Mood Board (with analysis)


Mood Board

This mood board shows a variety of different thriller movie posters and thriller movie screenshots. The mood board will give us inspiration that we can use when making our own thriller poster or maybe even for some parts of our final video.
The colours in the images are one of the first noticeable things. There are no bright or vivid colours used. They are mainly blacks and reds. These colours add to the mystery that a thriller tries to create and also gives the action a slightly evil feel. Also the connotations associated with the colours red and black give the audience a subconscious sinister feeling giving the visual aspect more of an impact. Some of these connotations are: evil, blood, aggression and power.
The posters also focus around one person, whether it is the protagonist or antagonist. Having just one character in the shot focuses the audiences attention on that character and can either create the feeling that either the protagonist is isolated and vulnerable or that the antagonist is powerful and scary.
The posters are rather minimalistic which is a good thing because it doesn’t give a lot away in terms of what the film contains but has enough to intrigue the audience and make them want to watch the film.
