To grasp the complete concept of my short film, I have decided to make a mood board. A mood board allows me to put many images together to show what my project is essentially about.
This is a complete mood board on what I want my short film to feel like.
The Flowers: The flowers represent growth. Flowers are constantly growing with the right nutrition and resources, so as my main character grows as a person they will begin to thrive. The childish effect that the drawn flowers give off allow me to show that the person in the film is still growing as a person; trying to figure out who they are.
The Camera: The camera represents the emotion behind it. I want to include old-school clips of the main character filming themselves and their friends. I want to create a fun perspective for the audiences, while expressing the many emotions that people experience while growing up as a teen.
The Candy: The candy represents childhood. Candy is more likely to be connected to children. I want my main character to show childish aspects while growing up. The reason for this is because in today's generation it is harder to keep childish aspects when everyone is constantly trying to mature too quickly.
The Mind: The mind represents the psychology behind the film. As a student who has taken multiple psychology classes, I wanted to input the idea of a possible mental illness into the audiences. While the mental illness would never be revealed, I want audiences to believe that there may be one.
The Cries: The cries represent the amount of emotion in the film. Like I said before, I want to represent the large amount of emotion that's in a teenager as they figure out who they are. As a teenager myself, I am still figuring out who I am so in a way this short film reflects my inner thoughts on childhood and coming-of-age.
