My Favorite Director

My Favorite Director

While there’re many Directors who I am willing to give as my overall favourite director there is one that in my opinion has shone through them all. With films such as Planet of the Apes, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Alice in Wonderland tucked safely under his belt, you can be rest assured that he will be remaining at my top spot despite having some stiff competition from the likes of Ron Howard (The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons) and Peter Jackson (Lord of the rings and Hobbit), some of the film industries greats. But as I say my top spot has been claimed by Mr. Tim Burton.

One of the reasons that I believe that he has been so successful is because he understands how to put together a film. He was interested in film from a young age; he loved to spend time in his garden making short films with his friends, probably his most famous childhood film was “Stalk of the Celery Monster” witch he produced and stared in at the age of 13 in the shed at the bottom of his garden.

Tim has directed some of my all-time favourite films to watch. Personally I believe that his stop motion films are the best as no one else is performing in his particular style, Nick Park (director of Wallace and Grommet) is another great animator but his style is a little too … cushy.

If I do a horror themed film then I will make sure that I include elements of Tim Burton’s work in my film as I believe it gives a great effect to the film
