Alright, apologies again for my delay in commenting!

Right off the bat, I want to point out that while I am a fan of Burton's works I never knew his professional history! This video was a treat to watch for that alone! One thing that REALLY stood out to me was the number of clips/photos of Tim Burton you were able to use in comparison to previous videos on individuals at Disney. Additionally, the depth you were able to go into regarding his time at Disney was really impressive! You broke everything down neatly and even tied in people who will no doubt be the subject of future videos!

Back to the clips used, I really appreciated how you edited together pictures of the various animators discussed and their works. It was clean and did a great job showing the audience exactly who you were talking about through their most famous works! And your incorporation of Burton's works wherever possible helped visualize the difference between his style and that which Disney was pushing for!

Your introduction to Cal Arts was very well done, too! It wasn't too long and you explained it's history with Disney in a neat and concise way! You also have maintained that cadence you had from the previous video and appear to be mastering it! Not too cheery, not too cynical, the perfect mix!

Overall, great job on this! Your editing is REALLY clean now and the clip choice is great! Keep it up, man!

Tim Burton really likes to beat himself up over his work on 'The Fox & The Hound'. Of all the times I've seen that movie, I've still never seen these "roadkill foxes" he famously speaks of, be they in the form of Vixey or any background character.

6:23 - I love what sounds like a clunky edit as the piano arrangement for 'Hansel & Gretel' is brought into the soundtrack, but... what can you do? This abrupt beginning to the piece is (as far as anyone knows) all that exists of it. lol

I'm sorry, Mr. Burton, that your dream job at Disney wasn't what it was cracked up to be. But the important thing is you've BEEN there, and you learned from it, which is a lot more than what MOST of us can say about ourselves. And your leaving Disney certainly went on to greater things. Thank you for everything you've given us.

The idea for "Nightmare Before Christmas" originated when Burton was still working for Disney. Once Burton had made some very successful films, Burton made the film for Disney, because they held the rights to the idea. However, Disney still wasn't convinced it should be released as a Disney film, so it was released as a "Touchstone" film.

That’s crazy to hear how The Black Cauldron did so poorly. It’s one of my personal favs.

It would be interesting to see The Black Cauldron as Tim Burton had envisioned it. Working on that film was a low point in so many animators' careers.

l personaly didnt get this MF's chance of 1 /100 % in my whole life. They forced to make a man out of nothing in Disney years after years. Later he bacame a big director but if you force and give chances a donkey so much it can sing like Elvis too.
