Mood Board

This is the mood board that we have created to research into the themes we intend to explore whithin our film. This will create a visual representation of what we aim to show in our film. We used 'Empire' magazine and pictures found on the internet for the mood board on an A3 piece of paper. There are various gambling related pictures,our film's main theme. The IVF treatment link is shown through one of our pictures and again represents one of the central themes in our film. The other pictures and quotes have more subtle implications for example the text 'In a lonely place' indicating our characters isolation not only at the poker table as an in-experienced gambler but also as someone who has the world against him - unable to conceive a child). We also wanted to represent the types of items and people that are typically associated within the world of gambling and gambling films, such as the bottle of alcohol, the briefcase of money (indicating the winnings) and the typical suit-wearing people that engage in the games. Also, our main character is a previous afghanistan veteran who was wounded in combat, which we represented through the pictures of soldiers on the mood board, indicating his military background.
