Brad Bird

I'm choosing to emulate Brad Bird, the director of "The Incredibles," "Ratatouille," "The Iron Giant" and "Up,"; an influential director in the animated children and family genre. His work is characterized by his exaggerated and absurd scenarios with characters who otherwise might have been mundane, personified objects or animal and fantastical settings. Ratatouille, The Iron Giant and Up both explore new and budding friendships with two unlikely people (or animals, or robots). All of the movies include "mini-movies" in them, like TV broadcasts or propaganda. It's Bird's way of setting up the location and time of the film. Finally, his movies usually include a character who has been "wronged" who is trying to gain back their honor, dignity, respect etc.
