What can you tell us about your new show, Black Moth?
KLB: Black Moth is a dynamic, female-centric eco-fantasy series with a core demographic of kids aged 9-12. The series follows 14-year-old Alice Evergreen, whose life is turned upside down when she discovers that her music has the power to transform her into the environmental superhero known as The Black Moth. As Alice struggles with self-doubt and the responsibilities of her new powers, she is joined by three fellow young heroes – Tim, Gamma, and En – who help her navigate the challenges of being both teenagers and protectors of nature. Together, they must harness their eco-powers to save the Forest of Cascadia and restore balance to the environment.
Music plays an essential role in the series, with each episode featuring a new track written by Alice. Music is essential to how Alice connects with her powers, and it serves as a powerful tool to communicate with the audience, amplifying the emotional depth of each episode while drawing viewers into Alice’s journey.
