Premise

Let's Go Luna!, set in a world populated by anthropomorphic animals, focuses on three friends - Leo, a wombat from Australia, Carmen, a butterfly from Mexico, and Andy, a frog from an unknown city in the United States, who travel around the world with their parents' traveling performance troupe "Circo Fabuloso". Along with their stops, Luna the Moon (who is depicted to be about 5 feet tall, has arms, legs, a face, and wears a straw hat and red boots) occasionally comes down to Earth to teach them about local languages, music, food, and other customs.

Two half-hours, consisting of two segments each and four in total, takes place at a single country where the gang stop at, learn about, and meet new friends around the world. With a team of cultural anthropologists on board, Let's Go Luna! is “meticulously researched to ensure cities and regions are authentically and respectfully portrayed”.

Production Information

The show was originally titled "Luna Around The World". The show is storyboard-driven, a rarity in preschool animation. That means the storyboards are drawn first and then the dialogue. The show's art-style is inspired by vintage travel posters, cartoons made by UPA (United Productions of America), and Joe Murray's own style.[1]
