In the late 1960s
Gerry Anderson started to create new live-action TV shows in combination with model miniatures and props. These included
UFO (1970),
The Protectors (1972), and
Space: 1999 (1975). He took on various roles as an art director, producer and executive producer.
Just as he did with the puppet series, Hill continued to be involved in series concepts, vehicle, character and set design for the live-action series.
