In this interview, Steven Universe composers @aivisura explain how they craft musical identities for each character and how those are layered when they fuse https://www.vice.com/en_au/article/rq4nzx/steven-universe-composers-aivi-surrashu-interview
And when it comes to using leitmotif to foreshadow events or drop little crumbs about how characters and objects, this is a short but incredibly informative video from @OngakuConcept about just that with an example from Pokémon Sun/Moon
I'd also just like to thank @The_Toader, @8bitMusicTheory, @SmartGamePiano, @MattKenyonMusic, @leit_motive, and everyone else for putting on great panels and playing great music. I had fun meeting you all and I'm already looking forward to my next adventure!
Yeah but first I'm going to sleep. Night
