Thriller Moodboard

 

This is my mood board that I have created of all my ideas and thoughts on the thriller genre. The mood board includes images as well as words and phrases that I would use to describe a thriller. Some my images used are from thriller films which further my research of the genre. These films include Se7en, Batman, Shutter Island, The Purge and Silence of the Lambs. The words I have chosen to put on my mood board reflect the genre. The stereotypical thriller has suspense, fear, excitement, mystery, shadows, weapons and an unpredictable storyline.  I have incorporated various elements of a thriller to my mood board such as lighting, mise en scene, setting, camera work e.g. stereotypical shots used within a thriller film and props used by the characters. I have built costume into the mood board as costume is a good indicator of the type of genre as thriller costumes are usually dark, torn and covered in blood as some point of the film.
