The imagination of has produced ghosts and ghouls, Martians, monsters and misfits 香蕉视频直播 all on display at an exhibition that is opening in London just in time for Halloween.

But you know what really scares him? Artificial intelligence.

Burton said Wednesday that seeing a website that had used AI to blend his drawings with Disney characters 香蕉视频直播渞eally disturbed me.香蕉视频直播

香蕉视频直播淚t wasn香蕉视频直播檛 an intellectual thought 香蕉视频直播 it was just an internal, visceral feeling,香蕉视频直播 Burton told reporters during a preview of 香蕉视频直播淭he World of Tim Burton香蕉视频直播 exhibition at London香蕉视频直播檚 Design Museum. 香蕉视频直播淚 looked at those things and I thought, 香蕉视频直播楽ome of these are pretty good.香蕉视频直播 香蕉视频直播 (But) it gave me a weird sort of scary feeling inside.香蕉视频直播

Burton said he thinks AI is unstoppable, because 香蕉视频直播渙nce you can do it, people will do it.香蕉视频直播 But he scoffed when asked if he香蕉视频直播檇 use the technology in this work.

香蕉视频直播淭o take over the world?香蕉视频直播 he laughed.

The exhibition reveals Burton to be an analogue artist, who started off as a child in the 1960s experimenting with paints and colored pencils in his suburban Californian home.

香蕉视频直播淚 wasn香蕉视频直播檛, early on, a very verbal person,香蕉视频直播 Burton said. 香蕉视频直播淒rawing was a way of expressing myself.香蕉视频直播

Decades later, after films including 香蕉视频直播淓dward Scissorhands,香蕉视频直播 香蕉视频直播淏atman,香蕉视频直播 香蕉视频直播淭he Nightmare Before Christmas香蕉视频直播 and 香蕉视频直播淏eetlejuice,香蕉视频直播 his ideas still begin with drawing. The exhibition includes 600 items from movie studio collections and Burton香蕉视频直播檚 personal archive, and traces those ideas as they advance from sketches through collaboration with set, production and costume designers on the way to the big screen.

London is the exhibition香蕉视频直播檚 final stop on a decade-long tour of 14 cities in 11 countries. It has been reconfigured and expanded with 90 new objects for its run in the British capital, where Burton has lived for a quarter century.

The show includes early drawings and oddities, including a competition-winning 香蕉视频直播渃rush litter香蕉视频直播 sign a teenage Burton designed for Burbank garbage trucks. There香蕉视频直播檚 also a recreation of Burton香蕉视频直播檚 studio, down to the trays of paints and 香蕉视频直播淐urse of Frankenstein香蕉视频直播 mug full of pencils.

Alongside hundreds of drawings, there are props, puppets, set designs and iconic costumes, including Johnny Depp香蕉视频直播檚 香蕉视频直播淓dward Scissorhands香蕉视频直播 talons and the black latex Catwoman costume worn by Michelle Pfeiffer in 香蕉视频直播淏atman Returns.香蕉视频直播

香蕉视频直播淲e had very generous access to Tim香蕉视频直播檚 archive in London, stuffed full of thousands of drawings, storyboards from stop-motion films, sketches, character notes, poems,香蕉视频直播 said exhibition curator Maria McLintock. 香蕉视频直播淎nd how to synthesize such a wide ranging and meandering career within one exhibition was a fun challenge 香蕉视频直播 but definitely a challenge.香蕉视频直播

Seeing it has not been a wholly fun experience for Burton, who said he香蕉视频直播檚 unable to look too closely at the items on display.

香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 like seeing your dirty laundry put on the walls,香蕉视频直播 he said. 香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 quite amazing. It香蕉视频直播檚 a bit overwhelming.香蕉视频直播

Burton, whose long-awaited horror-comedy sequel opened at the Venice Film Festival in August, is currently filming the second series of Netflix香蕉视频直播 Addams Family-themed series 香蕉视频直播淲ednesday.香蕉视频直播

These days he is a major Hollywood director whose American gothic style has spawned an adjective 香蕉视频直播 香蕉视频直播淏urtoneqsue.香蕉视频直播 But he still feels like an outsider.

香蕉视频直播淥nce you feel that way, it never leaves you,香蕉视频直播 he said.

香蕉视频直播淓ach film I did was a struggle,香蕉视频直播 he added, noting that early films like 香蕉视频直播淧ee-wee香蕉视频直播檚 Big Adventure香蕉视频直播 from 1985 and 香蕉视频直播淏eetlejuice香蕉视频直播 in 1988 received some negative reviews. 香蕉视频直播淚t seems like it was a pleasant, fine, easy journey, but each one leaves its emotional scars.香蕉视频直播

McLintock said Burton 香蕉视频直播渋s a deeply emotional filmmaker.香蕉视频直播

香蕉视频直播淚 think that香蕉视频直播檚 what drew me to his films as a child,香蕉视频直播 she said. 香蕉视频直播淗e really celebrates the misunderstood outcast, the benevolent monster. So it香蕉视频直播檚 been quite a weird but fun experience spending so much time in his brain and his creative process.

香蕉视频直播淗is films are often called dark,香蕉视频直播 she added. 香蕉视频直播淚 don香蕉视频直播檛 agree with that. And if they are dark, there香蕉视频直播檚 a very much a kind of hope in the darkness. You always want to hang out in the darkness in his films.香蕉视频直播
