1965), Capitaine Scarlet (Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons, 1967-1968), Joe 90 (1968-1969) et enfin Service secret (The Secret Service, 1969). En 1973 est tourné également l'épisode pilote d'une série qui n'aboutira jamais, The Investigator. (fr)
- Supermarionation (a portmanteau of the words "super", "marionette" and "animation") is a style of television and film production employed by British company AP Films (later Century 21 Productions) in its puppet TV series and feature films of the 1960s. These productions were created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson and filmed at APF's studios on the Slough Trading Estate. The characters were played by electronic marionettes with a moveable lower lip, which opened and closed in time with pre-recorded dialogue by means of a solenoid in the puppet's head or chest. The productions were mostly science fiction with the puppetry supervised by Christine Glanville, art direction by either Bob Bell or Keith Wilson, and music composed by Barry Gray. They also made extensive use of scale model special effects, directed by Derek Meddings. The term "Supermarionation" was first used during the production of Supercar, whose final 13 episodes were the first to be credited as being "filmed in Supermarionation". Some sources consider its precursor, Four Feather Falls, to be the first Supermarionation series because it saw the introduction of the electronic lip-syncing mechanism that featured in all of APF's later puppet productions. The term was coined by Gerry Anderson, who regarded it as APF's trademark. In later life, he said that he invented the term to increase the "respectability" of puppetry, a medium that he had not originally intended to work with. According to Sylvia, the productions were described as "Supermarionation" to distinguish them from traditional puppet theatre. Noting that a major disadvantage of APF's marionettes was their inability to walk convincingly, commentators have argued that the term expressed Gerry's preference for artistic realism and his wish to make the company's puppet techniques more lifelike.

- Supermarionation (een porte-manteau van "super", "marionette" en "animation") is een poppenspeltechniek die in de jaren zestig is uitgevonden door het Britse productiebedrijf AP Films. De techniek werd volop toegepast in de vele series van het bedrijf bedacht door Gerry en Sylvia Anderson. De bekendste serie waarin supermarionation werd toegepast is Thunderbirds. De term werd bedacht door Gerry Anderson, waarschijnlijk ter imitatie van Ray Harryhausens stop-motiontechniek. (nl)

- When we got to making this better class of puppet film, I was looking for a more fitting way to explain how our productions differed from those of our predecessors. I wanted to invent a word that promoted the quality of our work, so we combined the words "super", "marionette" and "animation". It didn't mean anything other than that, and it certainly didn't refer to any specific process. It was our trademark, if you like. (en)
- We were determined to break away from [children's puppet programmes], so we treated those programmes as if they were something really special and hoped people would see the effort we were putting in and offer us live-action films ... When we did those early things we asked ourselves what we could do to improve them. Christine Glanville, who was so important to us as we went on with the puppets, came up with improvements all the time. (en)
- Because we had characters who couldn't stand properly without their knees sagging, and characters who had no expression, it was very difficult to play a love scene and impossible to have a fight. And so it seemed the way to go was anything that was fast-moving and had a lot of excitement, so it seemed that science fiction was the best option. (en)
