CGI Model[]
In 2009, the series introduced Computer-Generated Imagery (CGI) as a replacement for the show's long-standing live-action models. In 2016, Beresford was created from scratch in CGI by Arc Productions for the 2017 movie, Journey Beyond Sodor. The model was "hand-sculpted" in Maya, a 3D animation and modelling software.
