Monsters- Gareth Edwards- 2010
This sci-fi-Thriller-Drama film had a tiny budget of $800,000 (estimated) If I was creating this film in real life would be my sort of budget. This made me really look at this film and the sort of things I could create with a low budget.
The trailer for monsters isn't anything with a wow factor but it definitely gets you interested to watch it. It starts off slowly mainly focusing on the (I assume protagonist) taking photos, I really like the enhanced camera shutter sounds, I feel it made me seem closer to the action and also really made me focus on the minor features of the trailer. I feel like the trailer almost over-used titles. It felt like you didn't see enough actual action to be 100 percent involved as it was interrupted too often. I did however like the colour choice of the titles the pitch black background with the ice- blue lettering, I think it really suited the sci-fi genre.
I think the setting choice for this film- Mexico really helped the film by being able to get unusual shots of unique scenery. This is something I need to really think about with my home town of Hastings.
