New Film Name Ideas





After discussing the name of the film previously, as we reached the end of our filming process, we decided to revisit this.
I had the idea of 'Siren', determined by Siren's which meets the gang culture, meeting the Neo-Noir genre also with the idea of Greek mythology, and Siren's calling men to their deaths. We also decided that the S sound was very seductive and matched the character of the Femme Fatale precisely.
Georgia (whilst deciding names) mentioned the word Shard implying smashed glass, or jewels etc. Emma then mentioned it could be the name for the smaller company distributing the film "Shard Pictures". The pictures side is typical of any films similar to 'Productions', as well as being relevant to our plot i.e. where the Picture evidence is important to the development of the case.
We also had previously decided on Streetlight productions from my initial poster idea as streetlights and a nighttime setting are a typical convention of the Noir genre, and we decided the transition would be flicked like a failing light.
Emma then noticed that the use of the letter S was consistent within our ideas, which we then linked to the biblical story of Adam and Eve and the story of the serpant and fruit where the characters are tempted by something they can't have. This is present within our film i.e. the character Hawke and Kaine in the gang. We felt that this would similarly give another dimension and analytical prowess to our film.
