Our task for this week was for everyone in our group to create a moodboard of our initially ideas for our thriller. The moodboards included, pictures of our filming location (Castle Cornet), different camera shots that could be used, costume ideas and prop ideas.
Click on each of pictures to see the moodboard in full.
My initially ideas for our thriller was to create a sequence where the antagonist was following/chasing after the protagonist, through the dark passageways of the castle and to have POV shots of this happening.
Kit’s idea was to have the castle set as an old abandoned hospital, and to have a doctor who wears a medieval mask so that it would hide his identity, chase a young female and murder her using old surgical tools and a mixture of different types of medicine.
Louis’s idea was that there would be two detectives investigating a murder at the castle and while the detectives were examining the clues, there would be flashbacks, which lead up to reveal of the murderer, who turns out to be one of the detectives.
After looking at each of the different moodboards, we decided to try and merge some of the ideas from each of them as we thought that the hospital theme would be a good idea, as it would allow us to use a range of mise-en-scene. But then we also liked the idea of the two detectives investigating a crime, which then could lead to flashbacks of the crime which we could use a chase scene in.
