How to Become a Better Filmmaker With CINEMATIC Moodboards

[@MyahNaomi]

I love creating moldboards and lookbooks for my projects. These were helpful tips. Thank you!

[@BrittneyJanae]

They are so fun! It makes the results even more worthwhile because you’re like omg we actually brought the vision to life EXACTLY how I saw fit!!

[@Nwa_father]

Wow!!!! For a long time now I have been looking for such information. Thank you dear....

[@tracycrum3788]

Great video! Very informative and succinct. Perfect for showing to my students in our Film Class.

[@KG-theknickerbockerkid]

cool beans. the problem that many people may encounter is that there is no simple formula but rather a lot of different research and development activities that happen before you even touch the equipment. A lot of us novices just want to jump in and 🎬. ultimately, i wind up with a lot of accidental media where i say to myself “wow. it almost seems like i actually knew what i was doing”

[@gwilo2]

Hi Brittney, just found your channel and subscribed. Love all your content! It's so concise and well presented and you make it easy to understand and are a joy to watch and listen to. Thank you!

[@FranchesterWilliams]

This definitely helps when you are working with people even with short form videos.

🖼📷 The many directions to expand the concept of Vision Boards. When the kids of an era became adults, using picture-books professionally, more than the math their elders said they'd utilize more than anything else aside from reading.

very good, thank you!

[@Garytyronejohnson]

Awesome. Very informative information. Thanks.

[@PatrickGregoryDaniels]

This video helped me a lot. I’m a beginner it mood boarding and storyboarding. I’m curious to know. What’s the difference between the two if you don’t mind adding. Thank you sister for sharing from your experiences and God bless you and your family. Also peace ✌🏿

[@BrittneyJanae]

So moodboarding is when you give an overall viewpoint of how you want the visuals. Storyboarding focused on chronological order scene by scene of the frame and how you want it shot. The moodboard is more visual and the storyboard is more focused on the frame you’re shooting. Let me know if that makes sense

[@PatrickGregoryDaniels]

@@BrittneyJanae totally 👍🏿 one’s more general in the direction of vibe/aesthetic while the other is chronologically organizing actual frames

[@PatrickGregoryDaniels]

@@BrittneyJanae thanks again

[@Alanwking]

Thanks for this video. It's very helpful.

[@Fodaydontplay]

Thank you for this.. very helpful.. I did not think of using my phone to at least get started.. I wish shot deck was free again

[@BrittneyJanae]

Yea use your phone use Instagram use it all!! Instagram is a great way to find images as well. I usually save an image I see that I like and create a folder that way

[@Fodaydontplay]

@@BrittneyJanae okay thanks

[@emmanuelOfilms]

Thanks for sharing 🙏🏽 much appreciated 🫶🏽

very informative

[@americaneagle126]

Great insight, thank you!

[@titusnixon]

Hey Brittney, once again you gave me some ideas I kinda thought about but didn't have it all together. Moodboard, Okay gotta look into that. I've been using Apple Keynote to put together a storyboard. Stop laughing, but it has kinda worked for me. Thanks as usual

[@BrittneyJanae]

Hey whatever works!!

[@okikiconsulting]

What's your thoughts on Art List? Does frameset or shot deck have free options?

[@BrittneyJanae]

Artlist is great! It’s pricey but literally has everything you need! They just added AI voiceover and they have LUTs on there for your footage. I get all my sound effects and music off of it! So it’s my go-to. Frameset and ShotDeck does not have free options but their are other options to find inspo that is free. I can’t remember them all but good free film inspiration

[@kingmessang]

please do you have a moodboard template you could share, i really need one for a project

[@fritzp7112]

This is awesome!!

[@BrittneyJanae]

Thank you!!

[@ikechukwusimon1143]

[@piusgyagenda]

What is the difference between a moodboard and a storyboard? Thank you for this video though

[@BrittneyJanae]

A storyboard gives a more chronological detail of the scene. A moodboard is more of an overview while a storyboard focuses shot by shot in detail of frame. Hope that helps.

[@ideaplusagency]

I'm always afraid sometimes to do mood boards for clients because I'm trying to add images to show the TYPE of shots that I want and they may look at it as the color and STYLE of shots that I will deliver. How do you get around that?

[@BrittneyJanae]

So you could use text to help with that. So for instance in big bold text one page may say lighting and then put images on how you want lighting and you can even explain the look you’re going for to help the images (do that all on your board), the next page could be shot angles or composition, and do the same, post images or videos that will show how and what you want to shoot, and then do one for color and find images that show the mood and tone you want. Hope that helps?

[@OkorieIfeanyiDarlington]

Hey Brittney great video can you share your moodboard

[@BrittneyJanae]

You can change how you see fit! That’s one of them. They all are pretty differently depending on the project

Pls can i get permission, it says i don't have permission to see the design

Please as a gaffer i need help ...want to get websites for moodboard for a gaffer. Please help me.

[@sazriman]

Next maybe story board process?

[@BrittneyJanae]

Could def do a part 2!

[@omorinmade]

Hmmm, what is the difference between moodboard, storyboard and treatment

[@BrittneyJanae]

A storyboard is more of a order of sequence format, usually showing each scene that needs to be shot in order. A moodboard usually is just inspiration images to visually show your idea A treatment is a summary of the overall project! So it’s not just focused on the cinematography but moreso every aspect involved such as characters, story, theme, mood and etc. For cinematographers normally we’re creating the lookbook aka the moodboard, and the shot list with the director and sometimes the storyboard if they don’t have an artist for that.
