Tim Burton would be considered as an auteur because his films
all have a similar aspect to them. He is known for his dark, gothic, macabre,
and quirky horror and fantasy films.








Tim Burton
says that he was influenced by the works of such
childhood heroes as Dr. Seuss and Roald
Dahl.
As a student in CalArts, Burton made the shorts Stalk
of the Celery Monster and King
and Octopus. He graduated in 1979. Stalk of the
Celery Monster attracted the attention of Walt Disney Productions' animation department, which offered Burton an animator's apprenticeship at
the studio. He worked as an
animator, storyboard artist and concept
artist on films such as The Fox and the Hound (1981), The
Black Cauldron and Tron.[7] However,
Burton's personal style clashed with Disney's standards, and he longed to work
on solo projects.
Tim Burton uses the same types of colours for all of his films. He uses
a lot of dark colours such as blacks, greys, reds, and other dull colours. However,
he does use brighter colours but darker colours are one of his signature things.
Charlie and the chocolate factory:
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) is an adaptation of the book of the
same name by Roald
Dahl. Starring Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka, Freddie
Highmore as Charlie
Bucket and Helena
Bonham Carter as Mrs. Bucket, the film generally took a more faithful
approach to the source material than the 1971 adaptation, Willy
Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, although some liberties were taken, such
as adding Wonka's issue with his father (played by Christopher Lee). ‘Charlie
and the Chocolate Factory’ was later nominated for the Academy Award for Best Costume Design. The film made over $207 million domestically.
Filming proved difficult as Burton, Depp, and Danny Elfman had to work on this
and Burton's Corpse Bride at the same time.
This film might be one of the only films that
he has done with the most colours, even though there is a section when he has
flashbacks to his childhood and those scenes are in grey dull tonal colours.
