Monsters were created by mankind to explain the world around us and the world inside of us, we as humans create monsters. He gets the ideas of monsters from insects and other types animals that he saw in his early childhood. He put the role of the monsters in his movies to show how humans create their own monsters. He then adds other special effects that he thinks would make the character more effective for the movie.
Ofelia is a little girl who seeks refuge from the violence and misery of her life in a fantasy world that turns out to be just as menacing. Quoted by John Calhoun in American cinematography. Pan's Labyrinth is basically a mirror of what this world is today, says Guillero.
The visuals in the film tells the story on its own. The darkness and the color style let the graphics in the film carry the story's burden. “The image becomes the grammar of the story” says Navarro. The camera basically fits the shoes of Ofelia (the main character). The people who are watching the film learns, discover, understand, and feel what Ofelia feels. In the film Pan's labyrinth you kind of get confused of whats happening if its in Ofelia fantasy world or real life. Colors like deep crimsons and golden ambers which are warm colors were used in Ofelia's fantasy world where they have more round shapes. The harsh reality was represented by cold hues of blue, and green environment which features sharp angles.
The colors start to mix in with each other throughout the film thats where you see the unity of Ofelia's fantasy world and the real world. Navarro said that with the mixing of colors he found the language that was needed to help the audience understand the complexity of the movie.
This shows that he went through a great extent on creating and improving his monsters and the film exactly the way he wants them.
