Character Designer - Tim Burton

Tim Burton is very well known character designer/film director with films that range from the "Corpse Bride" to "The Nightmare before Christmas". He is by far one of my favourite character designers, there is just something about his designs that make them so memorable.

They all appear to share the same physical attributes, usually not in proportion and augmented and many different ways. The main characters more than others seem to be the most normal. that's most likely because we as humans like to see what is considered normal which allows us to focus on that person easier. However I do think the fact that he creates such abnormal and strange designs is why I am so curious about his work, I also think the scenery plays a huge part in this but I'll talk about that in another blog post.
