2. Mind Map
Adventures
My first idea was to do a
film similar to this because
my character group are
being stalking by the
stranger but two characters
are killed off and two
characters survivor.
I liked the story idea
because it’s hilarious and
amazing. the young group
goes to search the treasure
but the bad adult group
who keep hiding the
treasure. So, the bad group
keep following the young
group and lucky young
group alive and the police
Horror
My first idea was to do a film
similar to this because the
character called Michael and
he stalker and kill three
babysitters. My film will be
same as character stalker and
murderer.
I liked the story idea because
that was so scary and chill. I
want my storyline is same as
stalker and murderer and
trying to kill four people.
Comedy
My first idea was to do a
film similar to this because
this can be makes my
audience will surprising or
shocking. My film might be
similar these film because
that film influenced me
about they getting
surprised when the
stranger stalking the group
and trying to kill them.
I liked the story idea
because they can’t
remember what happened
last night. So, they realize
people who anger and love
with them because they
can’t even remember what
they did to people and
they feel like someone
stalker them.

4. Mood Board

5. Mood Board Analysis
Is there any repetition in the images you have collected? Repeated colours/images
styles/fonts/tone/mood
• I collected some mood board images because I want to see all images to match my short film.
• I collected all the mood board are more creepy.
• I collected some horror fonts from the Google called the DaFonts. There have a lots of different group
of genre fonts like horror, comedy, action and everything else.
• I collected some colours from the other movies.
• I not need any sound because I am deaf and my film is fully deaf movie. I removed the voice and
background off like a silent movie. But I will must using the subtitles because that is important to
hearing people who is not understand sign languages.
• I collected some scary and creepy images styles for the poster and DVD cover.
How will your mood board influence your final product?
• My mood board are influence me to more idea and I can imagine what is it look like. All mood board
are black/white and there aren’t a lots of colourful. I want my short film is more creepy like dark, cold
and spooky.
• Connotation of this fonts, DaFonts are important because I want my title looks more scary. My
audience will be notice my film is linking to horror genre. Also the subtitles will using DaFont for
colours each the characters who is talking.
• I must will put my poster and DVD cover colours is dark and shadows because the colours is show to
my audience will be know which the genre are. The horror is always have dark, shadow, blood and
fogs.
• I will picking the image of someone wear hoodie and dark and shadow on their face to makes no-one
know who they is.

7. Choices
Discounted ideas Reasons for not choosing this
project
The Hangover. • No, because that film has lots of comedy with no
horror or gore.
• The main characters only three but I want my film
lots of characters.
• They talking about the party and drug stuff. But my
film is talking about death and stalking.
• Also there has lots of characters like co-characters
and background. But my film only 5 characters not
too much enough.
• I would not be able to film at any locations suitable
for this film as it would have to include a pub, hotel,
road, car, hospital and casino.
The Goonies. • I can’t because there has a horror like skeletons and
bad group. But there is mostly comedy.
• The characters are too young. My film is teenagers
characters.
• Same as too much characters on that film.
• There had a skeletons but I no have any those.
• Also I not interested it because that is really old
movie.
