From Inspiration to Creation: Unveiling Boris’ Character Journey with Gunnar Madsen

We’re excited to bring you another special episode of “Unlocking The Golden Cage” as we sit down with Gunnar Madsen – a composer, writer, sound designer, animator, and singer. Join us as we explore the deep themes of friendship, artistic ambition, and the creative process through the lens of our long-time friendship.

Gunnar Madsen, inspiration behind the beloved character Boris in our story, has been a confidant and creative partner of mine for years. Together, we reflect on our musical ambitions in school and how we fed off of one another’s ideas to drive us towards more innovative and exciting creative projects. We discuss how this strong bond grew into a truly collaborative relationship, and how we have always been mutually supportive of one another’s work.

This episode offers a unique opportunity to explore the complex layers of friendship, artistic ambition, and the resilience required to navigate through moments of darkness.
