NOTES
Title from title frames
This documentary explores how reality television is constructed and consumed, and the psychological impact it has on participants. It examines how the characters of people on reality television are simplified to serve the show's needs and narratives. Further, it questions whether our consumption of reality television negatively affects the lives of the reality television participants. On the surface CREATING A MONSTER is about reality television. However, sub-textually the film confronts a bigger ethical question about the psychological impact on the contestants: is the fault placed on reality television producers or the audience who consumes the product? Winner of the Favorite Film Vote at the **Byron Bay International Film Festival**
