When being presented with a list of descriptive words and being asked to create a mood board expressing one of them with items that are only within the classroom, it is time to get creative. My group chose the word romantic with a purpose especially since it is such a diverse word that everyone is familiar with.
Starting with a silky pink bomber jacket, a magazine ad and a floral scarf as key theme items, we then put smaller objects that we thought represented the word around it. We made sure that although the word has different meaning, the mood board represented all these different feelings into one. I believe the mood board tells a love story about a young, independent girl in her pink bomber jacket. She’s got rosy cheeks and a bright red lip, with a special rustic clock pendant around her neck. She smells of freesia, her favourite flower and that is what makes her different.
It was very interesting to create a mood board, however I do believe that I have potential to get better, as this was my first time. My thoughts on my own work is that it looks disorganized which might make it difficult to understand the story-line.
However, I am very happy with what my group was able to produce in such a short amount of time with creativity as our biggest resource. Next time, I would like to stick to fewer patterns rather than all the ones we went for, as it looks chaotic.
