Crafting themes for favorite characters is no easy task. Composers across film and television discuss their approaches to writing music for iconic stories and the challenges of scoring projects with dedicated fan bases. From Supergirl to Darth Maul, the panel covers it all, featuring Ed Goldfarb (Pokémon), Claudia Sarne (Supergirl), Trey Toy (Castlevania: Nocturne), and Kevin Kiner, Deana Kiner, and Sean Kiner (Star Wars: Maul—Shadow Lord). Co-moderated by Louie Stephens (director of film, TV, and visual media, BMI) and Chandler Poling (White Bear PR).
