TOM’S TAXI (animated series 52 x 11’, in development), 2017 - 18
created by Eckart Fingberg & John Chambers
ZOOPER FILM
Ludwigsburg

In a Nutshell

​Tom is a young boy of around 8 who happens to drive a taxi. When school is out and other kids
are doing their homework, or practicing an instrument, or just hanging out, Tom hits the streets
in his cab. And where other taxi drivers take on regular old jobs, with regular old adults, Tom’s
beat covers the animals. So if you’re a Polar bear from the zoo, who wants to head north to visit
the relatives, call Tom. Or if you’re an Amazonian tree spider, who woke up in the city, stowed
away on a papaya transport, call Tom. Or if you’re a footballing flea, who’s lost his dog, and
needs to get home for the match, call Tom, and he’ll take you there. 


Tom’s Taxi, the animal taxi service. Proudly serving spots and stripes since his seventh birthday.
