Lab Moodboard
In this mood board pictures were used to make it apparent that the infection originated from a lab which goes with our trailer name LAB and that the zombies are reanimated through a viral infection or contamination of the DNA by using bio hazard pictures and pictures of beakers and chemicals. Also with this picture a flame effect was put on top of the other pictures to show chaos and destruction as that is what fire usually brings about (chaos, destruction and is usually followed by death which works because zombies are the walking dead).
School Mood boardA consistent grimy effect with this mood board, using a yellow colour as it gives a sense of rotting, dirty, old, and adds a dramatic effect to the rest of the pictures when blended. This effect is a trademark of the group and is used in a lot of our work. Also an attempt was made to pin the light on some pictures to make certain ones stand out such as the two larger scale zombies to draw attention as they are center of the mood board.
The main theme was a school/ college theme as our trailer is based in a college so zombie school/ college photos were used as well as using ordinary classroom photos as a background and to overlay the mood board keeping a constant theme of school/ college. |
School Mood board 2
This mood board was again inspired by the college theme that is being attempted in our trailer, however in this mood board I used the pin light effect a lot and didn't cut out any of the images and instead tested my abilities in effects. The grimy effect was only used really in the top left corner of the mood board, but an attempt to keep the bloody red effect going was done using overlay and soft lighting with some opacity change.
The inspiration was developed from the first school mood board that I did and some photos are left over photos from the first one encouraging me to complete a second one. The reason this one was kept at the college theme is to further expand on the fact students would be a key role in the trailer, particularly of teenage age. |
Zombie Infection Mood boardThis mood board was formed to establish the infection part of our trailer by using blood splatters, bio hazard signs and throwing on zombies that have been reanimated due to viral infection/ DNA contamination. An attempt was made to make the red stand out to represent the blood and it also it makes the mood board more visual.
The one thing very unique about this mood board is that it doesn't use the same grimy effect as the rest, but instead i used bloody pictures and blood splatters to give it an edge as well as using a white poster like picture to out on top. In this mood board the cut outs were purposely made shabby in some parts to give a dissolving/ deteriorated look to them, however if any, not much is visible to the viewers of the mood board. However another type of cut out was done to pictures with a black or dark background, which was to cut out the main figure with some background giving a shadow effect to make the background pictures stand out, especially since the white poster picture was placed over the mood board pictures. |
Weapons Mood board 1This is a weapons mood board displaying all the weapons usually used to fight off a zombie infection such as blunt objects, blades, knives, hand guns, heavy machine guns, rifles, etc. The bio hazard sign is a trait that is adopted throughout all the created mood board to remind people its an infection being fought off, and the Call of Duty extract was used because of the weapons he was using, how he held them and the lighting on the original picture was great to go onto the mood board as a front layer.
Again that same grimy yellow effect was trying to be incorporated but to make the background more exciting blood splatters were added and hard/ soft light effects were used to make weapons blend and some stand out. Also a different background was found with scribbles on it to give it a unique look instead of just a plain effect. The overall board has a solid look but 3 versions were made with the same layout, pictures, etc, however the finishing effect is different. One was the original with the grimy effect, the other a brighter effect to make the Call of Duty extract stand out with he bio hazard symbol and the last is a dingy, grimy dark colour which gives a feeling of deterioration. |
