Kris Bowers and the Music of The Wild Robot | #DolbyCreatorTalks
1,446Academy Award® -nominated composer Kris Bowers joins guest host Jon Burlingame to discuss his stunning orchestral score for "The Wild Robot," directed by Chris Sanders. The composer dives deep into how he crafted the film’s sonic landscape, incorporating orchestral textures, electronic elements, and unique percussive sounds. He also shares insights into his collaboration with director Chris Sanders and how becoming a parent influenced his emotional approach to crafting the film’s original score.
“Chris [Sanders] talked about the role that music was going to need to play in this film... He already knew there were going to be these long stretches where we would have little to no dialogue. And he was trusting that music could help tell the story in those moments… Because for him, the idea of kindness as a survival technique, that was very, very key to the story... Really this idea of music needing to have this vulnerability, this warmth, clear melodic statements, and then also having the ability to go from small intimate moments to really big, huge action sequences.” —Kris Bowers, Composer, "The Wild Robot"
