<P> The animation team for The Prince of Egypt, including 350 artists from 34 different nations, was primarily recruited both from Walt Disney Feature Animation, which had fallen under Katzenberg's auspices while at The Walt Disney Company, and from Amblimation, a defunct division of Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment . As at Disney's, character animators were grouped into teams by character: for example, Kristof Serrand, as the supervising animator of Older Moses, set the acting style of the character and assigned scenes to his team . Consideration was given to properly depicting the ethnicities of the ancient Egyptians, Hebrews, and Nubians seen in the film . </P> <P> There are 1,192 scenes in the film, and 1,180 contain work done by the special effects department, which animates everything in an animated scene which is not a character: blowing wind, dust, rainwater, shadows, etc . A blend of traditional animation and computer - generated imagery was used in the depictions of the ten plagues of Egypt and the parting of the Red Sea . The animated characters were digitally inked and painted using Cambridge Systems' Animo software system (now merged with Toon Boom), and the compositing of the 2D and 3D elements was done using the "Exposure Tool", a digital solution developed for DreamWorks by Silicon Graphics . </P> <P> The task of creating God's voice was given to Lon Bender and the team working with the film's music composer, Hans Zimmer . "The challenge with that voice was to try to evolve it into something that had not been heard before," says Bender . "We did a lot of research into the voices that had been used for past Hollywood movies as well as for radio shows, and we were trying to create something that had never been previously heard not only from a casting standpoint but from a voice manipulation standpoint as well . The solution was to use the voice of actor Val Kilmer to suggest the kind of voice we hear inside our own heads in our everyday lives, as opposed to the larger than life tones with which God has been endowed in prior cinematic incarnations ." </P> <P> Composer and lyricist Stephen Schwartz began working on writing songs for the film from the beginning of the film's production . As the story evolved, he continued to write songs that would serve both to entertain and help move the story along . Composer Hans Zimmer arranged and produced the songs and then eventually wrote the film's score . The film's score was recorded entirely in London, England . </P>
