Wes Anderson Biography
Who is Wes Anderson?
Wes Anderson grew up in Houston, Texas. He is the middle child of three boys. His parents divorced when he was eight years old.
He attended St. James Preparatory high school before he moved to Austin, where he attended the University of Texas and graduated with a degree in philosophy.
He made a short film, Bottle Rocket, which screened at Sundance in 1994, where it received little recognition by anyone other than producer Polly Platt. She later showed the film to Jim Brooks, and from there...

What is the Wes Anderson Style?
Wes Anderson’s style can be summed up as this:
Direct-directing.
Wes Anderson is the most direct director in popular cinema today, but his films are simultaneously idiosyncratic and relentlessly detailed.
Laced throughout his films are nuanced production design elements and visual gags, but executed in such a deliberate manner that the viewer always 'catches' these little easter eggs that inform our mood.
His audience:
- Knows what he wants them to know.
- Sees what he wants them to see.
- Feels what he wants them to feel.
The Wes Anderson aesthetic is much more deliberate. It seems simple, but it's actually complex. The viewer gets to enjoy a sophisticated film that spoon-feeds information. His stories are undeniably fun, and he is one of the only working directors who can pull off massive tonal shifts.
Other directors will keep you in suspense by holding information back, and strategically distributing details when advantageous. The overall Wes Anderson aesthetic is rather charming, and this includes his blocking and staging, writing, and performances. His characters are often gracious, have respect for one another, and cherish past memories.
This is a scene where Zero (F. Murray Abraham) has dinner with the Young Writer (Jude Law). There is a love for tradition, and pride in one's craft, but something else in the scene is quite remarkable.
Let's look at a shot list from The Grand Budapest Hotel:
Wes Anderson Shot List • Made in StudioBinder
The scene has the trademark Wes Anderson symmetry and profile shots, with actors and props promptly entering and exiting the frame. Each action is cued by another action, much like the overall philosophy of the concierge and hotel staff. This extends to the dialogue as well.
There is a moment where M. Jean passes by in the background.
The Young Writer turns, just as he walks by, directing our eyes to the motion. Later in the scene, Zero mentions M. Jean's predecessor (M. Gustave) and as he does, we see M. Jean literally backtrack into the corner of the frame, just for a moment.
M. Jean backtrack in The Grand Budapest Hotel
It's subtle, and yet it's a great example of direct-directing. Its fast, and light, but strong and intentional. You might say, aggressively charming.
See if you notice any examples of direct-directing in these scenes:
Interview with Zero - The Grand Budapest Hotel
Wes Anderson willingly hands over information in a succinct manner. He doesn't try to trick you with his plot, and he has no intention of pulling the rug out from under you.
He is more interested in being clear than anything else.
Here is a great example of a video that mimics the Wes Anderson Style. Leave it to the team behind Family Guy to nail everything Andersonian.
Wes Anderson Style — Family Guy Style
The Wes Anderson style is Wes Anderson himself. A hard working, thoughtful human who is focused on his imagination. His visuals an extension of his own psychology. Anderson is those clothes, those Zissou Adidas, those record players...those memories.
Rather than portray himself predominantly through his characters, he finds a more sophisticated way to express his unique personality through his visuals.
This is where many other directors fall short with their auteurist spirit. Discerning film fans don’t get the feeling that Tarantino, Spielberg, or Nolan are, they themselves, visual representations of their films...
But you do get that feeling when you look at Wes Anderson.
You don’t have to like Wes Anderson films to appreciate the way he moves the camera, composes shots, and directs the actors. He makes robust, thoughtful films that use every department to the fullest degree.
Each of his more recent films could be described as a visually spectacular tour de force. This is because he pays “relentless attention to detail.” He directs your attention to what he wants, when he wants, and he is a master at making each image count through the use of cinema.
How Anderson Directs a Movie • Subscribe on YouTube
Wes Anderson films are predominantly made from scratch.
He can draw inspiration from books or other films, but he writes his own stories. His films hold a lot of information, feeling, and observation within a relatively simple narrative that is built by the artist that will eventually direct the picture.
Other elements of his films seem to be made from scratch as well, like his costumes and production design. While other filmmakers use real life locations or designs to create a cohesive world, Anderson seems to build his outright.
Even if he is using an established location, you get the feeling that the whole place was built for the film, and that is not done by accident.
You rarely see product placement — at least not for a real product or brand — or anything else that compromises the integrity of the film. Nothing violates the unique world of Anderson's personal creation — except maybe Adidas.

