Byron Howard, Director of Disney’s ENCANTO, Leads Special Presentation on the Upcoming Animated Feature at VIEW Conference 2021
VIEW Conference 2021, the 22nd edition of Italy’s premiere animation, VFX and computer graphics conference, is delighted to announce a special virtual presentation on the making of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ upcoming animated feature ENCANTO. The panel includes Byron Howard, who directed the film with fellow director Jared Bush and co-director Charise Castro Smith, production designer Ian Gooding, and assistant production designer Lorelay Bové. ENCANTO is scheduled for theatrical release November 24, 2021.
ENCANTO introduces us to the Madrigals, a remarkable family living in an enchanted town hidden away in the mountains of Colombia. Every member of the Madrigal family is blessed with a special power except one, Mirabel (Stephanie Beatriz). With original songs by the award-winning Lin-Manuel Miranda, ENCANTO invites audiences to follow Mirabel on her extraordinary quest to save the magic of Encanto itself.
The ENCANTO presentation streams online on the final day of VIEW Conference 2021, Friday October 22, at 12:00pm PDT, and is FREE to attend. During the session, Byron Howard, Ian Gooding and Lorelay Bové will take VIEW Conference attendees behind the scenes on the making of the film, with a special emphasis on ENCANTO’s vibrant visuals. Following the presentation, Carolyn Giardina of The Hollywood Reporter hosts an exclusive Q&A with Howard and his creative team.
