Get to know the emotions of ‘Inside Out’ — VIDEO

“Inside Out,” the latest animated adventure from Disney/Pixar, focuses on the emotions that govern 11-year-old Riley Anderson’s behavior via the knobs, buttons and levers on a control panel in that part of her brain referred to as Headquarters.

When Riley is born, there’s only Joy (Amy Poehler), a yellow, pixie-ish bundle of positivity.

She’s quickly joined by Sadness (“The Office’s” Phyllis Smith), a blue blob of despair who mopes about as though she’s always on the lookout for an oven to stick her head inside.

Fear (Bill Hader), a purple, nervous nerd, shows up a few years later to keep Riley safe.

Disgust (Mindy Kaling), a fashionable green diva, arrives the first time Riley’s parents offer her broccoli.

And Anger (Lewis Black), a fiery, red, hot head, shows up moments later when she’s threatened with missing dessert if she doesn’t eat that broccoli.

But rather than read more about them, let the actors introduce you to the emotions they portray:
