Our Finished Film Opening

By Gassed Productions

Reasoning behind our title

We chose to name our film 'paraphilia'. However, we were not sure if it was an appropriate word for a film.   To justify the usage of 'paraphilia' I researched recent thriller film titles. What I gathered was that in the past decade, there have been peculiar film titles such as 'insomnia', 'doppleganger' and 'duplicity' which have provoked more intrigue in the film. This is the effect I wanted to achieve by naming the film 'paraphilia'. The story of the film relates to the word, as it is based on a perverted character obsessed with our protagonist, a blonde, female nurse.

In today's lesson we continued the editing from where we left off. Our original film title was 'midnight stalker' but we felt that the title gives away the plot of the story. Me and Harry brainstormed alternative titles. These included 'disturbia', 'obsession', and 'shadows'. Searching online for some inspiration, i found the word 'paraphilia' was very suitable as it relates to the plot of the story. The rest of the group members also liked it and this is what we have chosen as our new film title.
