Mood Board
The mood board I created is linked in with
six religions. These are Rastafari, Hindu, Buddhism, Satanism, Wicca and
Christianity. These religions were conveyed by the different images on the mood
board.
Rastafari – The Rasta coloured peace sign
and weed sign.
Hindu – the Hindu symbol, the colour
festival smoke, the Hindu hand and the Hindu God, Ganesh.
Buddhism – the lotus flower and the Buddha.
Satanism – The Satan drawing.
Wicca – The pentagram.
Christianity – The last supper painting and
the stained glass background.
My mood board was put together by putting
pictures were I thought they would fit into the mood board for example the
stained glass as the background because it doesn’t take the whole focus of the
mood board yet it is noticed. I arranged the mood board to be colourful yet not
to in your face, the colours used are subtle and not to bright therefore
allowing the whole mood board to be take in and not just one section of the
mood board.
The sources I used were mainly secondary as
the images were off the Internet as I had no time to prepare for the mood
board. I looked at different aspects for the mood board such as artist. I also
used a painting, the last supper, in the mood board so I was incorporating more
of a variety of textures. I used Photoshop to create the mood board, I mainly
just took a picture and cut it to the shape that I wanted I then played around
and seen where the picture would fit and look right and then I would place it. I
like to think that the use of the placement worked well as all the pictures can
be seen and not one is too big to take over the whole mood board.
I am happy with my mood board because the
layout is done well and I am able to study each of the aspects of the mood
board easily. I personally like the lotus flower as it informs you what
religions are on the mood board and it is a pretty colour. I wish I had taken
more time to make everything more blended and less rough edged. I would change
the pentagram in the top corner as it is not a colour that goes with the subtle
colour scheme as it is a silver and green were as the rest are yellows, pinks
etc. I would do this so that the pentagram fitted into the mood board more.
