The most important thing to Merida is her bow and her horse and the free time that comes with them. In a nutshell, Brave is about a young woman named Merida and her struggle to find herself - to reconcile how the world sees her with how she sees herself. I’m proud of the difficult times and I’m proud of the good times, because I didn’t go through it by myself, I had a lot of good, talented people going through it with me - great warriors by my side. At the end of the day, I’m proud of the work we’ve done. We put a lot of honesty into making this film. With Brave, we’re telling a story that audiences are going to get wrapped up in. What I love about Pixar films is that we’re always trying to push the envelope and not be formulaic. Their wealth of experience was always ready at hand and helped me become a better filmmaker. We’re in very good company, and I’m surrounded by fantastic mentors. How do you feel about joining the elite group of feature film directors at Pixar Animation Studios? As I understand it, only five had had that honor before Brave. The film debuts tomorrow on Blu‐ray Combo Pack, HD Digital and On-Demand. We caught up with Andrews, who discussed the making of Brave, about a headstrong Scottish teenager who finds her place in the kingdom. The New Adventures of Jonny Quest, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Samurai Jack, and Spider-Man are some of the other projects he’s worked on. Prior to that, Andrews was a storyboard artist on several animated films, and received an Annie Award from ASIFA-Hollywood for his work on The Iron Giant.
In addition to his work on Pixar’s feature films, Andrews co-wrote and co-directed the Oscar-nominated short film One Man Band and provided his talents to Walt Disney Pictures’ John Carter as second-unit director and co-writer alongside the film’s director and Pixar colleague Andrew Stanton.īut he didn’t start his career with Pixar. He served as story supervisor on The Incredibles and Ratatouille and as a storyboard artist for Cars. He also contributed to the story of Toy Story 3. He joined Pixar Animation Studios in December 2000 and has worked on four of the studio’s feature films. Robbie Coltrane, Katherine Sarafian (producer), Mark Andrews (director), Kelly Macdonald, & Kevin McKiddīrave, one of my favorite family movies of all time, hits DVD and blu-ray this week, and director/writer Mark Andrews has created a gorgeous piece of artwork - yes, I’m calling it artwork - that’s sure to live on for generations.Īndrews is no newbie to the family movie genre.
