This video is a celebration of what is often referred to by critics as the “Revival Era” of Walt Disney Animation Studios, which largely took place over this past decade. I included 2009’s “The Princess and the Frog” so the decade would be complete with “Frozen II” releasing 10 years later, since Disney’s next film only releases at the end of this coming year.
A lot of people are asking why I didn’t include this decade’s films from Pixar Animation Studios, like Coco, which are also “Disney” films. The truth is, that by doing so, I’d have to include all the Pixar films from this decade, of which only a few are musicals, and some (The Good Dinosaur, Incredibles 2) don’t feature any original vocal music at all. Thus, I decided to focus on Walt Disney Animation Studios Feature Films

Over the past several months I've just been so busy that I haven't really had any new soundscapes to share, but I had actually finished this one way back in December 2021, I just couldn't share it then due to copyright (since Encanto was so new)
I'm planning on sharing more soundscapes as well as new original music, but at the same time I'll continue to be creating artwork, so make sure to follow my Instagram: www.instagram.com/sanjaycreates
Thank you all SO much for all the support! I really hope you enjoy this one!Electric Easy Poster Illustration - TimelapseSanjay2022-03-22 | This poster illustration was a little different than my usual ones because before I began painting the actual poster, I had to visualize and design the characters from the audio podcast.

This video was a challenge because I didn't have the isolated vocals readily available and had to filter them myself, but I'm happy with how it turned out. This might be the only soundscape I make that isn't in the film's original language, but I got inspired when I realized how closely some of the vowels in the chorus match up with the animation. Enjoy!Encanto Sound Design Test (Wear Headphones)Sanjay2022-01-24 | This was a short practice idea I made for fun a little while back, but I'm going to include it in my Soundscape Edit of We Don't Talk About Bruno. #Encanto #WeDontTalkAboutBrunoIf Encanto had a SeriesSanjay2021-12-30 | Hope you enjoy! I was partially inspired by Disney Animation's Short Circuit series, where filmmakers are given the opportunity to explore original stories in their unique visual styles. I think it would be cool to see these characters again, but rather than developing an entirely new storyline, I feel like it would be just as interesting to watch them go about their daily lives in an episodic format. #EncantoSeries #EncantoEncanto Blu-ray Packaging DesignSanjay2021-12-09 | #Encanto #Steelbook #bluraycollection Just a design I made for fun Here are my posts of the design on social media: Twitter: twitter.com/SanjayCreates/status/1466581613131681796 Instagram: instagram.com/p/CXAMLOwNSp_/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linkSanjay - Feels So Good (To Be Young)Sanjay2021-08-06 | Make sure to watch in 4K 60FPS HD if possible!

I used footage from Zenimation S2E1 "Rain," as well as the original film and its trailer. Then, I converted all the footage to 60FPS and added additional sound effects and ambient noises. Hope you enjoy!Raya and The Last Dragon BLU-RAY DESIGNSanjay2021-04-30 | This is the first time I've shared a video like this but I've been extremely involved in package design of physical media for so long. I loved this movie so much and thought it would be a cool opportunity to develop this idea, especially since many Target exclusive Blu-rays feature similar layouts.

I was completely obsessed with the recent trailer that teased this song, but the song ended up having different production. I wanted to recreate the orchestral sound of the trailer so this is my attempt. I might redo it later if someone filters clearer vocals. I hope you enjoy!Show Yourself - BEHIND the SoundscapeSanjay2021-02-24 | Enjoy :) had to blur the visuals for copyright reasons #WearHeadphones #SoundscapeInto the Unknown - BEHIND the SoundscapeSanjay2021-02-22 | A lot of comments under my soundscape videos ask what I've added to the original scene, so I decided to start sharing videos that highlight my changes. I actually enjoy watching this video and find it somewhat satisfying to hear all of the sounds I added play at once. I hope you enjoy, and lookout for more coming soon! #WearHeadphones #SoundscapeTaylor’s Version- Concept TrailerSanjay2021-02-05 | Inquiries: SanjayMusic.info@gmail.com I'll finish writing this later because I have so many thoughts. I've grown up listening to Taylor Swift and I have so many memories attached to each album. A lot of the music I listen to registers a visual imprint in my mind, and I wanted to explore how Taylor revisiting her first 6 albums could be announced. #TaylorSwift #TaylorsVersionRaya And The Last Dragon Poster Illustration 2 - TimelapseSanjay2021-02-05 | This is the first time I've illustrated 2 full posters for a film and it's also the first time I've finished any poster for a film before its release, but I'm so excited for this movie that I couldn't wait! I wanted to try a more dynamic approach for this poster and imagine it as more of a theatrical poster than my previous one. I hope you enjoy! #DisneyRaya #RayaAndTheLastDragonRaya And The Last Dragon Poster Illustration - TimelapseSanjay2021-02-04 | Enjoy! #RayaAndTheLastDragon #DisneyRayaTiana Concept Artwork - Timelapse #TianaTheSeries #TianaSanjay2021-02-03 | Inquiries: SanjayMusic.info@gmail.com
Happy New Year! It's been a while since my last video, and since so many people enjoyed the concept, I wanted to explore it even more! This is how I envision the fictional land of Maldonia based on the very limited information we have so far. I hope you enjoy!

