I definitely love this course! The instructor cares everyone. Attending their class is such a pleasure. They believe students don't have to pay for extra material since we enrolled in this class and this university. They reply email on Sunday night and respond to my request of recording the lectures although they didn't plan to because of unstable internet. They relieve any worry you have. You can take this course with any level of musical knowledge. The content of the course is super interesting. It introduces music in animated films in Hollywood, Japan, and other parts of the world. There is only one midterm and a short final paper which are designed not to destroy anyone's confidence or curiosity. I attended the discussion at midnight, so I could barely speak. It's kind of the TA, Moore, didn't force anyone to speak. But he and the classmates in the discussion group are so funny and just listening their thoughts are inspiring for me. I was moved by the inclusiveness and freedom shown by this course. Taking this course is a precious experience for me. I would recommend it to anyone interested in film or music.
