Tim Burton Movies

The year 9 drama class has been studying Tim Burton’s movies and his iconic trademarks that he includes in them. Students then created sets based on fairytale scenes of their choice. Some of the trademarks students focused on were the outcast, conveyor belts, snow, dinner scenes, flashbacks, Danny Elfman’s music as well as a holiday season to name just a few. Students showed a lot of creativity in their work.

"In our scene we decided to recreate the tower scene from Rapunzel. We represented Rapunzel as both the outcast and the innocent girl." - Eden

"We interpreted the tower scene and included snow, the innocent girl, the outcast,  contrasting colours, a Halloween theme all in the fantasy style." - Stephen

"Our scene was Pinocchio with a large conveyor belt, in an old toy factory, where we represented Pinocchio as the outcast." - Nitara

"Our scene focuses on a flashback of a Christmas dinner scene to show the wolf’s sad memories from his childhood." - Karina
