With his long lizard-like tongue, he seems like one… |
 There is a spectacular alien ship that appears in Atlantis High – it is the vehicle of the three intrepid alien travellers, Xeron, Vortex and Nebula. With its flashing lights and amazing speed, the ship is a sight to grace this – or any – universe. |
 Beanie certainly has weird ears but how different is he really? He is able to collect information in the most effective of ways. His eyes bulge and his mind whizzes. How does he do it? |

There are a multitude of special effects used in Atlantis High from the green laser beams that shoot out of Mr. Dorsey’s eyes to a specially made (and quite revolting) oesophagus! As well as the actual special effects, certain tricks of the eye are used in scenes such as the one where Mr. Dorsey eats a mouse and the aliens eat rats! The stunning spaceship is the one effect used most frequently in the series and was created by a team of experts in Wellington especially for the show. It houses three alien beings that come from the strange world of Fenorg, a star system in a far away galaxy undiscovered by mankindÜun
