The first thing that I notice when I think of Tim Burton as a director is that he has to be brilliant on the relationships he has with his actors as he is renowned for working with Johnny Depp in most of his films. For an actor to be able to work with a director on numerous films he must create a brilliant working atmosphere.
He also puts his signature stamp onto the films that he directs, with his dark and melancholy style featuring within every film. Another reason why I think Tim Burton is such a great director is because he is not afraid to use all his skills - his artistic side is another thing that Burton is great at and putting this into his films is
something that makes them so great.
You can see from these images that the drawings from Burton's art book (The Art of Tim Burton) have a similar style to the animation he created - The Nightmare Before Christmas
Burton attended the California Institute of Arts and I believe it is his artistic eye that has worked well in his creating such great films, he uses his eye to perfect composition and his mind without barriers to create the characters and the story line. Abstract story lines such as Beetle Juice and Edward Scissorhands are some of his greatest -
It is good to know why famous directors are great at what they do, this helps me in knowing how I can achieve my role.
