This week we are taking our inspiration from my all time favorite movie, Big Fish. This is one of Tim Burton's most uplifting and visually appealing films (in my opinion). It also has the quirkiness and darkness that you would expect. There are many memorable characters, moments and production design elements to draw inspiration from. I am excited to give it a go!
Here are some lovely film stills to get you started:

That was my father's final joke, I guess. The man tells his stories so
many times that he becomes the stories. They live on after him. And in
that way, he becomes immortal.~ Will Bloom
