Title ideas

Title idea

Today we all decide that we should come up with a name for our film. We was looking for something that would make the audience interested in the film and also we wanted something that was going to help make the film more thrilling and make the audience on the edge of their seat, we didn't want a title that doesn't fit in with are genre and also if the film title didn't fit with the genre the audience wouldn't want to watch it.

A bad example of a film name would be the ' The revenge of the white rabbit' this is not a good film title for the type of genre that we are doing. The reason why we are researching into the name is because we want the title to have relevance to the genre we are doing. 

When we were thinking about the title for our film we had to think about the title because it is the first thing that the audience will see and we want them to be draw into the movie right at the beginning.

 

As a group we decide on four different names for the title, the four names that we came up with was:

1.Unhinged

2.Forget me not

3.Forgotten

4. I do believe

 

When we was going over each of the different names we thought that 'I do Believe' sounded more like a children's Disney movie rather a title for a psychological thriller. When i asked people what they thought of this title they thought it was childish and would put them off watching the movie, so in the end we thought it would be better if we eliminated that one from the list. We also decide to remove Forget me not of the list the reason be-hide why we done this was because we thought it sounded more than a chick-flick rather than a thriller, and when we was asking around what people thought of this title the feedback that they gave us was it sounded more like a rom-com or a child's cartoon movie. 

The final two titles left was Unhinged and Forgotten these two title where the ones that fitted are film genre the best. Both of these names are really easy to remember its quick and catchy the reason why we wanted a short and catchy title because it is easier for the audience to remember, if we was to chose a longer title the audience woundlt have remember as well as the other short names and it makes the film sound interesting. Having the one word title made it fit are genre more because many psychological thrillers have short sharp titles the reason be hide this is because they want their audience to be intrigue 

When asking around what title was better for our film we needed to ask the people that are in are target audience to use the feedback the reason why was because they are the people that we are aiming are film at, the questions we ask them was what they thoughts were about the names and also which one was better we ask a range of people ageing from 16-18 we asked more girls than boys the reason why we ask more girls was because they were much more straight with there answer, sadly we didn't get a equal amount of boys and girls if we had gotton more boys i think are outcome would of been more different i think we would had a range of different thoughts on what title we should have used some of the opinions would have been mature and immature.  

In the end Unhinged got the most votes the reason why we think that it got the most votes was because Unhinged is more eye catching for the audience to look at and also it make you wonder what the film is actually about. By using this title it makes the audience become more intrigue. With the word Unhinged it means lie a door hanging on the wall or unstable by using this title it also relates with are main character Taylor with her being unstable about some following her and everyone thinking she has gone mad, the idea of the word Unhinged being used at the title we want people to try and relate it to the main character and make the links. The feedback that we got from are questionnaire was unhinged was different from the other names and that it made them more interested to find out what the film was going to be about. 

Overall Unhinged was my favourite title because i like the way it made me think about what the film was going to be about and also it got me thinking about what it reference it had to the plot of the story.
