Mark Orton (Nebraska, The Good Girl, My Old Lady) has recently scored the upcoming Pixar Animation short Loop. The film is written and directed by Erica Milsom and follows a non-verbal, autistic girl and a chatty boy who are partnered on a canoeing trip and must both learn how the other experiences the world. Michael Warch is producing the project, which is one of three new shorts from Pixar’s SparkShorts series (the others being Wind, scored by Andrew Jimenez, and Float, scored by Barney Jones).
Loop will premiere on Disney+ this November.
Orton’s other upcoming projects also include Herman Jimenez’s Elsewhere, as well as the indie drama Here Awhile co-written and directed by Tim True and starring Anna Camp, Steven Strait and Joe Lo Truglio and Christopher Munch’s The 11th Green starring Campbell Scott.
