“I had never really done something that was more of a horror film, and it’s funny, because those are kinds of movies that I like probably more than any other genre” -Tim Burton

Biography Timothy William Burton began drawing at an early age. He later attended the California Institute for the Arts. His early career was run by unbelievably good luck. As soon as he graduated from college he was signed by Disney as an animator. His first film was a six minute tribute to “Vincent” even though he had worked on “The Fox and the Hound” before that. He continued animating until he was signed to direct “PeeWee Herman’s Big Adventure”. It became his first motion picture. Burton |
| later went on to direct such films as “Beetle Juice” and both of the “Batman’s”. One of his crowning moments came when he directed “Edward Scissorhands”. This Burton classic is the first movie where Tim Burton established ties with the amazing actor Johnny Depp. Burton animated the infamous Nightmare before Christmas then later returned to Johnny Depp for the film “Ed Wood”. Over the years Tim Burton has created some of the most entertaining films of our time. Perhaps his defining moment came when he created his two newest films “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” or “Corpse Bride” (both featured below). There is no doubt that he is one of the greatest film-makers ever as voted 49th by “Entertainment Weekly”. |
