Academy Award winner Kris Bowers up for another Oscar, celebrating music in a different category
Briefly

Kris Bowers is once again nominated for an Oscar, this time for composing the original score for the animated film, "The Wild Robot." Last year, he won an Oscar for co-directing the documentary short "The Last Repair Shop," emphasizing the importance of music in schools. Bowers expressed that being nominated holds significant personal meaning, as it reflects recognition by peers he admires. As the film has minimal dialogue, the score is deemed its emotional core, illustrating Bowers' profound connection to his craft, despite his self-described emotional reserve outside of music.
I feel like I'm a method composer in a way. I have to feel something for me to write the music. It's the way that I know something is right.
This year, Bowers is nominated for composing the original score for the animated film, "The Wild Robot," which Director Chris Sanders called the heart and soul of the film.
