Planning - Ideas for Film Titles

After coming up with a basic idea for what our narrative would involve we decided to brainstorm ideas for film titles. We wanted the title to be relatively short, and to suitably relate to the genre and narrative. As the initiation of the trailer and film will be based around a game of hide and seek that went wrong, we also considered incorporating this into our title:


-Ready or Not
-Hide and Seek
-Don't Peek
-Countdown
-The Hunt
-Missing



In the end we deciced to use 'Here I Come' as the title not only links to the game of hide and seek, but also makes the audience infer that there will be a quest/hunt for someone or something. It is a definitive statement and portrays that whoever is 'coming' is determined and direct. It also makes the audience question who 'I' is - with ambiguity being a main convention of the thriller genre - leaving them wanting to watch the trailer, and find out exactly who is searching for who.
