Music is key
On board to score the film is the award-winning composer Thomas Newman, who previously worked on Pixar standouts Wall-E and Finding Nemo. “We knew music for Elemental would be important to support the story,” Ream shared. “So we were really thrilled when Thomas Newman signed on to the production. I love the music he wrote for us. He was inspiring to watch—a master of his craft—as he worked with the orchestra, and it was really a thrill to experience this process firsthand. He approached the music from a very thoughtful storytelling perspective and took great care in writing every cue.”
