Where was the nightmare before christmas filmed?

The Nightmare Before Christmas was created as a stop‑motion animated feature at Walt Disney Animation Studios, located in Burbank, California. The production studio is where the model sets, animatronic puppets, and lighting rigs were built and where the film was photographed frame by frame. The film’s production was overseen by director Henry Selick and produced in collaboration with Tim Burton, who conceived the story. While the film was a Disney production, it was not shot on location in a real world setting; instead, the animation was created entirely in the studio’s controlled environment. Thus, the primary filming location is the Burbank studio complex that housed the animation teams and equipment.
