Alice Mitchell Joins Absolute as Lead Compositor

Absolute have welcomed lead compositor, Alice Mitchell, to their film and TV team. Alice joins following 20+ years at DNEG, where she worked on films including Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Captain America, Mission Impossible – Fallout, The Hunger Games – Part 2 and The Matrix Resurrections. 

Originally scouted at her degree show by The Magic Camera Company, Alice quickly learnt the ropes in her debut role, before joining DNEG in 2002. Over the past two decades, she has honed her craft compositing not only on major feature films, but also prominent TV series’. Recent projects include Prime Video’s Snow White and the Huntsman and Les Misérables, as well as Disney+’s Avengers: Infinity War and Super/Natural.  

Avid BAFTA member Alice has worked with noted talent such as Kenneth Branagh and Christopher Nolan, with her work gaining success at legendary award shows. Steve Barron’s Dreamkeeper took home an Emmy, whilst Christopher Nolan’s Inception, on which she worked across some big shots, scored an Oscar, a BAFTA and a VES award for best VFX.  

Of her new role, Alice comments, “Absolute’s film & TV team have been working on some really exciting projects recently. On top of this, they seem like such a lovely company with a great balance and a family feel. I love that it’s a dog-friendly office, too! I can’t wait to get stuck in.” 

Danny Duke, Absolute’s head of film and TV, adds, “I’m super excited to welcome Alice to the team as we continue to work across more and more ambitious shows. Her talent and expertise will prosper an immediate impact on our current projects; but best of all, she feels like one of the family straight away! I look forward to working with her in developing workflows and growing the team even further.”
