DECIDING THE MOVIE TITLE
Our story is about a young teenage girl who loses her best friend. Their close relationship is portrayed throughout the story when she recollects a series of memories of her friend. We also learn about how her best friend's death came to be towards the end of the story. Since this is a movie based on two friends we came up with 3 movie titles and debated which one most suited out story.
To help us come up with title ideas we started by researching several popular horror films online. From this we found that their titles tend to be very simple yet informative. For example we automatically associate the word "unfriended" with social media based applications like Facebook, Skype etc.

THE RETURN - We thought that this would make a good title as the main character's best friend returns to her as a ghost. However this title is quite vague as questions like "the return of what?" are raised. Also, by having "the" before return makes it seem a little dramatic.
REMEMBER ME - We thought that this would be a suitable title as throughout the film the main character constantly has flashbacks of her best friend so she is constantly being reminded that her friend is dead. However, "remember me" gives a romantic vibe and will not suit the plot of our story. In addition, there is already a movie with the title "Remember me" which is a romantic film.
FRIEND. - We thought that this would be a good title as it instantly tells us that this will be a movie about a friendship. I like that it's "Friend" rather than "Friends" because her best friend has died therefore it is a singular noun. Also the full stop at the end emphasises this idea of loneliness. Because of all these reasons we've decided that this would be the most appropriate title for our horror film.
