Director Tim Burton was raised in suburban Burbank, but with 28 films under his belt, he’s created a world of his own. From Edward Scissorhands to Charlie And The Chocolate Factory to his latest film, Frankenweenie, Burton infuses his work with both childhood memories and a dark edge of the macabre.

Frankenweenie is his second to be nominated for an Academy Award (Best Animated Feature Film), and he’s in studio to talk about his new film, his filmmaking process, and his passion for the handmade feel of stop-motion film.
