Mood Board

Mood Board

Hey guys!

To further our brainstorming process, my group and I decided on creating mood boards for what our general idea of the film would be. This mood board that I created in Canva is of the general outline I wrote about in the last blog post. The red font and flames/background is meant to symbolize passion, which our main character feels as she dances. Her main form of expressing anything she is going through is by dancing. 

I included pictures of people dancing by themselves, as this is commonly how our main character would dance. (I am calling her main character because we have not yet decided on a name for her). The city pictures with Broadway symbolize the places her persistence took her. Also, there is a rainbow in the hand of one of the pictures to reinforce the idea of LGBTQ+ that we would like to include in her persona. 

We also took to Pinterest to further our brainstorming process and create another mood board. Personally, I am a more visual learner and by seeing all of our ideas expressed through pictures makes it more engaging and inspiring. As you can see in the video of the mood board below, we focused on including pictures of dancing passionately and being engaged and fully loving the art of dance. Included in our board we also attached a picture of a small town, where our main character would be from, and juxtaposed next to it is her dream, New York City. Having these two contrasting locations on the mood board was important as it reassured us to focus on the two extremes and try to show that in our film opening.
