Tim Burton's a Genius!

I've just seen the movie Frankenweenie and I loved it so I highly recommend it to anyone. Don't let the fact that it's a black and white film put you off, it is funny, sweet, sad and just lovely. It's also full of references to the first Frankenstein films with Boris Karloff as The Monster, great films as well.
So I googled some and found out that Frankenweenie is actually a remake of a short film Tim Burton made in 1984. It is on youtube (dubbed in Spanish and the original) so check it out but not until you see the full length movie!
Tim Burton has used the stop motion technique in many of his films (both long and short). This animation technique makes a physically manipulated object appear to move on its own.
It is the technique used in the following 1982 short (under 6 minutes!) by Tim Burton.
The film is called Vincent and it is a beautiful tribute to Vincent Price, who narrates it. He was an American actor best known for his distinctive voice and his roles in horror films, including many Edgar Allan Poe adaptations.
Enjoy!
