MOODBOARDS
Here, is a overall visual feel and look of our teams film concept. The purpose of these moodboards, is to get a snapshot of styling and specific elements that may occur or relate to our film. I used Photoshop for this task and used a range of cropping and blending techniques that allowed me to create different effects for different moodboards.
Film Sub-Genre:
|
Theme: Criminal Activity & SurvivalThis mood board portrays a good summary of our film concept. It exaggerates the crimes in the society of today and indicates that the law, i.e. police officers, have to offer formal control. This relates to the film concept and will be identified throughout the trailer.

Mise-En-Scene:
Setting
The location of our trailer will be based in London, in the borough of Lewisham and this is signified through the images that are displayed above. However, the majority of our trailer will be shot in isolated areas such as back street roads and abandoned places. I've done half of the images in the day time and the other half at night. This is to link in with the order of our trailer as the beginning will be day time (daily duties) and where the disequilibrium happens, night time (darkness) will occur.

NVCAbove are some of the facial expressions (non-verbal communication) that will be used throughout the trailer. Scared, shock, fright, cunning and in deep thought are just a few that will be used. This is to emphasis on the characters emotions. I decided to do the mood board black and white so the images blended in with one another with a smooth effect.

LightingIn this image, portrayed is low key lighting. This will reflect the type of lighting that will be portrayed in the trailer. This is good as it gives off a more mysterious feel.
|
Characters & CostumesThis portrays the type of characters that will be included in our trailer. There are five teenagers that all take part in illegal activities in which the antagonist (the bad cop) wants to get rid of.

Film Influences
The Purge:AnarchyOne film that influenced the concept of our film is The Purge: Anarchy. This film inspired our concept through current situations that are happening in society today, i.e. the state being violent and aggressive to young youths. However, this film has little gore so by ensuring that our trailer represents the slasher sub-genre, we will include more.
|
Friday the 13thAn additional film that influenced the concept of our film is Friday the 13th. This film inspired our concept by following the conventions of a traditional slasher horror film. For example, an antagonist, protagonist and isolated setting. We applied this film to our concept to ensure that we produce a film of the slasher genre.
