How do you arrange your moodboards?
Do you use some special software, or just whatever comes at hand , from paper to paint and photoshop?

Sometimes it's just a folder on my phone or laptop or I'll lay out a quick montage to print a few hard copies on crappy 8.5x11 paper. Just something to have around. Feb 26 13 08:38 am Link I have always done so on foam core boards or on a 4'x8' white board that I have. I've recently tried using a moodboard app for the iPad, but I still getting used to it. I do use Evernote with shared notebooks to communicate with a team, and make pdf files I can drop into it. Recently started using Penultimate and Skitch to compliment that. If you haven't heard of Evernote google it - it's a free app that runs on your desktop and mobile devices and keeps everything synced up. I did get the premium version, which costs a little, but not much. But, for me, at some point it always comes down to the physical: Feb 26 13 08:52 am Link I use pinterest! And, it's easy to share to the rest of the crew.

Pay no attention to the man behind the MM curtain.

Feb 27 13 03:22 pm Link deleted, not relevant Feb 27 13 03:47 pm Link Normally I setup a moodboard on pinterest, post some shots that I like and fit the theme. The great thing about pinterest is its a collaboration tool so people in the team can contribute their ideas. Feb 28 13 02:36 am Link I have a folder on my computer with thousands of inspirational images. I usually comb through it and pull relevant images, then arrange them in bridge. But since making a PDF in bridge is sort of rudimentary, I usually build them page-by-page in photoshop with images and explanatory text, then merge those files into a PDF in bridge. Complete pain in the ass, haha! I've heard several people mention Pinterest, and I still have no idea what it is, but that word popped up in my dreams last night so I'm going to take it as a sign and look into it!
