00:00If our last film was about connecting with the past, this film is about
00:04connecting with the future. So we meet Moana, she is journeying further and
00:08further out searching different islands to try to figure out if there are more
00:12people than just those on Motunui. And this film is about connecting all of the
00:18people from across the Pacific. We meet new villains, all new characters, all new
00:24songs. We also have the people that we know and love, Moana, Grandma Tala, the
00:28Kakamora are back and then Heihei and Pua are on the boat this time. You know
00:33it's really about like what the emotional journey of the characters is
00:37because that's where all of the songs come in and it's such an important part
00:41of what we do at Disney Animation and Musical Storytelling. It allows you to
00:44really have a window inside of what the characters thinking and feeling because
00:48they can sing about it, right? So I think the the songs sort of naturally start to
00:53organically land where they're supposed to be and when there's a big change
00:57that's happening or something you know like in the song Beyond when Moana is
01:00now faced with leaving and now has her little sister there it really it creates
01:04that emotional like moment for her to actually have that so much emotion built
01:10up inside that it has to come out in a song so that's really how they come
01:13about. It takes a long time to make sure that they're crafted for them to start
01:17in the right way but it it really is all about the emotional journey of the
01:21characters. I have seen quite a few people dress up in costume and that
01:26feels really special to me. I am still looking for an adult sized costume that
01:31won't put me back like $300 on Etsy. I've looked so I also hope to become a
01:37Moana bee one day. That's literally a dream of mine to dress up as Moana for
01:41Halloween and I haven't found a costume that fits. I know I have to make it
01:44myself which is fine. I'm just not a DIY girly. I think it's just a reflection of
01:50the fact that like we love Moana so much. Plus she is an iconic heroine like she
01:56deserves some fans. Yeah so much fun to create those characters right? The Moana
02:00Swifties. Yeah. The Swifties of the Moana universe. Played by Dwayne Johnson's
02:05daughters. Does it get much better than that? Yeah. You know when we were when we
02:16were coming up with those characters they were so much fun and I remember we
02:19all looked at each other like do you think do you think we could ask him if
02:22they do it and I'm so glad that we did because we had this amazing day with
02:27Dwayne, his daughters, his mom who also has a cameo in the film all in the
02:30studio together and it was really fun to watch him work with his daughters. They are a
02:37tough crowd. Yeah. You know he was always game for to come in honestly. He really
02:42loves this character and obviously speaking about his daughters they love
02:45it as well too so you know working with him is an incredible gift. He comes in
02:50super prepared and he's ready to jump in. As soon as he steps up to that
02:55mic he is Maui and he gives us incredible work. You know it's actually
02:58really hard to find an actor whose voice work can actually translate to animation
03:03as well as his does but somehow his charisma comes through his voice so he
03:06yeah he came prepared and having him sing a new song was also just so much
03:11fun. Two new songs. Two new songs yes.