Who influenced Wes Anderson?
Wes Anderson’s influences include Roman Polanski, Steven Spielberg, Alfred Hitchcock, Martin Scorsese, Waris Hussein, Ernst Lubitsch, Peter Bogdanovich, and French New Wave directors like François Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard.
What's our source for that information? Just ask Wes:
I think the way I think about shooting scenes and staging scenes is influenced very much by Roman Polanski and by his films and the way he does that, which is very particular.
— Wes Anderson
Also, watch his films closely.
There is a moment in The Grand Budapest Hotel that is an unabashed homage to a scene in the Alfred Hitchcock film Torn Curtain, as explained here by the Grand Budapest production designer Adam Stockhausen.
If you watch Torn Curtain and start where he’s walking out of the hotel and the women are scrubbing the floor, and Jeff Goldblum walking down the stairs with the women scrubbing the floor in Grand Budapest, it follows pretty exactly. It’s the most direct homage we’ve done. It’s exciting because you have this starting point that you then get to work into your locations and figure out how to match up the pieces.
— Adam Stockhausen
This shows you just how much Anderson borrows from past filmmakers, and how he has a desire to retain some of those visuals and feeling he connected to as a young man.

Lessons of the Wes Anderson style
The Wes Anderson film style is his own personal style, and he has gone to great lengths to cultivate a unique approach to cinema.
It is an amalgamation of books, films, experiences, and games that he created both as a child, and continues to create as an adult. Learning from Anderson is one of the most important things you can do as a filmmaker. Replicating his style is one of the more questionable things you can do as a filmmaker. If you let Wes Anderson influence you too much, you'll always be compared to him.
Even Wes Anderson and Quentin Tarantino knew that while they loved Godard, they couldn’t just rip off everything that made him unique. They studied why his style worked, and then blended it with all the other useful observations they made about film.
A filmmaker's visual style can, and almost always does, emulate those who have come before. But memorable filmmakers develop their own trademark techniques and styles to become an auteur.

Wes Anderson felt that Bill Murray accepted his role in Rushmore because Anderson held his own during a discussion of the Kurosawa film, Red Beard.
Anderson had not seen the film, but he was confident enough in his artistic vision that one of the biggest movie stars in the world decided to come on as a supporting role after reading the script and having a phone conversation.
It was because Anderson had developed his own style, his own vision, and put it down on the page in a way that Murray says, he had never seen before in his long career as an actor. He had yet to make any of his famous stylized films with the pastel color palette or Adrien Brody, but Murray said “yes” to the young indie director from Austin.

Wes Anderson Stories
THE WORLD AND THE CHARACTERS
WES ANDERSON Film STORIES
Wes Anderson & Peter Pan Syndrome
Wes Anderson tells stories from the perspective of a 12-year-old boy. More specifically, he tells stories from his perspective as a 12-year-old. His films capture the essence of a board game or story book, and the world he builds in each film resembles a snapshot from his childhood.
Anderson's color palettes, costumes, set design, and technology all seem to create a world frozen in time somewhere in the early 1980s.
Audiences love Wes Anderson films for a multitude of reasons, some of which could be deemed "masculine." There is an undeniable sense that his films often are told from the perspective of a young man.
When you're 11 or 12 years old, you can get so swept up in a book that you start to believe that the fantasy is reality. I think when you have a giant crush when you're in fifth grade, it becomes your whole world. It's like being underwater; everything is different.
— Wes Anderson
His films aren’t particularly “macho” when compared to high octane thrillers or shoot-em-away action flicks, but his main characters are predominantly straight(ish) men who have a sense of childish adventure that conflicts with their actual age.
They shirk responsibility to maintain some warped sense of independence, but they soon realize that they are stronger with others, that they are better off when they are happy, and that the very thing that tortures them also grants them their unique spirit.
Gunfight at The Grand Budapest Corral
Anderson proves that you can’t have one without the other. You can’t have the charm without the juvenile imagination. This recursive nature of Wes Anderson protagonists (arguably, we'll admit) doesn’t get old.
WES ANDERSON WRITING STYLE
What makes a Wes Anderson script?
Wes Anderson scripts are completely finished when principal photography begins. He doesn’t limit his imagination for budget constraints. Anderson writes what he wants to write, and then finds a way to get it on film.
The action is precise. He knows exactly how he wants to play out each scene. Anderson will double down on expository information.
If a character receives a letter…Anderson will show you the letter.
His exposition is wonderful because it is so on-the-nose. Anderson has found a way to completely bypass the clunky presentation of essential information that so many other directors struggle with.
He drives home the information so that the viewer can’t miss it. The scene below takes place on page 13 of a 120 page script. Screenwriters know that this is roughly where you should have your inciting incident.
The Royal Tenenbaums Script
We have the necessary information told to us by the manager.
The Royal Tenenbaums Script
But then Anderson cuts to an insert shot of Royal (Gene Hackman) reading the actual letter, which confirms the information we've just learned.
This obsessive control, and reiteration, of information is a trademark of Wes Anderson style.

