Tim Burton & Johnny Depp Interview - Alice In Wonderland

Independent Study


  • Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas 
  • Edward ScissorHands
  • Alice In Wonderland
  • One of these films are likely to be replaced with a Terry Gilliam film.

For my independent study I will be focusing on three films produced by Tim Burton. I have chosen these three films due to the way colour is used in each film, causing the film to become darker and therefore more interesting. Tim Burtons obscure way of filming entices me with every film he releases. I wish to study the ways colour has been used to create atmosphere and set the mood within the film. Also I will research the techniques used to create the film including stop motion animation, the way everything looks, allowing me to see and write about a variety of features Tim Burton has used, keeping with his style of films within Dark Fantasy genres.
