Ep455 - Alex Mandel, Animator & Composer 'The Inventor', 'Brave' & 'East Side Sushi'

Alex Mandel began his career as a composer at Pixar by providing the score for the Ratatouille DVD short "Your Friend the Rat" and was later selected by Pixar creatives to write two songs for Brave: "Touch the Sky" and "Into the Open Air" - which became global hits. His work spans across film (East Side Sushi); streaming (Super Giant Robot Brothers); and radio (NPR's Snap Judgment LIVE, where he performed with The Roots' MC Black Thought). Recently, he composed the score for The Inventor in addition to nine songs for the film performed by voice cast members Marion Cotillard, Daisy Ridley, Matt Berry, and Stephen Fry. The imaginative and family-friendly feature about the life of Leonardo da Vinci is written and directed by Oscar® nominee Jim Capobianco (screenwriter of Ratatouille) and co-directed by Pierre-Luc Granjon.
