Mood Board for "Super"-Hero!

 Welcome back bloggers! Today, I will be showcasing the mood board I created for my groups' final project: "Super"-Hero!

    In the previous post where I revealed the idea we chose for our final project, I said that the opening for "Super"-Hero was going to be a comedic action scene. With that in mind, I found some pictures to provide inspiration for how we could shoot the final product. As for the superhero, Power-Man, himself, I thought he should look somewhat professional, but still just out-of-place enough to feel unserious. This is why I not only included pictures of Superman, a fairly serious and established superhero character, but I also included Captain Man, a superhero from a kids show! Additionally, since we opted to switch from the superhero stomping into the house to a superhero landing, I included a photo of, well, a superhero landing! I'm not sure if that's the exact pose we'll use for the final product, but considering the nature of the film it might not be such a bad idea to go for a classic. One minor detail I mentioned earlier was that I thought Power-Man should look somewhat professional, but just unserious enough to hint at his incompetency, and I think the picture of an absolutely non-serious Spider-Man costume in the middle of the board fits my thinking perfectly.

    As for where we will shoot the final opening, I had ideas of shooting in a fairly commonplace home, since we didn't want the robbers to be high-profile criminals and more just your everyday anti-do-gooders. With that in mind, I included photos of a white house and white interiors, since not only would that be perfect for the nature of the robbing scenes themselves, but also because I think I have an idea of where we can film our final project in real life since the house looks similar to one I know. In the brainstorming post, I mentioned how the editing for this opening would have a comic book feel to it, hence the inclusion of comic-style pictures, including one featuring Superman being defeated by Joker, which gives me some ideas of how we could depict our superhero being defeated. Finally, to emphasize the comedic aspects of the film, I want something old-school in terms of comedic effect. With that in mind, I included a picture of a Looney Tunes episode since I think that show has the perfect comedic effects that I'm looking to create with this project.
