Below you will find the various different mood moods for our website. There are various different mood boards used, this includes costume, characters, location etc. Whilst making the mood board there were various different inspirations, firstly I was inspired by looking at past work and this gave me a stepping stone and it enabled me to make our mood boards. The fact that I was not familiar with Photoshop encouraged me to look at various different videos, this in turn enabled me to learn how to use different effects on Photoshop and hopefully I have utilised this knowledge in creating professional moods boards. The second inspiration was the team and the theme of the trailer, this again gave me a stepping stone which helped me find suitable images that could be use within our mood boards.
CULT MOVIES:
The mood board above is the mood board of various different cult movies. This mood board was made because our movie is a cult movies with different aspects of other genres as well. As you can see I have incorporated six different classic cult movies into this mood board, the movies include The Omen, Evil Dead, and Rosemary’s Baby etc. This mood board was made to show different films that are placed within the cult Horror movie genre. I decided to keep this mood board simple as it just shows the quality of the posters, I warped four pictures to give it a unique effect and hopefully a professional effect. I also used a dissolve effect on the omen poster, this again was done to give the mood board a different aspect.
HORROR AND CULT ICONS:
The above mood board is one the represents different horror and horror cult icons, the mood board just shows the most iconic characters of horror. By doing a mood board like this you are able to see different make up that was used and it also presents the question why did these characters become horror icons. By doing this we can see why they are icons i.e. it can be because of the mask weapons or just because of the character itself, this also enables us to see different aspects and hopefully we will be able to incorporate it into our characters and trailer. I decided to use one image for the background but I believe that this image creates a setting stone for the other images and I tried to blend the images so that not of them looked out of place. Most of the icons have a very creepy and sinister look.
CHARACTERS:
The mood board that you can see above is the mood board of all of the different characters/types of characters that will appear in our movie. I decided to use various different people that I believed would fit into our movie, the males and females used will hopefully be something like the characters that we will use in our trailer. I used five different people on the mood board, each person has their own unique look i.e. the male on the right hand corner (tom Hardy), looks smart and professional whereas the male laying down (Johnny Depp) looks laid back and calm. As I said before these are the sort of looks that we want our characters to have in our trailer.
LOCATION:
The mood board above is the one of location, this mood board shows different types of locations that we would like to match in our trailer. The fact that our movie is cult based inspired me to use various different dark rooms and eerie places such as abandoned rooms of dark rooms that seem very old, this in turn will create a very tense atmosphere within our trailer. As I said before most of the locations used our dark rooms or rooms where someone is being tortured (like a scene from our trailer), I also decided to put a picture of the college within the mood board, this is because we will be filing inside and outside of college to make our trailer professional and the bet that it can be.
COSTUME:
This is the costume mood board that was created, it is pretty self-explanatory, i.e. it contains all of the various different costumes that we would want to use in our trailer. If not exactly the same we would like to make the costumes that we use similar to the ones seen in the mood board above. The images that I have used all seem to dark figures that seem to be wearing a cloak of some sort, I used these images that link in with our trailer, this is because within the trailer there will be a ritual and the characters will be wearing a similar outfit to the ones seen above. This is based most on satanic rituals because as I said it links in with our trailer.
MAKE-UP:
The above mood board represents different make-up that is used within the horror genre, this also links in with our trailer/movie as we plan to use make up for different aspects such as cuts e.g. if someone is being tortured then we need make up such as blood etc. As you can see I have used various different pictures that show people putting on makeup. As you can see the make up in the pictures that have been used look very professional and we would want our make-up to be similar as it will enhance the viewing of the film. Some of the make-up will be harder to do than others but will be hoping to utilise the materials that we will be able to get. As you can see I have decided to use a red theme for the background, this sets a tense atmosphere as red represents evil.
OVERALL MOOD BOARD:
The above mood board is an overall of the mood boards that were created as you can see I have used one picture for the background, this picture is of a skull and as you can see I have incorporated the mood boards that were created into to skull and around the skull. As you can see I have warped some pictures e.g. I have warped two different moods boards to look like the skulls eye socket. I thought this was clever innovative thing to. The logo that was created (come be found on our website) is also on this particular mood board, I did this because it is an overall of all of our mood boards so I have put our own trademark on it i.e. it is something that can be associated with our group/company.
EVALUATION:
This is the evaluation of the mood boards that were created, as you can see I created various different mood boards, this includes characters, make-up, costume etc. I believe that the mood boards went quite well this is because I was able to create each and every mood board that I wanted to create, I believe the mood boards created did link to our movie and hopefully it can the audience an idea of how our trailer/movie would be i.e. the mood boards gave the audience an idea of the types of costumes and make-up that will be in our trailer.
There were also mood boards such as horror icons and cult movies, these mood boards were created to give an idea of some movie inspirations and icons that we would want our killer to be like i.e. we would want the villain to be recognisable.
Overall as I said before I believe that the mood boards went well because although I didn’t know much about Photoshop, I learned and hopefully the look of my mood boards were professional, personally I believe that they looked quite good and I wanted to include different effects to the images to make stand out and again to give it a professional view/look.
