2. Inception
The literal dictionary description is:
The beginning of an organization or
official activity which if you have
seen the movie will you will notice
this theme. The word itself is also
not very well known creating a
mysterious feel to the whole movie.
It makes you think in depth what it
means and what the movie is about,
making it more attractive to a
viewer.
3. Waar
The literal dictionary description of the
closest word is: Armed fighting between two
or more countries or groups, or a particular.
The word war is a very well-known phrase
known to most and experienced by everyone
in one way or another. The twist on spelling it
with a second 'a' makes you think that the
producers want it to stand out. They want to
put a point across that this war is different
and by doing this it makes a larger audience
as people want to what makes it so different.
4. Se7en
The literal dictionary description
of the closest word is: The
number 7
This title is different to others as
the meaning can be unclear until
further analysing. The title refers
to the number 7 and from the
point of view of the audience it
seems to be an important feature
in the film. Once watching the film
this becomes present as it is
about a serial killer who kills
following 7 sins. As you watch as
the murders happen this becomes
more and more through every kill.
The title itself stands out making
people more intrigued to watch
the movie to see what happens.
5. Influence
This influences my choice in a title in many ways.
Firstly, it makes me want to make my title
different to others so it entices people to watch
it, maybe a variation of an actual word. Secondly,
it influences my choice as it means I need a lot of
thought for the title as it means a lot to the
piece. This is important as the piece is only 3
minutes long so will need everything it can get to
stand out.
Above is a still from our final product showing the
name at the beginning.
6. INFLUENCES OF OUR OWN PIECE FROM PAST THRILLERS
For the opening we found inspiration in the movie ‘Taxi Driver’
In the movie, the taxi is shown near the
start and it conveys to the audience the
main basis of the movie. We wanted to
replicate this within our own piece. The car
is first seen in the opening and last seen as
it drives off. This adds an element of chase
and adventure to the piece and the car
drives off into the distance. Furthermore it
introduces the main character like we
replicated.

7. This is also similar with the movie ‘I Am Legend’
During the opening to this film we see two
very similar shots that we have used in our
own piece. They also look similar to the
taxi driver, on the last slide. This shows us
that a number of different films use this
technique to introduce both the mode of
travel and the main character.

8. There is then the obvious influence from the movie ‘Shooter’
Here we see the main sniper character wearing a ghillie suit and we replicated in our
own piece, while showing she is a female to attract a more female audience.
9. Then later on in the scene, we added in a sniper scope from the view of the sniper which
is similar to the movie shooter as it shows the audience the importance of the sniper
within the opening and rest of the film.
