Title Ideas

Today we discussed potential title ideas and felt the theme of obsession and unrequited love would be key to the title. Our first point of discussion was the length on the title, we deciding on a maximum of 3 words, so that it would be catchy and stick in the audience's mind. The words would have negative connotations but be connected to unrequited love, in keeping with our film.


Possible titles discussed

-Final infatuation
-Obsession
- Possession
-Inescapable
- No way out


After discussing the titles, we felt that some titles were too similar to existing films: such as Final Infatuation -which we felt was too similar to Final Destination and as a horror film wasn't in keeping with our preferred genre. We found Obsession was already an existing film, with a similar plot line, so we didn't want to use this. Possession had the wrong connotations for our film, associated with exorcisms, soul possession and hauntings.
Eventually we came back to the Final Infatuation idea and felt that Infatuation, by itself was short and snappy enough to be remembered with the audience as well as stay with our theme and plot.
