Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride | Dr. Grob's Animation Review Director: Tim Burton & Mike JohnsonRelease Date: September 23, 2005Rating: ★★★★Review: The shy Victor and Victoria are forced by their unsympathetic parents to marry each other. Luckily, they actually like each other, but then Victor accidentally marries the deceased Emily who takes him to a world underground, while Victoria is forced to marry the evil lord Barkis… ‘Corpse Bride’ is a typical Tim Burton film, especially in its art direction, in its 19th century, gothic setting, in its dark humor, and in its jolly portrait of death. Also, the art of ‘Corpse Bride’ is a great improvement on ‘Nightmare before Christmas’. All this make ‘Corpse Bride’, together with that other stop-motion film ‘Wallace and Gromit: the Curse of the Were-Rabbit‘, the best animated feature of 2005/2006, surpassing all computer animated films of those years. Watch the tailer for ‘Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride’ yourself and tell me what you think: Like this: Like Loading... Related In "Aardman Studio films" Robots In "★★½"

Les meilleurs films de tous les temps history of animation Colin Levy When I was in highschool I spent like a year and a half working on a 5-minute short film. The movie was silly, starred my dad. I made it in my backyard. The unfortunate thing was, they gave me no more than a couple hours’ notice. I was thoroughly unprepared. Thelma Schoonmaker greeted me at the door. Martin Scorsese was intimidating, to say the least. The juxtaposition of scales was overpowering. A few weeks later, I got a reply — he had his assistant send me several books and DVDs (including “A Personal Journey with Martin Scorsese Through American Movies“)… and also the list of 39 Foreign Films to watch! In the following months and years I wanted to be able to write Scorsese back and be able to say, “Yes sir, I’ve gone out and watched every film on your list. I have done a piss-poor job of educating myself, and I wanted to do something about it. Six years ago, I had the chance to meet Martin Scorsese. Three intermissions, three screens, a live orchestra… I’m super excited! –Colin

The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) Artella - 3 tips for starting your animated production today... 3 tips for starting your animated production today By: Bobby Beck I was inspired to write this post after watching Pete Docter’s Oscar acceptance speech for Inside Out. Having had the privilege of working with Pete as an animator on, Monster’s Inc. This brings me to today’s topic… I’m often asked, “If I want to do my own animated production where do I start?” 1. It’s common to think you have to have the perfect story figured out all by yourself before you start your production. With a simple pitch (think Kickstarter pitch video) and a concept image, you have the pieces you need to start engaging a core team of artists and, before you know it, you’re already on your way. When starting a project, here are some of the positions I look to fill; storyboard artist, visual development artist, previs animator, animator (not that they will be animating right away, but they will bring good ideas to the table). 2. Don’t make this mistake. 3 .

DESISTFILM’S TOP 50 FILMS OF ALL TIME « desistfilm This entry was posted on October 9th, 2012 Sans Soleil To make a list about the best films of all time is in some cases, an exhumation process: Hidden films, which we have to give a breath of life. In other cases, is a process of vindicating the old glories under the guilty or aesthetic pleasure. desistfilm staff: Mónica Delgado, José Sarmiento Hinojosa, Catherine Beed, Vassilis Economou, John A.
