Synopsis by Sean Hurley
The A.J.'s Time Travelers series combines live-action and 3-D animation to deliver entertainment with a message. The title character, A.J. Malloy, exercises his fertile imagination and curiosity by taking trips to the past in his time machine, KYROS. Accompanied by a wacky crew, A.J. encounters some of the most prominent names in history to learn the important lessons of growing up. In A.J.'s Time Travelers: Leonardo da Vinci, A.J. is cautioned against taking on too many projects when he decides he'd like to sign up for band. Crestfallen, A.J. pays a visit to Florence, Italy, circa 1505 to meet the original Renaissance Man, Leonardo da Vinci. A.J. and the crew of the KYROS learn that in addition to his known painting talent, Leonardo da Vinci was busy inventing all sorts of interesting and useful things. A.J. is encouraged and decides to go ahead and add band to his long list of activities.
