Creating a mood board

By precisely projecting images in the plans and storyboards, it can be seen what sort of camera optics or lenses are needed to achieve certain images. In small spaces in particular, it sometimes makes sense to film small groups using wide-angle lenses, since they will not result in precipitous lines and undesirable image distortion. This can affect set construction, so in this case, moveable walls can be included in the design, making room for the camera and thus allowing the use of longer lenses, which will concentrate images in the depth.