Screenplay lessons from Moonrise Kingdom
Wes Anderson films are also funny. The director understands that good visual comedy comes from compromising situations or contradictions.
I guess when I think about it, one of the things I like to dramatize, and what is sometimes funny, is someone coming unglued. I don't consider myself someone who is making the argument that I support these choices. I just think it can be funny.
— Wes Anderson
In Anderson's films, often the darker the moments are in spirit, the funnier they can be. Here's an insightful breakdown by none other than Wes Anderson himself of a key scene in Grand Budapest:

WES ANDERSON Characters
Who are Wes Anderson characters?
Wes Anderson characters have an absolutist world view, which is why they are so emotionally fragile and disappointed when the real world turns out differently than they had thought it to be.
Another trait shared by many Wes Anderson characters is that they are often walking contradictions. Children act like adults.
Adults act like children.
Bill Murray in The Royal Tenenbaums plays a psychologist with a depressed wife and serious insecurities, and Jason Schwartzman in Rushmore is a boy genius who is failing his classes.
Much of what makes Wes Anderson characters so remarkable is how he can craft characters who commonly act in ways most would deem inappropriate. These characters say and do awful things, and yet we are still pulling for them.
Why? Because we know they are human.
Wes Anderson characters are flawed both inside and out. They can be petulant, greedy, vengeful, vain, fastidious, controlling, manipulative, liberally perfumed... and yet still likable.
WES ANDERSON DIRECTING STYLE
How does Wes Anderson direct a film?
Wes Anderson films have a very interesting rhythm. The thing I most compare them to is a cinematic Rube Goldberg machine. Many of his scenes contain long tracking shots with rapid-fire action, almost as if characters moving through scenes are the little steel marbles.
Each action is activated with the culmination of a different action:
Zero’s job interview in The Grand Budapest
His editing transitions are very interesting, which is the trademark of any good director. You will find yourself moving through imagery quickly, but when you move onto the next scene the whole thing is completely static.
Using sharp transitions like this creates comedy, but also generates a bit of emotional inertia. We are still reacting to the images from before while applying our emotional knowledge to new and seemingly unrelated visuals. But they aren’t unrelated… this is by design.
Anderson also does cutaways that will, at times, break a scene in half. This is almost like a flashback, or a cutaway joke like a TV gag.
It suggests a profound trust in his viewer to have some level of visual sophistication. He trusts his audience to make those connections.
Here is a video of BTS footage from The Grand Budapest Hotel. This video gives a bit of insight into the Wes Anderson style in practice.
Wes Anderson directs scenes in The Grand Budapest Hotel
When watching BTS footage of Anderson, you quickly find that he doesn’t always work out the creative beats of the scene with actors. Instead, Anderson is giving line readings or adjusting the action of a character on an idiosyncratic level. He can’t help it, nor should he.
Line readings are a quick way to upset a professional actor, and they are generally considered a bit of a faux pas for directors. But Anderson doesn’t make films that offered by the studios, he brings projects that he created to producers and then makes them himself.
It makes sense that his desire for control extends to every line of dialogue. Gene Hackman, Bill Murray, Ralph Fiennes — these are not humble actors excited to get their first big role.
These are movie stars.
What the film looks like at the end is more important than making friends. That isn’t to say Anderson on set is a domineering taskmaster whipping actors like a pack of snow dogs. He gives everyone respect, never looks frazzled, and seems genuinely in love with making films.

