The film shares most of its attributes with "Godzilla". A big monster terrorizes the city until it falls asleep, resides or dies. These films seem rather boring to look at now, thought at the time they utilized the best special effects around at the time to captivate the audience. As I look through more and more of these adverts I seem to see very similar things for example they all seem incorporate people screaming (especially women), maybe in my ident I should include this.
The music in this film is quite light hearted at the beginning then gloomy when the Beast strikes (to create tension). This may effect I'l use. At the moment I'm thinking about using moving silhouettes of various well known characters/aliens/spaceships and dramatic music for the ident.
Again the text in this advert very similar to "Invasion of the Body Snatchers". Vintage bold metaphoric texts seem to be important an important attribute to these sci-fi movies . So it will probably be something I look to impose heavily in my ident.
Comedy in Sci-Fi
There's definitely a comedy attribute to this , the voice over been so over dramatic and the funky music at the start. I may well have a quite comedic tone to my advert as old sci-fi should probably be viewed slightly less seriously then modern sci-fi. Though sci-fi often does have touches of comedy in built regardless on the seriousness of the situation . For example Star Wars has had comedy moments all the way through the series. As well as Star-Trek and many other famous sci-fi features.
