How to make mood boards for your short film

Moodboards are a powerful tool for developing your film's visual identity and collaborating with your crew. In this tutorial video I cover how to make moodboards with an emphasis on short film and independent film production, and use examples from my own project to show different use cases for moodboards.

do i need to make a moodboard for a short film? no. did i watch this video anyway because the pretty pictures very cool? yes.

[@Indietrix]

thanks rowan :) you can moodboard anything. making a Little Mix themed cake? why not moodboard?

[@juura680]

what app did did you use to make the moodboard? And what size?

[@Indietrix]

I used Adobe InDesign (which tbh might be overkill for a board as simple as this). It’s made for A4 landscape.
