Fantastic Forres author Ewen Watson and illustrator Sathya Schlösser are producing an animated timeline of the town

The video will be narrated by professional actor Alec Westwood who Ewen and Sathya have worked with on other projects. He has acted in TV shows including ‘Shetland’ and eighties children's classic ‘Knightmare’.

Be Like Pablo lead singer and guitarist Ewen is composing the music for the soundtrack. As well as for the band, he has previously composed music for video games and online adverts.

“The animation will be based on Sathya's illustrations in Fantastic Forres,” said Ewen. “The pictures will be brought to life!”

The pair hope to finish the project by June.
