Furthermore, other renowned experts from Austria and the USA will talk about composing for Walt Disney Studios and the collaboration with Alan Menken, and will shed light on: How Alan Menken’s musical productions are created? What are the legal challenges of film and musical productions and what are the differences between them? How is a soundtrack for an animated film created? … And much more.
