The first thing I was impressed with was the design of the characters clothing. I enjoy the fantasy setting and have absorbed so much of it's content and I have to say the design in this was pretty good. A lot of the designs in a lot of fantasy settings today is the typical, steel armour, steel sword or fur armour that doesn't have any colour or various to it. Where in this film one of the first things we see is this dark armour with a red outlining to it, which in the light is shown to be made from dragon scales which then shows us that their whole group wears this armour which is a nice change and something new.
The next thing I enjoyed was the colouring on one scene, where a dragon enters a pitch black cave to suddenly be greeted with bright neon lights emitting from various crystals. Now this in itself was very appealing to the eyes using a wide tracking shot as the dragon spins in the air but the scene then goes darker to reveal that the dragon scales are lighting up like a UV light added even more to the shot. What I learned is that sometimes you don't need words to create a stunning shot, all you need is is a create approach to show the audience something stunning and then wondering how to add to that.
