In all honesty I had never heard of a 'Beat Board' until this week and have really found them brilliant for this first level of Pitch. A Beat board is basically the same as a storyboard but with less detail. It has the idea in around 9 - 16 images but without all the additional detail of shot type, camera angle and speech. It is perfect for a short pitch as you can get your general idea across without going into real depth

Mood Board

1/10/2013

 
I have to admit I don't like mood boards but then it is probably because they are not my forte. They are to get the general gist of the feeling across. Here I try and get all the characters in and that the idea is about phones being a bit of a pest in this day in age. How they are over used by teenagers and that they can be anti-social. I also really try and get over that the colours are to be simple and attractive for a younger audience with the use of mainly primary colours.
