Film Names research

When choosing a film name you want something that stands out and it quite easy to remember. The most memorable ones for me are the ones that directly relate to the film itself and therefore you remember them more.

An example of this is ‘Toy Story’ the title already tells you about the film, it suggests that the film will be based around a toy or toys and that it will be there story that you are going to watch. This easy to remember title relates to the film and therefore we remember it easier and we also remember the film easier.



Another example and a more recent one is ‘Rise of the Planet of the Apes’ again this title tells the audience what the film is exactly about and in this case we can tell that the film is about Apes rising against humans or something similar. The title although long is easy to remember and therefore we have the possibility to make a longer title if we needed to.



We decided that when we finally came up with a film name we should create a few then sit down together and finalise them until we have the best one we could think of that not only fits the genre but is also memorable. We will both come up with the film names together so then we could discuss them as we go and share our thoughts on each one.
