Film mood boards: noir, horror, indie

Mood boards for filmmakers and film students setting the look of a short film. The three boards are noir, with rain-wet streets and venetian-blind shadows; horror, with a foggy forest and an old house; and indie, with a pastel diner and a road at dusk. Each comes as a row of cinematic stills in black frames, a corkboard of pinned references, or a clean pitch-deck grid. Type a different genre, such as sci-fi, and the same boards carry it.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
