[the films of] Tim Burton

Kees van Dijkhuizen wrote me to inform me of his latest editing effort. Kees writes,

“Tim Burton is one of those filmmakers who tells stories unlike anyone else. Whether it’s about an alien invasion, the worst director of all time or a bride risen from the dead, Burton’s films are filled with unique and iconic characters and visuals that make his films unforgettable. This tenth episode of [the films of] arrives just in time for Hallowe’en to celebrate Burton’s fourteen feature films.”

Two HD versions are available: a SFW version on YouTube, and a NSFW on Vimeo. Both are edmbedded below:

Be sure to stop by Kees’ blog for a breakdown of the video.

Tribute To Steven Spielberg

As part of the DGA’s 75th Anniversary, DGA Lifetime Achievement Award recipient and three-time DGA Award winner, Steven Spielberg, was celebrated on June 11, 2011. Featuring a lively and engaging panel discussion with fellow visionary directors J.J. Abrams (Super8) and James Cameron (Avatar), and moderated by 75th Anniversary Committee Chair Michael Apted, this “Game-Changer” event drew a maximum capacity crowd at the DGA Theater in Los Angeles and provided a deeply intimate, highly engaging reflection on one of the most influential and beloved filmmakers of all time.

The panel is almost 2 hours of gold :D Click the image to head to the site, then the first video to watch the entire panel.
