Mood Board

This is the mood board that myself,Chelsea,Rhys and Scott put together. We have created a mood board so we can represent our chosen genre which is comedy/horror. By working as a team we was all able to identify 4 key concepts and show them on the mood board in a way that the audience will be able to understand.

Our 4 key concepts of the mood board are stereotypical blondes,costumes,comedy (comedians) and survivors.We decided that those were our 4 key concepts because when people watch a comedy/horror film, those concepts are the sort of thing that they would expect to see. Costumes are a key concept of a comedy horror because costumes, depending on what they are can be quite scary, but because our genre is comedy horror,the costumes are quite silly. We have decided to put comedians on our mood board because we wanted to show the audience that a comedy horror film isn't just horror with elements of comedy in it, it's a horror with equal amounts of comedy in it.

We also decided to add stereotypical blondes into the mood board because in almost comedy horror or horror film you will see a blonde girl and usually the blonde girl portrays herself as not being very intellectual and they're usually the first ones killed, also they appeal more to the male audience.

Another key concept that we decided to add onto our mood board is survivors. Survivors are one of the main concepts in comedy/horror films there will always be that one person, male or female who will survive til the end whereas the baddy gets defeated. This is almost like a fairytale because they live happily ever after.
