Developing a title

     After brainstorming my shot list, I realized that I am missing a title for my film. So I decided to do a bit or research to come up with it. 

Here are some of the tips I found from this website:

1. What is the story’s essence?

-What is it about? A girl who is trapped in an abusive household.

-Core conflict? She wants to run away but she is trapped.

-Overall emotion you want to convey in the title? Something that conveys the idea of being “trapped”

2. Characters name?

-Liana (means vine, symbolized how she cant escape her home), will never be mentioned in the opening though

-Alex

3. Location?

-The location of my film is not really important to the story. Plus it’s kinda boring.

4. Situations or feelings?

- “Don’t Wake Up” (character doesn't want her parents to wake up in the beginning)

     -Is it too similar to Don't Worry Darling or Don’t Look Up? 

- “Get Me Out”

    So far I like “Don’t Wake Up” as my title but I worry that its too close to Don't Worry Darling or Don’t Look Up. Also does it describe the essence of the ENTIRE movie? Not really. But I am going to keep thinking of it- I feel like it just needs time.