Cinematography: Wes Anderson films
Wes Anderson is not a cinematographer; he's a writer and director.
Meet Robert Yeoman, one of the most prolific cinematographers working today. Yeoman has helped cement the visual template associated with Wes Anderson, so much so that Anderson has not worked with another cinematographer for any of his live-action feature films.
The Wes Anderson cinematography style starts with Robert Yeoman
Go and watch non-Anderson films that Robert Yeoman has shot. You'll see what he does differently, and the influence he has had on Anderson.
Anderson and Yeoman often present images in symmetrical, flat compositions. This furthers the "storybook motif" that Anderson creates with his visuals, letting viewers feel like they are moving through some sort of doll house world.
Wes Anderson cinematography style right down the middle
The imagery in Wes Anderson films can be light and fluffy, but it's presented in a direct, succinct, and precise manner. This gives it style and weight.
WES ANDERSON COLOR PALETTE
How does Wes Anderson use color?
Wes Anderson uses a lot of different colors and combinations in his films, and each scene has a distinct, premeditated assembly of colors. The Wes Anderson color palette is every bit as intentional as his directing style.
He and his crew often like to use muted browns, yellows, and reds:
Wes Anderson Color Palette in The Royal Tenenbaums
Color can elicit emotion from the audience, and the same colors can be connected to different emotions based on how you mix the colors, the surrounding imagery, and the general emotional tone of the scene.
In the case above, the browns and oranges play into the somber feel of the scene, and more importantly they are consistent with the look of the overall film. The colors in The Royal Tenenbaums make sense for the era, location, and characters. In short, the colors lend themselves to, and help define, the complete world of the film.

Other times the Wes Anderson color palette will call for bright, highly saturated colors. Look at any scene from The Grand Budapest Hotel.
Wes Anderson uses his color palette to split time periods in Grand Budapest. Each era’s saturated colors represent the mood at the time, specifically with regard to the hotel itself.

WES ANDERSON fashion Style
What are Wes Anderson costumes?
One specific Jean-Luc Godard device that Wes Anderson uses in his films is what Godard referred to as “character uniforms.”
Similar to a cartoon character, the viewer is able to associate a consistent look with a specific character. The viewer forges a more significant relationship along with a set of expectations for each character.
Wes Anderson style on display with his "character uniforms"
Here is an example from Jean-Luc Godard’s Bande à Part. You can see a clear proto-Anderson approach to style taking shape:
In Bande à Part, Jean-Luc Godard uses "character uniforms" as well
There is a certain psychological comfort that comes from knowing what a character is supposed to look like. It doesn’t mean every character has to wear an official uniform, but the costume becomes a uniform over time. If that costume happens to be a traditional uniform, so be it.
Anderson's costume choices leave no room for imagination, mostly because Anderson has already taken up all the available real estate. He's being deliberate and removing all doubt.
If we are supposed to think of Willem Dafoe’s character as creepy and menacing, as in The Grand Budapest Hotel, he shows up wearing black leather and brass knuckles.
What if we are supposed to think of Willem Dafoe’s character differently, say... as a goofy sidekick? In The Life Aquatic, he shows up in short shorts and a goofy-looking beanie with a puffball on top.
Also, the crew members of the research vessel Belafonte wear the same red hats, but the characters tie the hats differently.
It is a small detail, some might even say a relentless detail, but it is yet another example of how three characters can ostensibly wear the same article of clothing. The manner in how they wear it says oodles.

WES ANDERSON font style
What is the Wes Anderson font?
Wes Anderson commonly uses the Futura and Helvetica fonts for his title cards. He has also been known to use Tilda and Didot as well. These fonts match the Wes Anderson style. They are simple, stark, and direct.
Even the Tilda font, which has a bit more flourish than the others, conveys an old-fashioned high-class sort of stability.
This consistency across his films either suggests that Anderson has a premeditated desire to maintain his auteur label, or he just really likes those fonts... a lot.
Wes Anderson font style explained
One of the really unique things about Wes Anderson and his style comes from the fact that we even notice his fonts.
This is because he constantly uses text throughout his films.
Why does Anderson make us read so much? Does he just want to flaunt his fonts? It goes deeper than that.
Anderson knows that forcing a viewer to read even small bits of information will forge a more significant bond with that information.
You often remember what you read. It's another way of conveying details about the story and the world. Text tickles a different part of the brain, and the Wes Anderson style fires on all cylinders.
Text allows him to be direct and succinct. Otherwise, Anderson would run the risk that his important information might be missed or ignored.
A well-designed and well-written title card can be a lot more effective than a clunky expository scene or a "Fred the Explainer" monologue.
