Choosing our film title

We had a group discussion during lesson time about choosing the name for our thriller. We all decided this would be a huge decision to make as the name of the film is extremely important and draws the audience in. You can find out alot about a film from it's name. For example the film 'Love Actually' immediately tells you that the film is a romance. With films such as 'SAW' and 'The Grudge' you know that they are horrors and will be scary from their titles.

We discussed using the title 'Slit'. As jaw dropping as the title is, we decided it would be highly associated with a horror film and decided to go with a different approach.

Finally we came up with the name 'The Watching'. It suggests that their is a victim and a chase. This is a strong name and grips our audience. 'The Watching' is suited to our film perfectly as the girl is being followed and watched throughout. The title is creepy and disturbing.
