Supernatural film opening moodboard

I have created a moodboard of inspiration for our supernatural film. They include film posters, ghosts that appear in films, people in films who are possesed and supernartural objects such as ouiji boards and tarot cards. making this moodboard has helped me to understand the general look and themes of a supernatural film and it has given me ideas for our storyline.

Chosen Genre

Our group chose to do a Supernatural film because we all had an interest in the theme and we had all seen quite a few types of this film, deepening our knowledge of it making it more of an advantage to research and produce.
