- Mood boards are an industry staple, but many entry-level filmmakers know nothing about it. Having trouble getting the ideas in your head on paper? Worried your crew isn't going to understand your vision? These are exactly the types of things mood boards help with. They guide the tone and emotional vision of your film. In this episode, Garrett discusses what mood boards are, how to approach them, and how to best get the thoughts in your head out into the world.

What do you add to your mood boards and style sheets?
Thanks for the video! I'll ALWAYS come back to this when I'm creating my moodboards. So much more important than gear videos!!!
I'm not a filmmaker, but instead a fashion student, and this has helped me understand moodboarding SO SO SO much more than I already did - I've been suuuuuper struggling to figure out how to use a moodboard *as a communication tool* and this has really helped me conceptualise it! I can slap a bunch of images together and tweak them until they look visually pleasing but like, making it to use it as a tool has eluded me thus far. Subscribed! Thank you so much!!! :D
10:00 "I really like these colors" *looks at his T-Shirt :-D
Longsleeve, my bad :-D awesome video!
I didn’t even notice that! 😂
that's the camouflage effect :-D
Soooo goooood! Wuuuuahhh thank you
The first 1 minute is what i'm absolutely going through, all the time. Thank you @Garrett for breaking it down and simplifying the process of building a mood board.
Happy to help Apurva!
Great, practical advice that addresses problems I've had in even conceptualizing a story. Keep up the great work! This is becoming one of my favorite channels.
The kinda information that usually would be gotten after having spent a lot of money. Thanks for sharing it for free my man! Liked and shared. I loved your enthusiasm, kept me hooked till the end, keep it up!

Thanks for the ideas man, gave me some perspective on where to start on the ideas I have in my head, I am a photographer and a illustrator for now and hope to be a film maker in near future, just subscribed to your channel and hope to see more videos like this.
Thanks for sharing!
This really helped with a school assignment of mine! I would have never thought to start with music but it worked! Once I found a few songs I thought fit the film everything else took off! Thank you so much!
Great job!
Thanks man!!! It's a really brilliant video. It cleared a lot of things for me. Now all of of a sudden it's very clear and structured. Keep doing more videos on film making. Will be waiting.

Thank, you Garrett, that was some great advice that can be put to practice. God bless you and your family abundantly always! 🙂🙏🏻❤
Do I have Creative ADD? 😂 Heard that term for the first time and will research it. Cause I have been trying to make music for almost 2 decades now and have never really been able to finish tracks.
How about a moodboard for product? Love this vid. Want more of it
Garrett, I'm in the process of developing my first real Board for a future photo shoot and much of what I was missing is covered in this vid. Fantastic work dude! Appreciate the time and effort you put into this; connections to music (SoundStripe) and color are just what I was needing to add. Hope your Instagram link is current; may have to reach out to get some constructive feedback.
Right on John! Glad I could be of some help. Best of luck to you on your shoot.
Actually orientation of place and time then light is the first things we perceive when waking up
Great 👍
Can you clarify the fourth step? Are you collecting still images with interesting framing, or short video clips? Are you focusing on framing primarily or on other elements as well?
BTW, this video contains some of the best advice I’ve ever seen for creating mood boards.
Happy to help Rob! I don’t worry about video clips as much as I am focused on collecting frames that have the composition I’m looking to replicate.
Nice Haircut!
Thanks!
can i open my eyes already ?:D
Lmao
your the best kept secret and ill share with my friend Athule
who comes first..storyboard or color moodboard, is there a software that does
both, storyboarding and color the shots
I don't think there's a software that does both internally. I do color before storyboards as I like the color to influence the overall visual of my image.
Ganda gajo
I still don't know what a mood board looks like , would've like an example or something.
theres something about ur vibe thats like... i can imagine you being an angry/bad boss of a start up company idk i cant put my finger on it.
edit: ok i just watched a bunch of other explainers on mood boards and their vibes are even worse. everybody has a weird vibe of trying too hard to look modern. so i guess this ones that that bad because the information is actually well explained.
First one 😁
Can we talk?🔥💯🙏🏾🎨✍🏾
Why do you just say "and here's a good color palette I can use for the main guy" without explaining why you think it's a good idea for that with the emotion/or story you have in your head?
Great question! I think I would have gone into that level of detail if I were giving an example of an active project I was working on. Since this was just an example, I didn’t have deep reasoning off the top of my head.
That said, there are a ton of reasons art directors pick color palettes. Could be emotional tone of the character, color theory behind what the subject represents, leaning in to the overall look of the rest of the film, etc. Pixar has put out some awesome BTS stuff on there colors and shapes choices in their art direction. I remember seeing a TED Talk about the movie Up and a short clip from Wall-E on the subject.
