(With a bit of sarcasm) (Especially in the title)
Tim Burton is an american film writer, as well as a producer, artist, writer and animator. He has worked with Johnny Depp (a famous actor) in various films. His film styles are known to be dark, gothic, eccentric, and rather quirky. As shown in Charlie and the Chocolate factory, The nightmare before christmas, The big fish, and Edward scissorhands.

To compare scenes, Burton could have done this a lot differently. It could have ended with a gradual boom. Then it could have transitioned back to the halloween town to switch between scenes
