Lesson Discussion 4: Developing Ideas and Finalising Tasks

In our 4th lesson we were missing a different group member but with the return of the member who was ill last lesson we could start to fully assemble all of our planning. We began the lesson by summarising the location and planning edit as the returning member offered her contributions and ideas, so we will adapt the planning edit in accordance. I also raised the point I discovered whilst typing up the location details of having potential areas to film the ending scene.
We then set about finalising what we had already done: scanning the storyboards that Bethany drawn, compiling the character details that Beth and I had made and then proceeding to tackle the last remaining aspects that would allow us to have everything on our blogs and completed.

We still have the issue of the title of our film. We decided on the name of "Charlotte Adams" for the girl and wanted to integrate this in our title, despite having the original idea of a one-word, snappy title typical of thrillers, such as "dismissal", "trapped", and the first name of the girl, "Charlotte", but we instead thought a longer title in a style of "The.... of Charlotte Adams" or something along those lines. Beth brainstormed several ideas including:
"The Reticulation of Charlotte Adams", "The Dismissal of Charlotte Adams" "The Ceasing of --", "The Disorientated --", "Disappearance of.." and so on, but none of these seemed to strike us as very catching, so we are continuing to deliberate.

  1. Good update on development. Why don't you do a little investigation into existing film titles (ideally thrillers) to get some ideas. Also you could set up a short survey or poll on your blog to find out what your target audience might want.

    Make sure your own contribution to this is evident.

  2. Since this post we did have a discussion as to what the title will be, although there is still no confirmation. "The Case of Charlotte Adams" seems the most likely at the moment, although we could construct a poll too.
    Again this post was typed up by myself out of lesson time to keep the blog up to date with our progress and is mainly my individual thoughts, apart from the areas where I'm detailing for instance what Beth did in that lesson etc.
