This task was to give the overall feel and look of our film concept which is shown through 8 different moodboards conveying different topics. For example Antagonists, Mise-en-scene etc. All the moodboards were created on Photoshop mainly collage-style but some had various effects added.
Moodboards
Movie InfluencesThis moodboard contains various scenes of different horror films which influenced our overall concept. This includes Halloween, Friday the 13th etc. Both are slasher films which is our sub-genre.
|
NVCThis moodboard contains shots of the different types of NVC that our protagonists and antagonists will show. The NVC's used hear is mainly fear, shock, anxiety, terrified and anger.
|
LightingThe lighting that will be used in our trailer will be mainly low-key. This is shown through the moodboard and the multiple dark contrasting shots. This will help to create tension in our trailer.
|
SettingsThe settings moodboard shows the location that we wish to base our trailer/film on. It shows wood-like areas and cemeteries which are fogged out to give a sense of mystery.
|
Props/CostumeThe main prop for our antagonist will be the kukri knife which is shown on the moodboard. Also, because the antagonist was ex-military, he will also use tactical equipment such as rope. This will be shown in our trailer.
|
ProtagonistFor our concept, we have chosen to have 3 protagonists which are shown at the bottom. The moodboard conveys their hobbies and interests which are music, sports, fashion etc. However, they may lose these interests due to unforeseen circumstances.
|
AntagonistThe moodboard consists of our antagonist, a crazy ex-military soldier suffering from shell-shock. This is shown through the various pictures of the straight jacket and cell.
|
Slasher themeThis moodboard creates the overall feel of slasher films. There is lots of violence and gore present in the film usually due to an antagonist with a melee weapon.

Artwork
For this task, I had to draw props, character or anything of relevance which may inspire ideas for my trailer/poster/magazine. From the concepts and synopsis, I have tried to create different ways the title of our film could look like. Also, I have tried to create the soldier (antagonist) and the way they would appear with props and costume.
