Film name research

A film has to have a memorable film name that stands out and sticks in the audiences mind. Therefore, deciding the name was as important as the filming.
For example there are many films titles which include the name of the main character; 'Shrek', 'Salt' and 'Hanna'; these are easy names to remember and results in the audience remembering the film better, and means the title completely relates to the film.

They may also be a line or phrase which at a memorable point in the film a character says, 'War Horse', 'He's just not that into you', and 'Inception' 'Inception. 'Is it possible?’ These film names are allowing the audience a slight insight into the key topic of the film.

When deciding our film name we wanted to sit down together and get as many ideas as we could then finalise a few and make a judgement. This was tricky because we all had different ideas on which path we should follow; whether the name of the film was the female lead’s name, whether the name should be included in the dialogue, or something completely different. In the end we decided on a film name from many we all input. We wanted the final decision to be a group one so no one felt unhappy because they didn’t like it. The name of the film had to be eerie to fit the thriller genre, but not give too much away; like in the examples, Salt and Inception.
