Emotion, storytelling and uniqueness are the driving forces behind Mentzer’s creative vision, whether composing to help define the narrative and characters in film, TV or theatre; writing songs for artists to perform in their own voice; or mixing a record to make it compelling to the audience. His artistic approach is to identify the unique needs of each project with the common goal to move people by creating depth of field — bringing the emotional crux into focus while generating interest and curiosity in what lies in the background. Mentzer has also composed branding music for Chase Bank, Chevrolet, Discovery+, Ford, Google, Government of Canada, Hyundai, Jim Beam, Kia, Olay, Ontario Lottery Group, Peroni Italia, Robinhood, Rogers Unison, Samsung, Shaw Cable, Smucker’s, Target, Telus, Toyota, U.S Customs and Border Protection and more.
