N1  - Title from title frames; Film; In Process Record; Alex Roe, Misha Kavka, Sandra Rato; Originally produced by Ronin Films in 2017
N2  - 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?
