Lighting Mood Board

Together, Chelsea and I formed two mood boards to show the types of lighting style that we would like to try and create for our movie trailer. We have two very contrasting themes, of evil and good, which are conflicting within the character. When we are shown clips of the character in a state of equilibrium the mise en scene, in terms of lighting and effects which can alter how the lighting looks will be brighter, this creates a more peaceful mood and the lack of shadows connotes that they aren't hiding anything. Whereas, during the parts the character is in disequilibrium the lighting will be darker, like the first mood board. There will be a higher contrast in shadow to make the image look darker but also scary as shadows connotes the unknowing and fear. 

In addition to the lighting, during the production stages of creating our product we will be able to adjust the saturation, and any colour filters. This is because warmer colours, like oranges, pinks and yellows represent the feeling of happiness and that everything is content. Whereas, colder colours such as blues connotes feelings of unease and agitation for the audience which will will be trying to portray in our trailer as Pandora is a very mysterious character. 

In both pictures you can see a lot of mist which creates a sense of darkness and mystery especially in the first mood board, the mist is there to almost hide what is going on and to make viewers or audience members feel on edge as they wouldn't like to be entering places like these. 

Where as the second mood board uses the mist to portray a magical feeling as there are fantasy characters, for example; fairy's in the different pictures.