I've had this idea for a loooooong time, and I finally decided to put it into motion. I hope you enjoy!
Dialogue is all by the original voice actors and was taken from the Princess And the Frog video game and a cast interviewHalle Bailey X Ariel Painting - TimelapseSanjay2020-12-06 | I feel like a lot of people are gonna enjoy this one.Sheerah Painting (from Brown Skin Girl) - TimelapseSanjay2020-12-05 | This song is another one of my favorites on the album and the film sequence was done so beautifully! I painted this shot, but I ended up not having room for it in the trailer I made, but I still wanted to share it!Lord Afrixana Painting - TimelapseSanjay2020-12-05 | I loved reimagining Black Is King in a painterly style and thought that it might be cool to break down one of the shots and show the progression of my artwork!
Lord Afrixana is featured in "Don't Jealous Me" alongside Tekno, Mr Eazi & Yemi Alade, and he makes an appearance during the song's film sequence. Like many of the artist's showcased on "The Gift" album, he's insanely talented, and I can't wait to see what he shares next!If Black Is King was an Animated FilmSanjay2020-12-03 | I love Black Is King, it's probably the most visually stunning live-action film I've ever seen! I have been wondering what it might look like if it was animated, and what elements could be exaggerated, so this is my interpretation! I've been working on this on-and-off since the film's release in July, and it's one of my shorter videos, but I'm so proud of how it looks, so I hope you enjoy!Rihanna - Dancing In The Dark (Sanjay Remix)Sanjay2020-12-02 | I love this song and I wanted to make it feel more upbeat. I haven't done a pop remix for a while except for Katy Perry, and I experimented a lot with the sounds for this one. I hope you enjoy!He Mele No Lilo - Soundscape (Sound Redesign)Sanjay2020-11-30 | Watch in 4K! I recently rewatched the film and fell in love with it all over again! #WearHeadphones #SoundscapeFrozen II - Some Things Never Change (Reprise/Epilogue Mix)Sanjay2020-11-30 | I'm not super happy with this final mix but I wanted to share my idea anyway. I had to obscure the video for copyright reasons, and I decided to use a 3D loop that I built on Blender, though it lags in some areas. I hope you enjoy!Katy Perry - Roar (Smile World Tour Concept)Sanjay2020-11-25 | ...Almost There ft. Chloe X Halle (Remastered)Sanjay2020-11-21 | Sorry if the thumbnail made you think this would be entirely animated. I love Chloe X Halle and I thought their cover of this song was beautiful, but their audio was mixed slightly differently than Anika Noni Rose. I combined their parts from the cover with Anika Noni Rose's studio vocals to make it sound more cohesive as a whole. For the visuals, I tried something new by drawing in a completely flat style (like the film scene), which I'm not used to, but I really like how it turned out! I hope you enjoy.Show Yourself - Soundscape (Sound Redesign) WITH VISUALSSanjay2020-11-18 | I have no real understanding of why some particular scenes are blocked while others are licensed and monetized, but I'm glad I finally found a way that works. Visuals begin at 0:29 #WearHeadphones #SoundscapeLet It Go - Soundscape (Sound Redesign) (4K UHD)Sanjay2020-11-07 | I used the intro from Once Upon A Snowman but I was already working on this way before the short was even announced!

Hope you enjoy!Katy Perry - Wide Awake (Sanjay 2020 Remix)/ Smile Tour ConceptSanjay2020-08-29 | This was my favorite single from the Teenage Dream album (which just turned 10 years old!) and I've always wanted to reimagine it if it wasn't produced by Dr. L*ke. I added a lot more instruments to exaggerate the organic elements of the song, and I recorded my voice singing some more harmonies, starting around the second chorus. I hope you enjoy!How Far Ill Go Soundscape (Sound Redesign) (4K)Sanjay2020-08-14 | This is really weird but the only way it would let me upload the full song if I split it up. Hope you enjoy! #WearHeadphones #SoundscapeDown In New Orleans/Finale - Soundscape (Sound Redesign)Sanjay2020-07-28 | This is less of a "soundscape" and more of a remix, because I rebuilt most of the production and included sounds from another version of the song. Nevertheless, I hope you like it! This is the first time I'm trying with a 2D-animated film! #WearHeadphones #SoundscapeShallow Soundscape (Sound Redesign)Sanjay2020-07-25 | This probably has the most subtle adjustments of all my soundscape edits, mainly because this isn't a fantasy film. Nevertheless, I wanted to reconstruct this scene's audio to make it more immersive. I hope you enjoy! #WearHeadphones #SoundscapeInto The Unknown Soundscape (Sound Redesign)Sanjay2020-07-24 | A lot of the environment sounds came from an incredible edit by @SCRFilms that you can watch here! youtube.com/watch?v=p9RR8Ckrp20
My main contribution to this video was adding more instruments and musical effects to the arrangement to make it a lot larger! Soon I'll share another video that highlights my additions. Thanks for watching! #WearHeadphones #SoundscapeKaty Perry - Firework (2020 Remix) Warning: Flashing LightsSanjay2020-07-04 | WARNING: This video may potentially trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy.

This was gonna be another "Soundscape" video built just from the Madagascar 3 scene, but I ended up making a new arrangement for the whole song.
