Moodboard

After brainstorming our ideas for our short film and analysing and researching into the conventions of typical British and American short films of my choice, I have began to make a moodboard which helps me to visualise better my ideas and will also give me some guidance for how I wish to shoot my film. Alex and I want our film to be an Action/Adventure story as I have already explained in my research about Action/Adventure Short Films as well as my post about the factors to consider when choosing a film genre. On the other hand, we both wish for our story to be about a main protagonist character who is being held hostage by a leading criminal, however the protagonist this time escapes from the his interrogation by escaping using his sly escapist techniques against the villains.

In the moodboard, I have shown several images of cars in close up angles which is a possible method we wish for our protagonist character to escape from the criminals. There are also some images of costume designs since we were both thinking that we wanted to change-up the costumes compared with the ones which we used in our Opening Sequence last year. As well as the usual suits, we wish to have a couple of actors wearing more sci-fi outfits which can create a new edge to the story. Very soon, Alex and I will be posting our rough cut storyboard as we need to continue refining our story more.

In my next post, Alex and I will be pitching our idea to our secondary audience who will then hopefully give us feedback on our ideas.
