One of Tim Burton's earliest animated shorts, Vincent will be converted to a stereoscopic 3-D form for Walt Disney Pictures.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film will play on 3-D-ready digital-cinema screens as the opening attraction to screenings of Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas in Disney Digital 3-D.

Made in 1982, Vincent is a six-minute stop-motion film that tells the story of Vincent Malloy, a youth who imagines that he is like Vincent Price. The black-and-white short is based on a poem written by Burton, who was influenced by Price, and who also narrated the film.

The Nightmare Before Christmas was released October 29th, 1993 and stars Danny Elfman, Chris Sarandon, Catherine O'Hara, William Hickey, Glenn Shadix, Paul Reubens, Ken Page, Edward Ivory. The film is directed by Henry Selick.
