Look! You fools! You’re in danger! Can’t you see? They’re after you! They’re after all of us! Our wives…our children…they’re here already! You’re next!—Dr. Miles Bennell
This is an advert for above titled film. It came out on the 5 February 1956. Directed by Don Siegel (who also directed "Dirty Harry" and "Escape from Alcatraz"- Quite a good range of iconic films then. In this advert he uses the madness of the main character (Miles Bennell) to try and capture the viewers attention. The shouting and the loud brass instruments are used here to grab the attention of the viewer. Maybe in my soundtrack I should have a mix of old and knew music. For instance as the sequence is old fashioned clips are in view-an old sound track. Then when the Sci Fi channel logo comes up- knew eerie music.
The graphics in this are also something to take note of, the text is very of its time this is something I should look at finding and utilising for it makes the piece seem much more authentic. It should make it stand out to the viewers aswell.
The Plot.
The plot is something I must consider to. The 1950's was very post war. Invasion of the Body Snatchers is based on the fear created by it. The fact that death had been everywhere and could come out of no where(the atomic bomb) . Something that people hadn't really had to deal with before the war.I'd like to base Ident on something political to. I'm going to have to deside whether I should base it on a knew matter or an old one. It may be interesting to create an old fashioned film based on knew events.
