That’s a shame that this might not get much in the way of fan coverage since the process of music direction is something I’m really interested in. Hitoshi Sakamoto once said that about as much as 50% of the experience derived from video games (he’s a video game composer) comes from the music and I’d like to know whether Kanno and company carry the same sentiments.

@omo – after I made that post, I actually also thought, why not the three of them? *laughs at self*

@Yyrkoon – I don’t think there’s going to be much fan coverage for this event, because it’s a Tuesday, and as the fans are saying, also quite inaccessible. But I think, since it’s not a concert (heh) there’s a bigger chance that reporters could get in and take photos. If no one records this, at least if there’s any news about their future works, then that would be good enough for me.

Replace Kamiyama? Noo. I’m pretty curious as to what he has to say about the process, actually. His works seem more traditional in regards to that so it may be good contrast with what Shinichiro Watanabe has to say. On the other hand, Kawamori would be an excellent third addition and I agree that without him we probably can’t get the complete picture.

I’m sure this conference will be be pretty interesting, I would like to be able to go. I also hope we’ll have some feedbacks from this conference

Kanno and Kenji Kawaii are one of my fav. composers so it would be great to hear what they have to say about this topic “How does music change animation? ” . I hope that somebody will post on the net what they have to say about it…
