Little Wingsters is a courier company on the tiny planet Winghaven, from where the mighty Moya sends four angels to help children everywhere; but when they mess up, who will un-mess the messengers?

Premise

For many reasons, children sometimes want to give up. The Little Wingsters remind them:
1) they can choose their reaction to any event.
2) They are never alone.

The main reason for this story is to show children their own power; to let them pause and imagine their favourite angel(s)… 

When they ‘hand it over’, their own minds can relax and find a solution.

Overview

At the core of the tiny planet Winghaven is Moya, a playful swarm of lights who listens via the planet’s earphones to children everywhere. Feathers on the Skynaps tree catch star seeds, forming cocoons to hatch new angels. In Episode 1, Koko hatches from such a cocoon, meets her fellow couriers, Punki, Inga, Koko and Xuki, and then Moya, where she learns the Rules, finds her apartment in the Keep, and goes on her first project.

I
n each episode, Moya assigns our heroes a project. The post-box screen shows the latest situation involving mainly two siblings, Trevor and Casey – this family being the human component, along with their two friends. The Wingsters are there instantaneously with their specific gifts, communicating with each other by thought too, all grasping a situation instantly. They think…

Chaos ensues: for example, Punki brings creativity, Inga supplies patience so the child can complete. Xuki jumps in with logic but only Koko brings joy. Soon they’re all busy, bumping into each others’ agendas.

Then Moya must rescue the rescuers with coincidences, odd events and sparkles here and there. So they never disappoint her… 

As the song goes: ‘Sometimes we may get it wrong, but our Moya makes us strong!’

This pic is a placeholder showing the children who feature in the show. The style may well change quite a lot. So the ‘normal world’ happens in 2D animation, while the Wingsters’ world is in 3D. There are strong VR possibilities here, too.
Not shown: Parents of Casey and Trevor.

Moya’s Singing Planet

As you’ll hear in their song: ‘Sometimes we may get it wrong, but our Moya makes us strong!’

I first heard Stuart Ziegler’s music live at an exhibition by Katherine Glenday. Two musicians performed with stones, shells and various other objects from nature. Stuart then mixed these with music he supplied.

I hope to collaborate with him to supply the track for Moya’s mashups which will probably include many more everyday sounds as the planet floats through space around the Earth, emitting music that Moya puts together from the sounds gathered from everyday life on that planet. Another inspiration is the work of Felix Laband who also incorporates everyday sounds, like a bath draining, bits of conversation etc.

Here’s the ‘Song of Wings’ which plays out each episode, can be used as the base for general theme music and as part of Moya’s mashups. Scorecloud is a great tool for non-musicians, like a speech-to-text app for music. 

So that’s why the music awaits an expert’s touch!
