Ep 289: “Beetlejuice”

September 03, 2024

We jump in the line of Tim Burton’s “Beetlejuice” and discuss:

  • Cinematography, motivating unmotivated lighting, reveals;
  • Story & Writing, rules for adventure, plot vs emotional arcs;
  • Music, double music cues, setting the tone;
  • and other such stuff and things and stuff.

You don’t know whether chimps are going to kill you or kiss you. They’re very open on some levels and much more evil in a certain way. – Tim Burton
