Titles

After criticism for my titles in my final draft, I've decided to spend more time researching them. I choose Forrest Gump as it is arguably the most famous drama film in the last 20 years. It's a great movie I personally enjoyed so researching it has been enjoyable.

By drawing inspiration from a successful, professional film it should help me organise my titles and use them effectively. It may be best if I follow conventions for this aspect of editing. However I feel adding the film title at the end would be very effective in our film. I also wish to add my own twist in the titles.

MY TITLES

I want to use Red, Black/White and Blue in my titles. Not only to represent Britain, but being a drama film, my film will explore certain emotions such as anger(red), death/innocence(black/white) and sadness/depression (blue).

Throughout the titles I will highlight certain letters in these colours, these letters will spell out:

John-Jones - the double barrel of JJ. The actual title will only be JJ. But having this little hidden 'easter egg' will reflect on how JJ tries to hid his posh upbringing, but perceptive character/the audience will notice this aspect of him.
