So I’ve been working hard on a new project and now all the major characters have been created and now work begins on the the very first story. Just playing around with a few ideas and setting then I can start writing the synopsis for the very first adventure. Then all I have to do is figure out how one story plot can work across multi-platforms; including iBooks, game apps for iOS/tvos and animation and creating original music and songs. Well thats for me is an adventure...
So here it is, a first look into #RockKidz.
#ROCKKIDZ: A MUSICAL ADVENTURE
Created by Stuart W. Lauder
Rock Kidz is a musical adventure about two young sibling kids, DYLAN-KEVIN (or D.K. for short) and ELOISE-JOY (or E.J. for short) LAUDER.
Dylan was the first to discover the art of music and at the age of 1 year he discovered his Father home recording studio and began playing the drums, months later he began playing the guitar and singing his own songs. By the time he reached the age of 2 years Dylan composed his first song using only the iPad. His first song was also used as the soundtrack to Eloise's first feature film, 'The Drooling Monster'.
After staring in her feature debut, 'The Drooling Monster' Eloise-Joy seemed to have a flair for the dramatic arts. Over the next year Eloise-Joy begins to find herself dancing and singing to all types of music. One day, Eloise-Joy follows Dylan to their Father's recording studio, Dylan picks up the guitar and Eloise-Joy takes the microphone and together a musical awakening begins.
Laying dormant in a vast darkness, lights flash passing through the floating pod. one by one, the flashing light show the same world by each with different outcomes across various times lines. There is one thing each dimensional world have in common, it is absent of music and sound. One light flashes by and is different form all the rest, the faint sound of music is hear, a voice echoes in the vastness of the darkness.
The pod springs into live and energises and from it, a dark evil entity appears. The Musical Awakening has begun as MUTE, an evil force that only has one thing on it's mind. To rid the world of music and begin a reign of silence. Muting music for all of eternity.
Mute stands over 8 feet tall and shrouded by a dark cloud of smoke and a staff that stands nearly 10 feet tall Encased in a glass ball, are trapped musical notes, captured of other dimensions muted of music. His cloak flaps around behind him and is pinned around his neck with broke musical note. Mutes face is also covered by the dark cloud but his glaring red eyes can clearly be seen. With a roar, Mute speaks with a deep, note shattering tone.
Mute's right hand minion is BAD NOTE, a tall, skeleton and weathered entity. Wearing a hooded cloak he hunches still towering over everyone beneath him. He speaks in a quite like, soft tone. His voice has the power of persuasion and can control lower minions to do Mute's bidding and when required can make anyone playing an instrument play a bad note.
Mute's left hand man and General of the Armies, FLAT NOTE is a bulky build entity. With glaring deep red eyes and a stern deep tonal voice, he controls the war parties executing Mute's commands. Flat Note is also a strong fighter and isn't one to be challenged. Undefeated in every war he's battled in he has also been the one to take down all generations of Rock Kidz.
Under the command of Flat Note is his Lieutenant TUPLET. An entity that has the ability to split it self into at least three separate entities. Its most common split is know as the TRIPLETS. Each of the Triplets has it’s own Platoon to lead. It’s other splits are DUPLETS. Duplets are classed as a spy. They can mimic it’s target and they have the ability to be in two places at once. It’s other split is a QUADRUPLE. Quadruples are a Special Forces Unit that fight along side Flat Note in various incursions.
Also awakened at the sounds of Dylan’s and Eloise’s music are the OCTAVE. A twin entity that tracks down Dylan and Eloise and help fight along them. They also provide a little extra magic. As Dylan and Eloise are only toddlers the Octave are able to transform them using a key tune into full grown twenty-something adults. The twin Octave are know by two names, Ottava and Quindicesima and they assign themselves to each toddler. Octave ties herself to Eloise and Quindicesima to Dylan. The Octave are guides helping both Dylan and Eloise master the art of music in aid to help them defeat Mute.
But before Dylan and Eloise can become Musical Masters they must past the final test from the mentor and guide; the Music Master, CORD. Cord is the surviving member from his band, and it was his band that banished Mute and his minions away in a deep, dark sleep. Cord upon defeating Mute finally became the Musical Master he was destined to become and has since grown old. Cord hasn’t had a quite life, he has been on his very own quest to find the next students who will succeed him and defend to many world from a everlasting silence, if ever Mute was to return. With the awakening of Mute, Cord had finally tracked down the two who will become his next students and learn the art of music. Cord sends out the Octave’s to protect the students, until he can arrive and guide them on their quest. The question is who will get to them first?
