'The Watch' is first and foremost a comedy, but since I got to shoot the film using elements from the sci-fi genre, I wanted to make sure the alien didn't look goofy. I got to make a real alien that looks dangerous. That was a big plus for me because I got to do something really fun and cool.
This quote highlights the filmmaker's approach to blending genres—primarily comedy with sci-fi elements. The emphasis on creating a convincing yet intimidating alien demonstrates a dedication to visual authenticity within a humorous context. It also reflects the fun and creative challenge of balancing tone and design in filmmaking, making the process both entertaining and rewarding.
