First day of FMP (RESEARCH WEEK)

My first step towards research was to look at scooby doo, considering this is the main influence and theme of my project it only seemed logical.  I am mostly intrigued by the monsters and creatures  each episode.  Also the gang are a very important part of the show and a major influence. I want to create my own gang for my final film.  I was originally not sure how exactly I would do this because I did not want to make an exact replica of the characters from Scooby Doo because I thought this would be super obvious and not allow room for me to really create. Before deciding that I wanted to have my final major project be spooky I wanted to look at something to do with music. I find musicians to be very interesting characters they generally have a look or confidence about them that I am drawn too. So a good compromise would be to make my mystery gang become a band! 

My next step Is to compile a solid amount of research to use as inspiration and reference points. I want to make mood boards and get research for the monsters, the girl band, directors and filmmakers, photographers, scenery, landscapes, DIY film sets, processes, creature features, shaggy and scoobys snacks.
