Planning : Mood Board

Mood board pictures

I have created a mood board consisting of a variety of picture fitting the narrative and initial ideas of my film as well as being specific towards our thriller genre conventions.


Above I have added 8 different pictures I have researched for and found online that fit well into what we want to visually achieve within our film opening. In the top left there is a picture of whiskey next to a cigarette and this particular photo gives us many ideas of shots we can create with these kind of props to further develop the characterisation of our protagonist as they will give connotations of his rough side if he is seen using and placing these types of things. To the right of this photo is a picture of Ice Cube. I selected this picture for my mood board as I view his look and persona as a character will fit perfectly in our character of the Chief Inspector due to his relaxed costume choice not wearing official police uniform and also the angry and interesting facial expressions he conveys are what we are looking for in our casting for the Chief Inspector character. I have also added a picture of a digital clock. I decided to add this because of our films title; '3:15', as the style of the numbers on the clock is what we hopefully will create our titles in the style of, using the red digital clock affect. Under the digital clock picture and also to the right of it are two pictures that I have added for similar reasons to the first picture I have previously wrote about. In addition to my previous point, the picture of the man smoking it is important to highlight I have selected a picture in which a match is being used as we are planning to do this. The match is important as it adds an edge to the character as he s using what isn't the typical lighting technique of a cigarette in todays modern society. As well as this I think we can create some interesting cinematic shots with the flame from the match. Below the top four pictures I have added another three. On the left I have added a picture of Kevin Bacon a I think his look fits perfectly for our protagonist; John Wayne. In the middle of the three is a police officer and I have selected this because his stance and posture is how I hope to direct our police officer character as it shows a sense of power so when our protagonist passes him there will be a highlight of importance in him from that moment. Finally on the right I have added a picture of police tape as this something we hope to implement onto our crime scene location.
